Square Enix Account Transfer

In order to better safeguard the account security of PlayOnline users and to provide a more streamlined account management experience, we will be transferring all PlayOnline IDs to the Square Enix Account system.

The transfer process will be available in the last half of July, and will give users access to an improved user interface that will allow account management from any web-browser.

Please visit the following link for details on all of these changes.


Please note that all users will have to log in and agree to the transfer by mid fall 2011 (deadline to be announced)*, or they will lose access to PlayOnline and FINAL FANTASY XI until the transfer process is completed.
*Note: We have extended the transfer cut-off date from the original deadline of August 31 in order to implement payment option improvements. Please visit here for more details.

A walkthrough detailing the transfer process has been posted on the PlayOnline website here.

This transfer will require you have a Square Enix Account. If you don’t already have a Square Enix Account, we strongly encourage you to create one in advance here. Customers who already have Square Enix Accounts need only complete the transfer process.

We hope you’ll agree that this marks a significant step towards providing a more secure, user-friendly, and responsive experience.
