World of Warcraft 60 Day Pre-Paid Time Card - PC/Mac

Love playing WOW easy way to pay if you don't have a debit card or credit card fast able to play for 60 days and can change your option of paying anytime

I see a lot of people confusing themselves with these so I'll explain everything properly. This will give you a Zulian Tiger right away in your mail....................... I KEED I KEED!!! I do have one though :) This is a 60-DAY Game Time Card for your WoW account. You DO NOT save any money by buying these as some are saying. The ONLY WAY to save on your subscription is to buy 6 months at a time through account management. I personally like to do 1 month at a time and as soon as my subscription is paid for a month I go right in and cancel recurring so at the end of the 30 days I have to physically go in and do it again. I do it this way because I like to be able to make sure I'll have available time to play the game and I can't know that a month in advance so I like to go in and physically pay every month. Every so often like now with the release of Legion I KNOW I'll be playing so I buy a game card. In this RARE OCCASION I bought 4 but Amazon messed up and sent me 5 so I have 10 months of WoW but I didn't redeem them all. I will do 2 months at a time. These ARE NOT the kind you have to activate at the register. These are the old school kind where you simply scratch to reveal the code, and enter it in, and BOOM 60 days of game time. The SOLE REASON for buying these is to not have to use a credit card but it doesn't really make a difference because you need a debit / credit card to buy these here. People don't realize like mentioned above you DON'T HAVE TO do recurring charges. If you cancel your subscription right after you pay it you still have 30 days on your account. It just prevents it form auto billing you at the end of the 30 days. There's really nothing else to it. Back in the day when I started playing in vanilla I didn't have a debit card or a credit card so what I had to do was go to the mall and buy a visa gift card from this Simon Gift Card stand for $15 and go home and use that to pay for a month but now it's years later and I have quite a few different credit cards with a credit score of 797. I won't get into all my credit lines but they're high. Anyway....FOR THE HORDE!

I never EVER thought that I would like a game like this. I grew up playing video games, starting with Sega as my first system. I started playing computer games when I went to college because I didn't want to bring any of my systems with me. Let me tell you, I always thought of WOW as a nerd game. I laughed when someone would say they play it because it to me was like Dungeons and Dragons.. or Pokemon... But then my best friend admitted that they played it and it was amazing. I decided to give it a try and I am so glad I did. I can not explain how amazing this game is. I have never played a "never ending" game before and it just blew me away. The landscapes are great and the "world" is huge. There is so much stuff to do it is ridiculous, whether you want to quest... do dungeons... farm for money... do pvp.. there is a ton of things to do. This game is worth the money and it can be very addicting.

I always have liked this method of paying for my subscription vs going through the long process of adding a paypal, or a credit card to an account. I have a credit card still attached to my account but that is mostly for faction changes, etc... But this has been my preferred way of paying for my subscription ever since they changed it to the whole battle.net thing. I really am not to happy with the way that they seem to always change the way they sell you the card, the first time that I ever bought one it just came in a regular dvd case without anything special to hold the card, just a regular case and the card would rattle around in there, then they had the DVD style case but with the custom mount for the card, I somewhat liked that, but I really still didn't get why I had to throw away a big plastic dvd style case every time that I purchased the card. Now I guess if you buy these they come in a little slimmer expansion type box, which to me is like really guys come on, you send me this big box with the same guest past that you have been giving out for like the past 8 years which isn't even required to play anymore, so they are just wasting more material and time. Please get with the program and start just being like everyone else, your cards are not anymore special than xbox live gold cards, or blah blah blah. Just use a thin envelope, or better yet just glue the card to a piece of cardboard like how most companies sell their gift cards. But overall this is a good easy way to pay, works, but really sorry blizzard your cards are not anymore special than anyone else, save like a dollar on the cost to produce your weird packaging for these and discount it for your customers.

