Euro vs. U.S Dollar (update)  

Posted by RedCross in ,

If you are in the position where you can choose to pay with USD, GBP or Euros, after reading this post you will most likely decide to pay from now on with GBP. You get many more coins by using GBP than using Euros. If you cannot link your credit-card with your paypal acccount, they still offer a domestic money upload possibility. Paypal then would take aprox 3% fee, but hey you still will end up getting ~28% more coins. It's still worth it! Values are compared in Euros as this league is from Bardo, where most of the people are from Europe.

If you have linked your credit-card with your paypal, lets see how much more you will get if you pay with GBP:

highest paypal packages 2 months ago :
100 euros package rates including bonus (13960) -> 139,6 coins/€ (+/- 0% coins)
100 USD package rates including bonus (11050) -> ~160,82 coins/€ (15,2% more)

highest paypal packages today:
100 euros package rates including bonus (13960) -> 139,6 coins/€ (+/- 0% coins)
100 USD package rates including bonus (11050) -> ~154,07 coins/€ (10,7% more)
50 GBP package rates including bonus (10600) -> ~183,8 coins/€ (31,6% more)
1000 SEK package rates including bonus (11380) -> ~115,11 coins/€ (17,5% less)

PayPal exchange rate Oct 21, 2009 (2 months ago)
1 Euro = 1.45536 USD USA Dollars

PayPal exchange rate Dec 21, 2009 (today)
1 Euro = 1,39433 USD USA Dollars
1 Euro = 0.867024 GBP British Pounds
1 Euro = 10,1154 SEK Swedish Kronos

This situation comes up because exchange rates change over time, and it's been a while since Acclaim updated the number of coins in each of their packages. They really should look at this more often and I would suggest an email campaign to the support people to get this changed. After all, not everyone has a credit card or even a paypal account. Send your email to 9dsupport@acclaim.com.
