First of all i am from Romania, Europe ...
I m using OneBip to buy Ap... i get frustrated when i find cupons from Aeria with bonus ap but that i can't use (codes for buying with Paypal...)
I would like very much that Aeria offers also cupons for people that use sms to buy Ap or implement a tired system
u buy 10k Ap u get 1k Ap,
u buy 20k Ap u get 2k Ap,
u buy 30k Ap u get 3k Ap free...for people buyng Ap with SMS.
10 Ap bonus for 1000 Ap = 10$ that i bought ...make me think twice before buying Ap this way...and only for tired ... not telling that bonus can be redeemed after 3 months ...
So i please GM s to consider and offer a greater bonus or cupons for people that use this payment method.
I don t understand why Aeria offers a greater bonus (+1200 Ap or +5000 Ap) for people using Paypal...and only 10 Ap for each 1000 Ap bought with sms. So 300 Ap bonus for 30k Ap bought with sms...is almost insignifiant bonus(lol not telling how many sms u must send to buy 30k ap...it is a tough task lol)...i wonder what bonus got someone that used Paypal to buy 30k Ap.
Aeria must not make big differences even between people that buy same amount of Ap...?!!!(Paypal Ap buyers have also a Ap discount event just for them lol!!!!) REMEMBER that prepayd cards are not available in Romania..at least i couldn t find to buy ...
In Shaiya are differences between people that buy or not buy Ap. ...lol...but it is good to notice that there are also big differences between Ap buyers too...
I wish to say that if a Shaiya player from Romania (average salary 300 euro/month) buy 30000 Ap~230 Euro is quite different from a German or French player (1100-1500 euro /month or more) that buy 30k Ap (don t know average salary in US or UK)...Not telling how many people in Romania use paypal for online payments...not so many as u may think...
Now maybe Aeria will wish to analyse how many people from Eastern Europe(Romania, Bulgaria..) play this game...how many of paypal users play from there...same analysys can be made also for other countries (i don t like to say poor countries)...Not taking in account player's country, economy and not knowing which is the most used payment method...all this to increase and encourage Ap sales make me think this is bad marketing...
I remember some great words : The client must feel happy when spending his money ... and seller must feel happy cause his client is happy...this is also a goal to achieve...
But things can still be made better...
Thank u
