SWTOR Subscription Code (Will it work with Standard Edition?)

Question

Ok so it was yesterday that I posted one of my posts in which I had a problem with subscribing to SWTOR and today I tried again and it still didn't work. So I started looking around on the internet and started poking at some ways around paying for subscription instead of actually directly buying a subscription from the SWTOR store. And so I'm looking around and I found this... https://www.origin.com/en-us/store/buy/54035/pc-download/base-game/standard-edition#details

So my question is... will this work? Could I just pay for this instead of directly buying from SWTOR? How will it affect me? Is it technically the samething? When I buy it... do I receive a code to redeem at SWTOR on my account? And if I get this and redeem a code (if it is a code) will I get the same error message and have wasted $15? Also if it is a code, how would I redeem it? Thank you guys for your help and I hope to start playing SWTOR after getting a subscription! 🙂

That item is meant to be a one time purchase per account, not to be used as a recurring purchase. &nbsp;If you do not wish to subscribe directly via the swtor.com site you can either purchase a 60 day time card from swtor.com or from amazon.com as found here:

http://www.amazon.com/Star-Wars-Republic-Prepaid-Subscription/dp/B00HWYDM3O/

They will email you a code that you can then apply directly upon purchase of the time card, they won't actually send you anything in the actual mail.

Oh ok. I honestly don't care if it's gonna be a recurring payment thing. In fact I wanted it to be a one time payment. And so if I buy the 30 day subscription from Origin, will it work as normally, it's not recurring and is a one time purchase only? Also if I do buy this and redeem the code... will it give me an error like it would if I were to buy directly from SWTOR?

The purchase from Origin is for the game itself. &nbsp;it's not meant to be bought more then once per person per account. &nbsp;To remain a subscriber, you need to either purchase a subscription either recurring or one time when you choose to from swtor.com directly or buy a 60 day time card from a 3rd party like amazon.

Also if I do buy this and redeem the code... will it give me an error like it would if I were to buy directly from SWTOR?

As long as you enter the correct code, no it will not give an error.
