Club Penguin Is Raising Their Membership Prices

Posted by Trainman1405 on July 4, 2011 under Other Stuff

There has been some rumors going around that Club Penguin is raising their membership prices. This is true. It’s not just one month membership that is getting a price lift. So is six months and twelve months. The current cards with the prices that have always been ($5.95, etc) are being phased out. Once they’re gone, they’re gone and being findd with the more expensive cards. In fact, here is one of the new membership cards. It shows the one month membership priced at $7.95. (Thanks for the picture, Yellowjojo!)

To confirm these prices, Coolmario88 emailed Club Penguin. Here is their reply, although you may have trouble reading it:

In the email Club Penguin said the prices are indeed being raised to fund the game. While children and parents may not like the price increase, Club Penguin has a lot to offer. When Club Penguin first launched in 2005 they didn’t have a whole lot in the game, yet membership was $5.95. Since then they’ve added a lot, which made Club Penguin think it’s best as they raise it. More features = the more it will cost. With the extra money they can do more.

    There’s a problem here. I would pay 6 dollars for the old Club Penguin, but not for the new one. The price increase makes no sense and CP will lose fans, customers and popularity.

    I understand the price raise. More stuff for only members means that they’d be losing money if they kept the prices low. But if they kept the prices low, more people would buy memberships..

    Ohh so THATS why i was confused at my birthday party when one of my friends bought me a $7.95 membership, and another friend, who probably bought the gift before the price raises, got me a $5.95 one!