When this product arrived I was immensely satisfied to see that the box was smashed some. I thought... perhaps it is trying to immerse me within the game already, for its as if an fellow orc stamped on it in an effort to take my head off with his axe. Upon looting the smashed box I discovered a acceptably rectangular plastic card which I carefully set aside in my bank vault. I then pulled out the other item within the box, a guest pass, and proceeded to toss the box aside as if it were a night elf. I excitedly looked down at the guest pass, ready to invite my friends to raid and rampage a path across the world. I was very excited about the possibilities. Very excited that is, until I realized that it offered 1 guest a chance to play to level 20. You know... something that any orc with half a brain could do without a guest pass since its FREE TO ANYONE ALREADY. Some guest pass.. i thought to myself. I guess its a fairly old and outdated piece of loot. Moving on and pulling the plastic card back out of my vault, i giggled like a filthy human child as I scratched off the back in an effort to reach the code. I hoped that this code would help me instantly conquer my enemies and find valuable loot, but alas it simply gave my access to the world in which that was possible. So now I must quest on, trying to achieve greatness.

Simply put, this is the best alternative when you want to control your subscription payments. As the nature of such, you can pay in advance and activate the card at a later time when you feel it is best. This can help to save you money in different times and seasons when you don't feel like playing. I have this issue since I hop, skip, and jump to different games, be it older or newer. I also want to comment on the great pricing of the card. The standard one month rate is $15.99 last I checked, so you're saving a few bucks. Now, this can be refuted easily by suggesting that you can get a better discounted rate if you purchase the longer subscription renewals but you must be willing to play the game almost every day you spent the money for. I am not one of such players who can. I can attest to all the breaks-some short term and long term ones-over WoW. However, if you do get into the game enough, you may find that paying for a single month will not allow you enough time to enjoy what you're playing the game for. I believe that 60 days at its own sequence is enough time. The best compromise between not having enough time from one month and realizing that you have too much game time that will end up getting wasted when you are well satisfied.

After many months of debate I finally caved and bought World of Warcraft. It's great fun and all that but I found one thing I didn't like: The Payment Method. You are expected to give a credit card number and every time your subscription runs out they go and charge that credit card for the next period. I don't like that that at all. First, I'm not fond of just giving my credit card number for a long term charging option like that. Not just in Warcraft but gyms, online subcriptions and the like. Second, you leave yourself suceptible to being charged when you dont want to.(Like when your trying to square away your credit card) That is why I find the pre paid card the best payment option. You buy what you need. When your running low they let you know and when I finnaly get bored, its over. I dont have to make calls or get online to de-authorize the use of my card. I also think this is a lot safer than credit card subscrptions. The only flaw? This is a LOT of packaging for something that you are going to use just once and throw away. Such a big box for a card the size of a standard credit/phone card and even the card you throw away after you scratch the number and punch it in. They are all the same so its not like you collect them or anything. Despite that, this is the ONLY way I play WoW. Highly recommended.

This item does exactly what it is supposed to do, add 60 days of play time to your account. Five stars right off the bat. I'm mainly rating this item to offset all the people who have chosen to rate the game here (the game is not the product). The 60 day time card does exactly what it's supposed to do; it allows you a way, other than a recurring credit card payment, to access the game. Pros: Easy (just enter the code from the back) No credit card (lots of the young people who play this game don't have access to the card, or if you're like me, you might not be a fan of automatic debits; either way, this is perfect.) Cons: There are bulk discounts available with a credit card (if you are buying at least three months or more) that you can't get with this product. It would only amount to a few dollars in savings a year, but it's something to be considered. This item is a bit over-packaged. The card (the size of a credit card) comes in a full game size box. I'd prefer Blizzard wouldn't handle it that way, but it's not a major issue. You do have to plan in advance if you are going to get this off of Amazon. I have purchased a few of these off here and the biggest issue I have had is making sure I order a week or two prior to running out of time. I could run down to target and get one, but Amazon is easier and I like to support web commerce.
