Now you can adopt pets for FREE just by playing in Webkinz World! Introducing Pet Medallions!
Pet Medallions!
What are Pet Medallions?
Pet Medallions are a new form of currency in Webkinz World. Each Medallion is pet-specific. When you collect enough of a particular Pet Medallion, you can trade them in to adopt that virtual pet – for FREE! There are also special ‘AnyPet’ Medallions, which act like a wild card and can be used toward any pet.
How do you get Pet Medallions?
You can earn Pet Medallions a couple of ways. Look for the red gift box icon in the Arcade to see which games offer Medallions and when you play one of those games, you have a chance of winning a prize which might be a Medallion! You can win up to 10 prizes per day in the Arcade. And you can earn one ‘AnyPet’ Medallion by trading 10 Pet Medallions of any one pet. Look for more ways to earn Pet Medallions in the future!

Where can you find your Pet Medallions?
Pet Medallions don’t appear in your Dock but it’s easy to see how many you’ve collected. Just open your ‘My Pets’ window and you’ll find a new tab called ‘Medallions’. Medallion pets appear here, along with a meter showing how many Medallions you have collected toward each pet, as well as the total number of Medallions required for each. You can click on each pet for information about its PSI and PSF.

How do you adopt a pet using Medallions?
When you’ve earned enough Medallions to adopt a pet, the meter beneath that pet will change to an ‘Adopt’ button. Just click the button and you will be taken to the Adoption Center and complete the adoption process as you would for any Webkinz pet.

Are Pets adopted using Medallions the same as regular Webkinz Pets?
Just like any Webkinz pet, a Medallion pet comes with its own Pet-Specific Item and Pet-Specific Food, and it behaves like any other pet in Webkinz World. It makes Pet Requests and has Happiness, Hunger, and Energy meters that need to be filled to help increase your Family Score. The only difference is that pets purchased using Medallions do not extend your Full Membership.

Which Pets can you adopt using Pet Medallions?
There are currently twelve pets which can be adopted using Pet Medallions, including two brand new pets that can only be adopted using Medallions! Each pet has a unique Medallion value – the rarer the pet, the more Medallions you’ll need. The pets are:
- American Golden
- Blossom Fish
- Calico Cat
- Cheeky Monkey
- Clydesdale
- Gargowl
- Signature English Spot Bunny
- Signature Normande Cow
- Stone Lion

We want to hear your feedback and comments to help us make collecting Pet Medallions an awesome experience for everyone! Let us know what you think!
This all could be fun. I am hoping that you plan on making the medallions easier to get in the future. No way will my little ones be able to earn them from games if they are random AND require a good score. So I am sure you wouldn’t be so excited about this if there wasn’t a better plan in place.
The pets are very cute, I am not a gamer, so it will take me forever, if at all. I have been wishing we got a small prize for getting a perfect score at school. It is hard to do. A medallion would be perfect, or a wish token. I have been saving for a wooden garden archway 150 but looks like it is going to take me 7 years. lol
It will take me a long time to get a pet just playing those games .. you have to be too long to get a medallion .. it’s difficult just with those games apart I do not have so much time to use my computer and I know it costs a lot .. I would like it is easier to get medals I just have one but it is only of those that are floating :(
OHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSH THIS IS SOOOOO COOOLLLL!!!!!!!! I AM SO EXCITED!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D (Who else is as exited as me?!)
(Okay, I’m wearing down… This is HARDDDDD.)
Apparently, this doesn’t work for mobile? It’s the only way I have time for games.
the amount of medallions needed for each pet is way too high. is it possible to lower it by half so it doesn’t take too long to earn them?
I agree
Agreed!!!!!!!
I agree! I think that’s kinda the point, though. At least we can still buy pets. I got one real cheap from the dollar store once.
I agree. Given how difficult it is to get a medallion, the numbers are way too high. It is the same with the new items in the wish factory. Impossible to meet goals will continue to discourage players and they will leave for other games.
wayyyyy tooooo high, sigh also i was hoping they would trade
YES! I CAN FINALLY GET SIGNATURES!! (Even know I have 3)
The diamond dragonfly is soooo cute!
I got a floating cheeky monkey medallion and won another from Crafty Canaries after I finished level 10. I won a Gargowl medallion from 25,000 points in the Dogbeard game. This is an exciting update, but it’s going to take a looooonnnngggg time to earn a pet – much like saving the 300 Wish Tokens needed for the Campkinz pool.
agreeded
So glad to hear your having luck getting the medallions. I’ve played Dogbeard 4 times with scores ranging from 25,000 to 36,000 and nothing, also scored over 37,000 in the new game gum drops, plus a few other games nothing. This is very disappointing. Haven’t even seen the floating medallion :( This was a cute idea, at this point I’m not sure how much effort I’m going to put in to it.
I know!!!! I can’t even beat any of those scores to get it ;(
Wow, that is great! I played 6 different games and won three boxes – two contained kinzcash and one a piece of furniture.
Are we limited to how many medallions/ prizes we can earn per day? And will there be a post of the potential prize pool for items to win?
The article says that you can win ten prizes per day.
