Prepaid cards as long as they are a VISA, MasterCard, American Express and Discover Card can be used too. And is certainly recommendable for those who worry about the security of using their cards online. That way you only risk the amount of that card.

Is your Credit Card server secure?

Absolutely. Our credit card server is secured with 128bit industry-standard SSL encryption. You can verify this by looking for the golden padlock in the bottom corner of your web browser window.

What appears on my credit card statement?

Your credit card statement will show a billing for 'Spiral Knights' as well as our phone number.

If you need to make manual PayPal payments then that is possible too. Visit the PayPal website, log in to your existing account or set up a PayPal account, choose Send Money, and send your payment to paypal@threerings.net. Be sure to add your account name (not the name of you knight) and what you would like to purchase to the note field. Then we will process this payment as soon as possible and reply to your PayPal payment email with confirmation.

Be aware that PayPal accounts can be set up to make instant payments, or use eChecks which work like regular checks which have to clear before payment is made. eChecks are typically due to the main funding source on the PayPal account being a bank account. If you have funds already in your PayPal account or you fund it from a credit card then you would make instant payments with no delay. For more information on this please see PayPal's Help Pages.

• Get a Payment Code from the PaidByCash website, then go pay cash at one of the locations.
• Receive a Virtual MasterCard loaded with the amount you've paid cash and use that MasterCard for your online purchase.
• Enter the MasterCard number in the credit card number field and select the option you wish to buy.

Keep in mind that your MasterCard may retain a balance after your transaction (depending on the cash value you put into the card), so don't lose it!

We process the payment the same day we receive it, except on weekends. So it really depends on how fast the mail man can deliver it. Players often worry that this takes too long, but our experience is that it's shorter than most think. Also if you make larger payments consider that expediting your letter may be a small part of the payment but it ensures that we receive it faster.

Be aware we only accept payments in US Dollars. But if you have a Money Order or Check made out then you can have it made out in US Dollars while paying in your own local currency.

We can't really recommend sending cash, since it poses a risk when cash is visible in an envelope, so this is at your own risk.

Along with the payment please add the following:

• Your account name (not the knight name).
• Your email address. We will send you a confirmation email when your payment is received.
• Which Energy Package you would like to purchase.
• If you decorate your envelope or include a fun note, we may display it on the office wall!
