How often will you bill me?
You will be billed immediately at signup for your base subscription and on the monthly anniversary of the date you sign up for a game. Billing is charged independently for each game, so you may see charges show up at different times each month. For example, if you sign up for GemStone IV on June 18, then sign up for DragonRealms on June 22, you will be billed $14.95 for GemStone IV on July 18, then $14.95 for DragonRealms on July 22.
Premium services are billed a prorated amount immediately (overnight) upon adding them, and then will be billed on your next billing date.

What if I want my payment to be taken from my checking or savings account?
Many banks now offer debit cards that feature the logo of one of the major credit cards that we accept. While the card looks like it is a credit card, the funds are actually withdrawn directly from your bank account. These cards will display a major card logo on the front and should be entered into our system as if they were regular credit cards.

Can I use my debit card?
Yes! If your debit card features the logo of one of the major credit cards that we accept, then you can use it on our site. You should enter it into our system as if it were a regular credit card.
Cards bearing these logos are accepted by us:

Can I use a prepaid credit card?
You can use some of them. All of our billing transactions are marked as recurring transactions and some disposable prepaid credit cards will not accept recurring charges. Most banks and some stores have rechargeable prepaid credit card which will accept recurring charges and can be used on our website. When entering a prepaid credit card, use your own name and address in those fields.
