With the focus on CSC, Ultimate Game Cards is going out, and pay pal and stripe being the only other options to buy CSC with, would it be economical to have Subeta's very own game cards in mass markets like the now soon to be rendered useless UGC?
I know I would spend more money on special art for Subeta cards to buy CSC. and the 10, 20, 40, 60, 100 cards? -is that too many?
Thoughts? Add-on suggestions?
It could also bring a wider audience to online games for Subeta too.
who first brought this up.
: Suggested below that the cards are collectable. Different images of different pets for them.

Actually I think its a brilliant idea and it may actually benefit the site better.
With people trying to get csc for Cash Shop sales and then Stripe or Paypal being slow to go through this would definitely be a good alternative option for people.

And what if they were designed in such a way that they had various pet species on the cards..?
Oh! I want to grab a Popoko!
I think this idea has some great potential.
I think that would be really cool. I also really love Jeheace's addon about having the pets on them. You could collect them even though you are spending them xD
Edit - Also, maybe if you buy them you get a special achievement or something
It would be different, that's for sure.

Adding on to Jeheace's suggestion; How about pet art that's drawn exclusively for those cards instead of using the pre-existing images from the site? That way the cards would be more desirable instead of just the "Well I really want that Fester card, but, I already have that exact-looking Fester on the site."
I would totally support this idea! :D and I like the idea of special art done exclusively for the cards. :) Perhaps even use site characters? I know I'd love to see a subeta cash card with jaxon skelly on it! XD

I think that would be a bonus to wanting to buy a card. Somewhat collectible, but for a good use as well! I love that.
As for what another user mentioned about getting an acheivement for getting them, that could be a nice bonus too. Maybe a few tiers for it. some other games I play they give a bonus item. Maybe the item could be something small, a new one every month or so?

I use Stripe currently but I would absolutely buy these type of cards if they had special art on them. I don't like the idea of tying an achievement to them though, I thought I read somewhere that they were trying to get away from giving achievements for spending real money? I could get behind a bonus item though, something like they do already for Stripe and Paypal, but more consistent instead of just one every couple of months or so.
I have a feeling it's a lot more complicated than just accepting money directly like UCG or PayPal does.
If this were possible/feasible I think it would be neat. Considering how small the site is, putting physical cards out in retailers isn't something I think the site would be capable of. IIRC the physical charms they sold was a nightmare to deal with.
Defintely no support on adding achievements for it.
I really love this idea. I use stripe currently but I would totally buy the cards if they were available in canada. I don't think I've ever even seen a UGC in my area
I must say I am not fond of the achievement myself. As for the feasibility, I don't know the full inner workings of the site to say it's possible or not. I can only hope it is, and maybe something that can be at least looked into to see if it can be done or not.
it took a long time for UGC to be sold in a walmart near me, and then the corner store had them.
I would guess a bigger store would have to come in play somehow for a supplier, or something.. I don't know the ins and outs.... :(
