Every new game account starts off with an account upgrade lasting 7 days. After those seven days, the account turns into a free account unless the owner of the account (or anyone else) upgraded it beforehand.
After your account upgrade expires your account becomes a free account, free accounts shows advertising and are limited in some features, compare here.
Upgrading will improve your gameplay, removing site advertising and add extra features to your account. See the upgrade page for more information.
This is needed in order to ensure the long term success and sustainability of the Astro Empires game, to the benefit of all players. This allows us to have fast and reliable servers, remove most game limits, and help us to improve this game.
We accept payments via PayPal, a third party payment processor, which allows you to safely use your credit card to upgrade your account. It is also possible to pay via Wire Transfer, Western Union, or by Phone (DaoPay).
When you checkout via Paypal you do not need to have a Paypal account, you can simply enter your credit card information at some point and pay that way.
Try to contact Paypal directly if you are having problem with your credit card, for example. If you are still unable to upgrade, you can pay by alternative ways such as wire transfer or Western Union (available at most post offices).
If you pay using your Paypal account or credit card via Paypal, the account upgrade takes place immediatly after payment. If you pay by paypal eCheck, those payments takes about 4 business days to clear from a U.S. bank, payments from a non-U.S. bank usually takes more time. If you pay via wire transfer the account upgrade takes about 1 or 2 business days. If you pay via Western Union the account upgrade takes about 1 or 2 business days.
If you have upgraded via Paypal eCheck, those payments take several days to clear, try to check your Paypal account on that. If you have not tried to upgrade via Paypal eCheck please contact us.
This is most probably because you understand a different date format, for example 05-10-2007, mean day 5 of October 2007, as this is the date format (day-month-year) used in most European Countries including Portugal where the game is established. In the US and other far-western countries, the date goes month-day-year.
