The Sale says.

$100.00 = 10000 + 1500 +600 + = 12100 ZEN

When I look at the purchasing zen tab in the C-Store ingame, 10,000 and 20,000 does not have a + beside it.

I was planning on buying 100$ worth of zen tommorow with Steam credit, I hope I still get that bonus. Will I?

    I believe the promotion ends at 9AM PST which equates to 12PM EST. Sometimes the sale ends a bit early though. For example, there were a few complaints that the costume sale which was suppose to end on Dec 26 @ 9AM PST actually ended earlier. Maybe 1 hour earlier, I don't know.


    I don't use Steam so when I click the Buy Zen button my browser launches and goes to the Arc Billing site. From there I can put in an order to purchase Zen. I tested buying $20, $50 and $100 worth of Zen and I can see the bonus Zen prior to clicking the Purchase button. I never had problems buying Zen this way.

    Why on gods green earth would you waste $100?! oO

    The game isn't worth it to drop that much on. I can see $10 here, maybe $20 there, spread over time...

    Just wanted to pipe in for moral support for the OP: Dude, I hope it works out for you. People like you are keeping this game going, mate - and I hope they allow you to give them more money.

    It is a shame that PWE/Cryptic's new security protocols are causing players/customers so much apparent grief. I'm sure it's a process that will eventually be better streamlined.

    I used to buy Zen whenever there was a sale to help support the game, even with the monthly stipend, but I stopped once PWE/Cryptic took away the in-game Dilithium store & altered a few items after purchase. I haven't bought Zen since, but when I used to I occasionally would buy the 5,000 with bonus of 1,050 Zen package. I probably would've been a sucker & bought the 10,000 instead, but since it never offered anymore bonus compared to the 5,000 I never fell for it.

    Here's to hoping 2015 offers us STO players more listened to responses from PWE/Cryptic.

    STO is still a good game, easily fun without spending a dime, but it also doesn't hurt to spend a little, if can be afforded, for more fun. Best advice I ever got in-game was years ago when just beginning as a free player, was erase my level 12 toon, restart, & purchase a (1) month subscription as I leveled to 50. It's definitely worth the slight cost. I'm also still pretty happy with my Lifetime purchase though I'm cautious nowadays of the future direction of STO.
