Hello, I couldn’t find a clear answer for my question, either on the forum or the FAQ.

I just wanna buy PoF from ANet website. + black lion chest keys, of course

I live in Europe but my bf is American and he wants to pay for PoF using his US account. When we started the purchase, I noticed the price changed from euros to dollars all the sudden. So, if I buy PoF for dollars paid from a us bank/card/paypal/whatever, will the game still work on my European game account?

Or do I have to look for a retailer in my country to be sure it works?

I’m asking only for 100% sure replies, if you’re not sure, then don’t tell me

Thank you.

Equality for the bulge! ^_^

You can contact the CS Team via the ‘Support’ link above/below to inquire if one can upgrade an EU account with an NA expansion. (Though, it may be easier for your friend to purchase a CD-Key and just give you the code to upgrade your account.)

Good luck.

Thank you!

Actually, we found out that it MAY not work. So if anyone has similar situation, better make sure at which country you’re buying it at.

The registration codes shouldn’t be region locked. You should be able to have him buy the expansion from the game store and send you the email with the registration code.

Just to be clear, the “region lock” applies only to registration, it does not apply to the world on which a player participates in the game. So as the kind players explained above, your friend can purchase anywhere, register, and then select a game world.

Have fun!
