Changes to Webkinz Newz

You may have noticed some changes in Webkinz Newz recently. These changes have been part of our effort to streamline all of our services, such as moving Webkinz World and Webkinz Newz to the Cloud. Steps like these prevent outages and improve performance, ensuring that the sites stay up no matter what. We are currently working towards bringing GanzWorld back to its roots, focusing on Webkinz Newz, Events and Contests.

 

One of the recent changes was the removal of the GanzWorld Arcade, a secondary Flash-based game site that generated GanzWorld Reward Moneyz. Most of these games were third-party with no support, and our efforts must be focused on preparing Webkinz World for the future.

 

We will soon be retiring GanzWorld Rewards, as well. When the exact date is known, we will make a follow-up announcement. We recommend spending your Moneyz at this time.

 

We thank you for your patience during this process.

    Just 1 LAST QUESTION . WHEN this is all finished will I be ablle to play with my FireFox and log on (AND) will I be able to log in to play with Chrome ? OR will I only be able to use 1 server to do this. You see information for us will make it MORE EASY less hard on you as well . Use of only 1 server is a DIFFERENT GAME for some of us with more accounts . THANK YOU PLEASE ANSWER ?!

    THIS IS VERY AWFUL….I HAVE BEEN SAVING AND COLLECTING GANZWORLD REWARDS MONEYZ FOREVER AND I LOVE SEEING WHAT NEW THINGS YOU ADD TO THE REWARDZ….I SURE HOPE YOU RECONSIDER THIS PLEASE.

    Is it likely that you will add more prizes to GanzWorld Rewards before it closes down? It would be good to have more options for spending the Moneyz.

  9. Jessmine2 says:

    Sorry to see the GanzWorld Rewards go, but glad you are looking to the future. Don’t guess you would consider adding back some (or all) of the old prizes from the past so we could have a lot of choices to spend our Moneyz on?
