Transfering store points

Posted

Hello, sorry if this has been addressed before but i could not find it in search and cant get on the game at the moment so I will ask the players.

situation: I have a friend who i've gotten into CoH, sadly he has more important issues mundanely and cant afford a VIP account. I want to help him but i do not know if it is possible to transfer store points for purchasing stuff in the store to him (or his account).

Is there a way to do this?

Sadly, at this time, there is not.

The best advice I can give you is to just buy him a game time card to become VIP. Or, alternatively, give him 15 bucks.

You can pu money on a prepaid credit card and send it to your friend.

Hmm. Yeah if you don't know him in Real Life or have an address for him that will be a problem. Have you considered putting money on a pay pal account for him? We are supposed to be able to use pay pal for purchases.

Other than that I can't think of another alternative to help out your friend.

get the prepaid credit card then just email your friend the CC numbers and expiration dates etc for whats needed for payment then you don't have to wait for mail or anything silly like that.

You should be able to buy a VIP sub using Paypal, as I used to do it all the time. (Well, this was back before freedom, but I'm sure you still can, the option is still there)

Not sure about the game store though, but the main issue here seems to be a VIP sub.

I have only used my PayPal account for all my purchases, so far. So my suggestion is:
1) Get you and friend a PayPal account if you don't have one yet.
2) Transfer some money to the account of the friend.
3) Have friend spend it on store points or VIP.
