    I agree, but even though we are still attached to the continent we dont exist at the moment. This game is very US geared since the video game industry eats ours up for lunch. We are the canuck minority my friend. I want prepaid cards toob:cry MY birthday is in 4 days and what a great gift idea.

    Hello,

    Perfect World Entertainment is the English and United States branch of Perfect World Inc. The contracted deals for the pre-paid cards had to start in the United States because that is where the majority of the user-base is located and where the initial demand for the cards started. As stated before, as the cards get more popular and the demand increases, we will be figuring out new places and regions to carry them. At this time, there is absolutely no guarantee that the Perfect World Entertainment pre-paid cards will be available outside of the United States. I can inform you that your requests to make the cards more available has been heard and that subject will come up the next time we evaluate the card situation.

    PS. Please do not respond to your own threads. Attempting to falsely increase support of your cause will not help the cause as a whole.

    I agree. I am also Canadian (Western) I play A LOT of online games and the population for them generally is BOTH Canadian and USA. In addition this version is for US and Canada so it is only common sense the prepaid cards should be in both countries.

    I, for one, was ready to fork out the 50 dollars for cards but that will not be happening anytime soon, unfortunately.

    The easiest way at the moment to get credit on the boutique would be with credit card, just save up the money, ask a friend/family member to borrow you his/her credit card, give them the money you want to get then use the card, as simple as that :]

    Most banks will give away credit cards to 18 y/o, with a very low credit limit, yet it works P:


    PS:
    And yeah~ I'd like to see these prepaid cards @ mexico ^^ (i live here atm XD) ~ but no rushies.

    If PWI is that important to all of you that you're demanding cards to spend money on

    Then come live in the USA where the rest of the cool people are at ;D

    Time to make a run for the border! b:chuckle 7-11s and Targets carry the prepaid cards. I'm sure there's bordering U.S. states that have 7-11s or Targets. You just need to make a road trip to one. I got my first prepaid card the other day.

    okay so they aren't available outside the U.S. not surprising...same thing occurred with other website thingies i've tried to use with the prepaid card option, so fine. however, i'm not quite sure how the card system operates, but if they are bought in the U.S is it possible to make them redeemable elsewhere? b:surrender

    Yes indeed would be nice if they came to canada and other parts of the world.. its kinda ironic i guess that the other day while in my local drug store there was a rack full of prepaid cards for quite a few websites, such as neopets and the like, and i thought "Ohhh maybe, just maybe" and looked thru the gigantic rack and found nothing for anything PW related :( and since my credit card company charges me an approx $4 "foreign transaction fee" when paying anything outside of Canada, I'd much rather see a prepaid card show up in a store up here and save myself some money.

    We're definitely always looking into expanding our purchase methods, hopefully we can present a payment solution in the future that will be helpful to you.

    Please note that you do not have to actually make a payment to receive ZEN. This can be acquired with in game coins (FREE!!!) through the Gold Trade System at the Auctioneer NPC. There is also a sticky in this section on how to use that system and then you will never miss out on any item! I have linked the post below for your convenience.

    For those who live in Canada and do not want to use their credit cards that linked to their bank acc or do not have a credit card, you can buy Prepaid Gift Mastercard at shoppers to buy zen.

    It works the same as credit cards and you use Paypal option. I've made a thread before asking how to do this and LloydAsplund really helped me out.

    Emails are always answered in the order received so we will get to yours when that point in the line is reached. If this is a processing issue, the email will inform you to contact PayByCash directly so that they can assist you with your Ultimate Game Card issue. Once they help you resolve this and the purchase is processed, the ZEN will automatically be awarded to the account once the signal of completion occurs.
