Why is my Square Enix confirmation code not working?

Some of the reasons why you may encounter Square Enix error 601 are:

• Insufficient funds in the account – You may encounter a payment error if there are not enough funds in the account.
• A temporary issue with your card or bank – Sometimes, payment errors may show up due to a temporary glitch with the debit/credit card or the bank.
• Recurring payments not allowed – If the card does not grant permission for recurring payments.
• If your account is temporarily blocked – Chances are, that your account is temporarily locked off, and hence, you see the error.
• Incorrect card details – If you entered the incorrect card details, mog station would decline your payment.
• Conflicts with the browser addons or extensions – It could be possible that the Square Enix error 601 shows up due to interference caused by the browser addons or extensions.
• If using VPN or proxy – If using a VPN or proxy on your system, it can interfere with the payment process.

How do I fix Square Enix error code 601?

Before you proceed with the primary troubleshooting methods, you may want to try a few preliminary checks to rule out other possibilities:

• Check if your internet connection is up and running.
• Remove any VPN or proxy service.
• Check if the payment details entered are correct.
• Use an alternate browser.
• Check for any server issues with the bank.

If the above steps do not help you fix the issue, here’s what to do.

1. Check for any issues with the debit/credit card

1. Make sure your card/bank has enough funds to complete the transaction.
2. Check if the card details entered are correct.
3. If the card is expiring in the current month, then the FINAL FANTASY XIV game considers the card as expired.

Or, you can simply use another debit/credit card to complete the payment process for Final Fantasy 14.

2. Double-check for any browser issues

1. Check if the browser is updated to the latest firmware version.
2. Make sure to remove any add-ons or extensions and try again.
3. If using Chrome, then disable any browser extensions in incognito mode, and then try making the purchase in incognito mode.
4. Use alternate browsers like Firefox, Safari, Brave, etc.

3. Pay through a Steam account

1. Go to the Square Enix website and then navigate to the add in-game time through your Steam account in the add game time option on the SE site.
2. Here, pay through your Steam account on the steam website itself.
3. The SE site will now redirect you to the payment page, and you can now pay using a debit/credit card as a one-time purchase.

You may also test your internet connection speed or use an alternate WiFi network, or a mobile hotspot.

Or, you can use alternative payment methods like buying Crysta through PayPal or using Game Time cards or Amazon Time cards for payment.
