To begin I would first like to thank the EntropiaForum community for pulling together to fund this ad campaign for the Entropia Universe Gold Card. My hat goes off you all of you helped. Now on to the informational part of this thread.
There are many people here that will tell you that a Gold Card is a very important investment for EU. most people learn how important after its too late, and they have already been hacked losing everything they worked so hard to get. MA has made a tool available to us to help prevent hackers from getting our login information, its called a Gold Card.
With the Gold Card system actavated on your account you get an additional level of security, not only do you have your login name and your password but you must enter a code that is generated by the card and reader. this code is unique everytime you insert your card into the reader, MA claims that no 2 card and reader combos are the same your card and reader will only work on your account.
One last point i would like to make is that the card and reader are offered at the Trade Terminal (TT) for 200PED, that includes the actual card and reader as well as shipping anywhere in the world. most people claim to have gotten theirs with 1 to 2 weeks from the time of purchase.
For further details I have included the description that is on the virtual item in the next post.

found new info about cards and readers in a different thread and thought i would add it here and remind people again to get a gold card on their account.

Hi there,
I thought I'd give you some info in this thread about the Gold Cards.
Entropia Universe Support wait up to 6 weeks before we consider a Gold Card package lost. In most cases you will receive your order within a week or two after your purchase or after we have sent you a replacement item, but sometimes you have to wait a bit longer. The packages are sent from Sweden and the time it takes before you get it depends on your own location in the world and the postal services the package passes through on the way there.
If you do not wish to wait for a replacement Gold Card or reader to arrive, you can mail or fax us your ID and we will deactivate your Gold Card until you have received the new item.
You can only have one Gold Card connected to your account, so it is not possible to have a spare card at home. You can have how many Gold Card readers as you like though, they can be used with any card.
I hope that answers some of your questions.
Kind regards,
Lina Larsson
Customer Support Director
