Buy Final Fantasy XIV Gift Card with Crypto

Final Fantasy XIV is Square Enix's subscription MMORPG — famously relaunched as A Realm Reborn in 2013 after the original 2010 version was scrapped, and expanded since through Heavensward, Stormblood, Shadowbringers, Endwalker and Dawntrail. One character levels every job in the game, so an account is a long-term thing, and playing it means keeping game time on the account.

This card is that game time, and it is worth being exact about what it is not. It is not wallet credit, and it is not an in-game currency like Gil or Crysta: redeeming it adds a block of 60 days to a service account and nothing else. Square Enix's recurring plans are Entry at $12.99 a month (one character per world, eight in total) and Standard at $14.99 (eight per world, forty in total), so a 60-day block is roughly two months either way. Time from a card does not auto-renew and needs no payment method on file — if a recurring subscription is already running, the days queue onto the end of it.

Three requirements decide whether a code will work, and all three sit on the account rather than on the card. First, it needs a Square Enix account that already owns a registered FFXIV licence — a Starter or Complete Edition. The Free Trial cannot consume game time: it has no service account for days to be added to, which is the single most common failed redemption. (The trial itself is unlimited in length up to level 70 and through Stormblood, which is why so many people are on it.) Second, Steam: a service account registered through Steam buys its game time inside Steam, and a Mog Station code will not apply to it. PlayStation and Xbox licences do register to a Square Enix account and are managed from the same Mog Station. Third, the service region — a North American code belongs on a North American licence, a European code on a European one.

The reason to prepay rather than subscribe is what is missing: no card stored with Square Enix, no recurring charge to remember, no renewal after someone stops playing. Buying it here adds no account of ours and no identity document either — a delivery email, a payment in the coin you already hold, and the code arrives in about eleven minutes once the transaction confirms on chain. Square Enix's smallest game time SKU is under this catalogue's $50 floor, so orders are made up of whole 60-day codes: $60 is two of them, $120 four, $300 ten.
