You can get bigger ships.
Come on, who doesn't want to fly a humongous Dreadnought?

To clarify: Using your 14 day free trial coupon is the same as if you paid for it. Prestige will be gained as normal, you will go up ranks and be able to get bigger ships, etc.
You can still play when your free trial runs out without paying, however your rank will be Midshipman (allowing you basic ship access only) until you resubscribe or use a coupon. If you do that, you get your old rank and prestige back again. All stats are saved as long as you log into the website at least every 6 months I think. Might be a year.

Do you offer a free-trial?
Yes, we offer a 14-day free trial to everyone who is interested in testing the game. You'll receive the coupon with your activation key after you successfully validated your email adress.
What do i get when i pay to play?
You will be able to gain rank calculated by all your stats. A demo account will only gain stats but won't advance in rank. As you advance in rank you will get acces to more and bigger ships. You will get acces to the green servers (FleetAdmiral, captain and most important the Metaverse)

Your email isn't validated, though I think we've covered that by now.
Plus, you have already received a free coupon for your Saver account (which is currently in newbie, in fact), so you're not eligible for another.
