Hello everyone,
Due to user requests, we are now happy to offer our users the ability to purchase by phone!
In the past many users had asked for ways to purchase Monthly Collectibles without having to sign up for Paypal. Since then we had been looking for a safe and reputable system, and starting this week, we'll be working with Surfpin for that solution.
question What is Surfpin?
Surfpin is a company that handles "PayByPhone" payment services. A Gaia user would register with us for making a purchase, dial surfpin's 900 number to receive a code from the phone call, then enter the code in the pay by phone page to complete the process.
When a user makes a purchase for Gaia using Surfpin, a $2.99 charge will be placed on your next month's phone bill under the name "Surfpin".
exclaim If you are under 18, you must notify your parent before using this service. This is very important. The phone system is here to provide an alternative means of making Monthly Collectible purchases, but if it is abused, then we will have to take it away. Users under the age of 12 cannot make purchases by phone, sorry.
Click here to make a purchase by phone.
idea Note on Gaia Donation
Gaia is a free website that relies on user purchases to support its hardware, bandwidth, and development costs. The phone system charges $2.99 (Paypal donation grants a donation item every $2.50) because of the extra setup fee. Also, every phone line can only accept one phone donation during our trial period to avoid abuse. In the future, the limit might be changed.
Thanks for your support and for helping to keep Gaia the largest growing community on the web! blaugh
