UGC IS RETIRING!
After seven years of having fun helping gamers pay online for virtual
currency in their favorite games, Ultimate Game Card (UGC) will be
retiring later this year. Ultimate Game Cards are in the process of
being pulled from all retail stores and removed from online
resellers. Consumers will no longer be able to buy Ultimate Game
Cards after August 15th, 2014.
The last day to redeem your activated UGC codes will be September 30,
2014. So please remember to redeem your UGC codes before that date.
Related to the UGC product retirement, UltimatePoints (UPoints) will
also be shut down. The last day to redeem your UPoints will be
October 31, 2014.
Please note that some games might stop accepting Ultimate Game Cards
and UPoints before the retirement dates so be sure to redeem your
cards and points sooner rather than later! Click below for an updated
list of games accepting UGC!

The last day to redeem your UPoints will be October 31, 2014.So please remember to redeem your UltimatePoints before that date.
In addition and related to our business focus, we will also be retiring Ultimate Game Card (UGC). For more info on the UGC retirement please go to www.ultimategamecard.com
Looks like cards and ultimatepoints are going bye bye. So you won't be able to buy cards anymore but you might be able to use the service like I have to buy crysta. So if you are just using ultimatepay cards, make sure you use them up this summer and change them to crysta! I hope people got paypal accounts or a debit card to pay for crysta with!
[Edit again] Called UltimatePay; tech told me that if you happen to have a card after the cut off, they will give you a full refund. But since I assume you bought those cards for FFXI..Well, turn them into crysta before then!
