Can I send a buddy invite to myself for the 21 day trial then use that new acct to sign to the Power of 2 offer? I dont think I can but I want to make sure.

Not sure how to start the PO2 acct anyway. The link in the email takes me to the login page where i can either start 14 day trial or use the buddy system. a bit confusing. How do I start a PO2 acct? Theres no info of any type about PO2 acct on that page. Do I start the 14 day trial and it charges me 49.95 once the 14 days are up? What are my options here?

My account management page has a giant "Power of Two" banner on it. Maybe they updated it late?

My understanding is that if you have an active (read: non-trial) account you can start another account by pre-paying 49.95 for 6-month subscription. After that time, the new account reverts to regular monthly renewal. Has to be done on credit card or debit card.

As usual, CCP cleverly declines to use any monetary symbology in their pricing, so that usually means 49.95 US dollars or 49.95 Euros, depending on your local currency. As has been discussed extensively....that's about a 40% tax for living in Europe.

Hello,

You can use the Power of 2 offer to create a new account for 49.95 USD or Euro (depending on your country of residence) or 3 PLEX, so you won't be able to use it to convert an existing trial account.

To use the Power of 2 offer, click on the button in the mail that you have received and log into the Account Management system. Then you will be taken to the new account creation menu, where you can enter the desired username and password for your new account and select the preferred payment method.

If you pay by any methods other than PLEX, your subscription will automatically renew at a 6-month interval when it runs out. You can change the renewal rate to one, three, six or twelve months at any time before that.

Hope that helps.

Can I buy those 3 PLEX in-game with ISK using my current account (non-trial) and then use those 3 PLEX to activate the "Power of 2" account?

Yes. I think you need to "reverse redeem" them after you bought them with ISK so that they are removed from game and put into redeeming system where they are usable from account management.
