Quick question regarding preorder payment

Hi.

Looked through the other pre-order related threads but couldn't find the exact information I was looking for,
I would like to preorder the game as it's looking great and I want to support Stardock (big fan of galciv/sins also) but ran into a problem as the pre-order option doesn't appear to accept Paypal, which is my preffered method of payment as I do not currently own a creditcard.

Would I run into any problems if I let a friend of mine use his CC to order the game for me using my email address/account information? Or what is the best way to go about this? (The checkbox 'order for a friend' and use his own information/stardock email etc?)

Really wan't to make sure so nothing gets messed up for the beta.

Thanks for any help you can offer!

This is the way I would go.  :)

Aye it does sound obvious i'm just worried the game will get registered to my friend in Impulse, as he also had some problems with that before when ordering the GalCiv expansion, i.e. used a different email to order with as he had used for the earlier galciv games, and had to get that sorted by Customer Support.

I´ve pre ordered Demigod with a different email adress as my account at stardock/impulse is combined with.
Will this cause any troubles? I hope not.

I expect what'll happen is that they'll send you an e-mail with the game key, which you'll then register in Impulse.

To save having to do an account merge when the beta hits, I'd contact [email protected] now and have them change the email address on your order to the one you use for your account.

Well I had my friend order with the 'For a friend' option and he was indeed able to fill out my details (name/email etc) in a seperate screen, so that seems to be working fine. Thanks for the help guys, hopefully see you all in the beta soon :)
