A security token is a device that produces a constantly changing one-time password that can be displayed on-screen with the push of a button. Because the device is completely detached from any hardware requiring user authentication, it provides vastly improved security to the user.

A one-time password differs from a typical ID or password in that it is a 6-digit numeric code that is produced and displayed on the security token’s screen each time the token’s button is pushed. One-time passwords are very effective against spyware such as key loggers in that they are only valid for a set period of time and become invalid after they have been used once. Security tokens may be purchased through the Square Enix Account Management System.

A service account is an account that is created and upgraded through registration codes, and is associated with a specific service. A maximum of eight FINAL FANTASY XIV service accounts can be added to a single Square Enix account.

A registration code is a 20-character code that is used to enable a service. Registration codes cannot be reissued, so please store yours in a safe place.

A maximum of eight FINAL FANTASY XIV service accounts can be added to a single Square Enix account. To add another service account, you will need to have an unused registration code and follow the steps outlined in Adding a Service Account.

If you would like to play FINAL FANTASY XIV on different platforms using the same account, you will need to add a registration code for the platform on which you would like to play the game. Select Add a service account from the service account top page, enter your registration code, and then select the service account to which you would like to add the platform.

You will no longer be able to use a service account after it has been cancelled. However, even if you’ve cancelled your service account, you will still be able to use any Options added to the account until their expiration date. In order to use the service account again, it must first be reactivated.
Actions such as the cancelling or reactivation of Options that have been added to a service account can be performed from the Options List, which is accessible from the service account top page. For details regarding Options, refer to the section on Adding Options.
