So do my normal thing and paid crysta my card shows 25.88 charged from square Enix yet no new crysta yet. I'm assuming it's because my credit card shows pending but this is the first time I've seen no update on my crysta amount. Anyone else experience this before?

Try paying for your Crysta using your credit card but through Paypal. I never experience any delay whatsoever and the transaction is instant in most cases.

Paypal is the way to go with a lot of transactions online, especially if they're digital purchases, generally no tax.

So update

The first transaction was with my credit card USING PayPal. (I usually use PayPal goes through that card.) pending on credit card and no updated crysta still.


Said *** it tried my checking account debit card not with PayPal for 5.00 worked instantly updating my crysta for 5.00

PayPal is the issue

I actually had to borrow a card one month due to some holiday the bank was closed for on the day I needed to deposit money. I used it to buy Crysta so it wouldn't automatically charged the borrowed card the next month. Crysta came in and charged card immediately. This was for XIV via Mog Station but I wouldn't think XI's billing would be too different.

I dunno.

Just be glad you didn't have repeated credit card transaction failures directly on the SE Account Management site. There's a pretty good chance your account would have been suspended for a day or two.

Yeah I won't be surprised that the PayPal goes through in 2 days. Such bs
