Does the PC->PS4 Copy and Transfer expire after purchase?

I don't have a PS4 but plan to purchase one in the near future. If I purchase the PC->PS4 Copy and Transfer, will I be able to use that to copy my account whenever I get a PS4? I know we have 30 days to buy it but does this code/service expire after being purchased?

✭There won't be an expiration date on the code we sent out for the console transfer, so if you don't have your PS4 at launch, you'll still be able to use your purchased transfer later on, @Zyzzveli.5

BloodWolfe✭✭✭✭I would like to know this as well. I was considering grabbing the PS4 upgrade but do not own a PS4 yet and with vacation coming up in July and the cost of the flights, etc... I likely won't buy a PS4 until August or September. Am I still able to buy the PS4 upgrade and then transfer once I get a PS4 or do I lose out if it's not done by the launch date?
I will likely play primarily on my PC account as I love PC more but I have friends going to the PS4 version so instead of alts on the PC my main will be PC and I will play an alt on PS4 with some friends so it's not a big deal but when I saw this question asked it got me wondering the same thing.Edited by BloodWolfe on April 15, 2015 2:14PM0 -

✭The transfer will be done on a day determined by ZOS, your ownership of a PS4 isn't relevant to when that will be done, so if you only get one later then your characters will be there waiting; OTOH you obvipusly won't be able to play them until you get a PS4: they key thing is that ZOS initiate the transfer, not you.
Given the June release of the console version it would seem likely the 'cloning' will be done towards the end of May or early June, but that's entirely conjecture until ZOS come out with a definitive statement.Edited by fromtesonlineb16_ESO on April 15, 2015 2:46PM0 -
BloodWolfe✭✭✭✭That's what I was hoping and thinking but always nice to hear it from elsewhere as well. Thanks for the reply!0

Glierhuin✭✭✭But as I understood you need a Playstation Network account so you can link it to your ESO account before the copy is made. So you should have that set up in the next weeks to be able to link them and allI have approximate knowledge of many things.0 -
BloodWolfe✭✭✭✭Oh ya I've had a PSN account for a long time. Not sure about the OP but for me that isn't a problem I was just curious if I had to have a physical PS4 in time for it or not to take advantage of it. Didn't think so but you never know lol.0

everyer✭I've bought the console and I'm not sure if ZOS decide to start copy account, will there be an email to let us provide our PSN account?0

Actually you can buy games and submit digital download code on the web PS store before you get your PS4 and set the account as the default account on the machine.
