I'm torn.

This was a great way for family to "give me mechs" for Christmas/Birthdays etc. They are being sold at local Shoppers Drugmarts in our town, so they were easy gift card for them to pickup. I got one for Christmas last year...

However, the pricing model didn't jive well with MWO. $20 UGC did not directly translate into any package on MWO without either having money left over, or having to pay into more UGC, since I could not just "add more funds" through the MWO checkout.

I for one am very happy to hear this news. Ultimatepays customer service is junk, there are always problems with redeeming UG cards, there are always problems with Upoints.

I work for a company that also uses Ultimatepay. I handle quite a few billing issues and even Ultimatepays cs sucks when we attempt to contact them to assist a customer.

Just replace Ultimatepay with Karma Koin cards for your pre-paid needs.

:huh: A good little video exploring the ins and outs of the Free to Play business model. What works and what doesn't in the design philosophy.


ah yes, that vid....is very very very very good to watch...and EVERY player and Dev of this game should watch it.


The buying experience is different for every person. For me, every time I see that shiny new Gold Dire Wolf in my inventory...I will glow with satisfaction knowing that was fun to spend to get something so very exclusive. Much like I do with my founders Atlas-D, and every time I see a non found D...I think of the one I have in my Lab that CAN give me Cbills. Same applies to the Battlemaster-1G, however that one is a little more prelevent then the founders one.

I hope not, they're terrible. For those who won't/can't use a credit card, prepaid credit cards and other options are just as easy to pick up as UGC and excess balance can be spent anywhere credit cards are accepted. (unlike excess UGC points balance)


I am going to quote this. I have a valid credit card used for my clan mech purchases. I cannot use this same card to buy MC. Everytime I do it is declined even with proper funds ion the account and it being valid. The UGC's help me by allowing me to get MC without having to figure out this weird debit issue. i can use it for other in game purchases but not this one. So I hate to see these go :)

I would like to know, "Can gift cards (like a Visa gift card) be used to purchase MC?

I understand that the Pre-Paid CC's work. But I'm asking about the Gift Cards.

Thanks for the help ;-)
