Buy a DayZ account and start surviving

This is where you can buy a DayZ account — an NFA Steam account that already owns the game from Bohemia Interactive. The account is delivered automatically right after payment together with its loader: no sign-up, no waiting and no full price for a copy of the game. A few minutes after checkout you are on the Chernarus coast with a flashlight and a can of beans.

DayZ: survival where every encounter matters#

DayZ is a hardcore survival sandbox set after an epidemic. The world is overrun by the infected, food and ammo are scarce, and other players can become allies or your biggest threat. You manage hunger, thirst, body temperature and disease, scavenge gear, repair vehicles and build bases.

The base game includes Chernarus, a map of about 225 square kilometres. Livonia and Sakhal are sold as separate DLC: the account guarantees the base game, while DLC is not promised. That is enough for servers on the base map and for most modded servers with their own maps.

Freedom is what DayZ is about. Some players stay peaceful, trade and help newcomers, others set ambushes near airfields, and others spend months building a base with their clan. That is why players often keep several accounts: the main one for the long game and a second one to try a new server or play with a different group.

What an NFA DayZ account is#

NFA stands for Non-Full Access: a Steam account without full control. You play it as your own — pick a server, create a character, build a base and survive. The password and email stay with the original owner, and the loader that comes with the account signs you in. That is why an NFA account costs noticeably less than a copy of the game in the Steam store.

What you get with the purchase:

• a Steam account that owns DayZ: the base tariff, 500+ or 1000+ hours, or a long-inactive owner;

• the Steam login and hours played on the order page;

• the account's loader, which signs you in by itself;

• a 24-hour warranty from delivery and a check from the order page.

An NFA DayZ account suits players who want a second profile for another server or clan, those who want to try DayZ before buying their own copy, and anyone who lost access to an old account and wants to get back to surviving without the extra cost.

Which servers you can play on#

An NFA account gives you every type of DayZ server — just like a regular copy of the game:

Modded servers download the mods they need through the DayZ launcher or the Steam Workshop — there is nothing extra to buy.

If DayZ is new to you, start on an official server or a community server marked as beginner-friendly. The first goals are simple: find water and food, a backpack, a knife and something to defend yourself with, and leave big cities and military bases for later. Your character is stored on the Steam account, so signing in again through the same loader brings you back to the same survivor. If a server only lets in experienced players, take a tariff with hours, which Steam shows on the profile.

How to buy a DayZ account and start surviving#

1. Open the NFA DayZ account product and pick a tariff.

2. Enter your email and pay in crypto through Crypto Bot.

3. Once the payment is confirmed, the account is checked and delivered automatically: its login and loader appear on the order page.

4. Download the loader and run it, and Steam opens on the account you bought. The loader page has the details.

5. Install DayZ from the library, choose a server and survive.

Prices are charged in US dollars and you see the final amount before paying. After checkout the account is held for your order for 30 minutes. There is nothing to register: if you lose the link to your order, request it again for your email on the order lookup page.

Warranty and keeping the account#

Every account is checked automatically before delivery, and the warranty lasts 24 hours from delivery. If the account stops opening, the game is missing from the library or Steam asks for a confirmation code, press "Check account" on the order page: when the problem is confirmed, a replacement from the same tariff is delivered automatically.

DayZ is protected by BattlEye, and a cheating ban applies on every server. The warranty does not cover such a ban, so:

• do not run cheats, scripts or loot finders;

• do not try to change the password or email or add a phone number;

• sign in only through the loader;

• follow the rules of your server — a ban from its admins is not lifted by a new account.
