Digital. You can see they are sold out here.
Edit: And here's a screen-grab of my checkout screen. Make sure you have the "DLC promotion" under qualifying offers.
To people living in Canada wondering how to get in on this promo:
It doesn't work on Amazon.ca so you have to buy something on Amazon.com. I bought the digital 60 day time card here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00O15486W/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_d_asin_title_o00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
You need to use a US VPN (I used Tunnel Bear) to add the item to your cart. Make sure there's the message telling you that it's eligible for the Black Fat Chocobo Mount DLC when you check out. The time card code will be sent to you immediately after payment. The DLC code will take up to 2 days.
Where does it say that's a requirement exactly? All I saw was:
Any purchase of $19.99 or more from the video game category on Amazon.com will qualify you to receive an Amazon promotional code that will grant you six exclusive in-game items!
The 60 day timecard here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00O15486W/ref=s9_simh_gw_g367_i1_r?ie=UTF8&fpl=fresh&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=desktop-1&pf_rd_r=XSY2MTZDV65NWPC2QYQV&pf_rd_t=36701&pf_rd_p=6aad23bd-3035-4a40-b691-0eefb1a18396&pf_rd_i=desktop - is under the Video Games category, and says "Sold by Amazon Digital Services LLC"
I'm just curious where people are getting this from, does it only apply to physical shipments? Where does it say so?
I also see it on the digital version of the timecard, although it shows up a bit differently: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00O15486W
Edit: I bought this and got the promo code
Yes, confirming what the other guy said, 8 AM today my time, I went to the site and clicked add to cart and then check out. Was able to use my Canadian address and TD card to check out without any extra hoops or hassle. this item right here. It's not region locked even though I can see the thing you circled on the page. It still lets you buy it anyway!
Appears to be back now, https://smile.amazon.com/Final-Fantasy-XIV-Online-Time/dp/B00O15486W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1493329708&sr=8-1&keywords=ffxiv+time
Shows it correctly now.
Codes will be sent by email within 2 days of purchase
hey there , its back in stock https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00O15486W?ref=em_1p_0_ti&ref_=pe_2409890_229390510
I just want to confirm with someone who has already done it. But if i buy this
they will first send me my time card cause it is digital, and then i have to wait about two or so days for the mount code correct? it says Vista and i dont use Vista, I dont know anyone who uses Vista... I use Windows 8. That also should be fine yea?
I'm not sure which one they got, but this one shows it for me:
Not true. I'm Canadian. I bought this digital 60-day FFXIV Time Card which states that the promotion applies (you have to purchase from amazon.com, not amazon.ca): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00O15486W/
To get the Fat Black Chocobo code sooner than the "up to 2 days" that they mention, I opened a chat with an Amazon.com tech support agent and asked for my promotion code, which they promptly gave me.

I can confirm I bought:
And received the promo items. So digital time cards work, at least that one does.
This promo confuses the FUCK out of me some claiming getting it with https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BXONG7G/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_d_asin_title_o00?ie=UTF8&th=1&fbclid=IwAR30QGQVPjvSE_QSsEZFA32WF7fk-2Bvx0g3Gh5Ssw_ZVbjLumdujpNP0Wg yet i tried with Crysis, didn't work. (lucky i got refund) id rather buy this to be safe but I see no choco promo b4 checkout yes i see all have the promo listed. https://www.amazon.com/Final-Fantasy-XIV-Online-Time/dp/B00O15486W/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=ff14+game+time&qid=1560717559&s=videogames&sr=1-1 im just trying to buy it via 5-30$ gift cards. Hell if the 5$ method really works ill send a damn gift card. I just want the black chocobo code. Amazon's lost me with a customer due there false advertisement or lack of transparency with this. I don't trust them.
Based on other comments, it looks like you weren't eligible.
Honestly, your best option is to just buy a 60 day game card. For $29.99 you get 60 days added to your sub and you get the Black Chocobo mount. If you have auto pay enabled for your sub, you won't be charged the fee for 60 days (you will still be charged if you have additional retainers, but only the cost of the retainers).
What codes does this work on? I see a bunch of different 60 day time cards for FFXIV, listed for different expansions and different prices.
EDIT: https://www.amazon.com/Final-Fantasy-XIV-Online-Time/dp/B00O15486W This should work. I had the message at checkout. Will confirm once I get the mount.
Here is the page for the NA timecard.
Edit: Thanks mods for fixing the thread!
As for the Timecards, they seem to be going out of stock only temporarily as they restock their supply of codes from SE. They've come and gone about three times now so just be patient and check back in 30 minutes to an hour. The promotion info returns to the timecard page as well when it's in stock so there's nothing really going on besides running out of codes temporarily.
Good luck!
Buying a 60-day time card does count. Just make sure it gives a link to the promo on the page of the time card you are buying (like this one). The items are given to all characters on your account.
I just went on amazon.com and searched for the time card. Here's the link
https://www.amazon.com/Final-Fantasy-XIV-Online-Time/dp/B00O15486W
This is what it shows for me on that page but I was still able to buy it even though it says USA only. You can see in the screenshot I have a Canadian postal code beside my name
I haven't got the code yet for the mount but it can take up to 3 days. I'm not worried about it because I did the exact same thing with the nimbus cloud mount before
Edit: also proof I've bought this time card 3 times (once as a gift for someone else, once for the nimbus and now once again today)
Hey FYI not sure if you got the Amazon promotional items yet, but I actually just bought a digital 60-day time code today and got the DLC items immediately after. I'm not sure if they changed the rules or what, but apparently digital time cards are counting now! Wanted to let you know since we were in the same boat!
https://www.amazon.com/Final-Fantasy-XIV-Online-Time/dp/B00O15486W I can add it to my cart this very second, in fact I just did to be sure.
https://gyazo.com/b0f1f6db9ac0553bb4ffa3b5f447182c So uh, I guess you need to get real.
I can see the time card but I dont see anything about the chocobo mount on the product page. Am I missing something? Just want to know if it'll work before purchasing https://www.amazon.com/Final-Fantasy-XIV-Online-Time/dp/B00O15486W/ref=sr_1_1?crid=312WOX092KLR5&keywords=final+fantasy+xiv+time+card&qid=1560698597&s=gateway&sprefix=final+f%2Caps%2C159&sr=8-1
I contacted customer support and was given my code directly. I ordered from this listing exactly Final Fantasy XIV Online: 60 Day Time Card [Online Game Code] https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00O15486W/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_PhObDb8Y7W48Z
I asked if other people would receive their codes via email, and the rep said that no, they need to contact customer support to receive their codes. I also suggested to the rep that Amazon or Square Enix make a public announcement via Twitter or other social media to clarify. 👍 hope this helps!
Ugh this is the promotion tag:
Edit: For example, this:
the seller needs to be amazon, not a 3rd party seller.
A game like this also works:
Thank you for all that, so if I pay for one extra retainer and I just buy this
It will just add 2 months to my sub time and then for the next 2 months my credit card will just get charged with the cost of my retainer?
Also do you happen to know if there's anything special I have to do for the promotion? It does say it there but at checkout it doesn't say anything. Does it just go through automatically?
