The KinzPost Office has long been a fun and important part of Webkinz World, and now we’re introducing some updates to make it even better!
You can now access the KinzPost from anywhere, without leaving your current location. Just select the KinzPost Office from your Things to Do menu and (just like the WShop) it will appear as a window on top of your current screen.
You can also open the KinzPost Office by using the updated button at the top right of your screen in your pet’s home.
We’ve also combined all of the different KinzPost elements into a single screen. Now your inbox, sending a note, gift, or postcard is just a single tab click away.
The best thing about the new KinzPost Office is that sending notes and gifts are completely FREE! You no longer have to pay any KinzCash when sending notes and gifts to a friend. While sending a note is available to everyone, you will still need at least a Full Membership (by adopting a pet) in order to send a gift. Deluxe Members will also have access to sending postcards, with new scene and stamp options coming soon!
What we have made available to everyone, is the ability to save a copy of any piece of KinzPost mail directly to your photo gallery. Click on the Save button, and just like your pet’s room, you’ll be able to keep a copy on your computer wherever you like.
To help players figure out which items can be sent through KinzPost, you’ll now only see the sendable items appear in an active state while your KinzPost Office window is open. Items that cannot be sent will appear in an inactive (or semi-transparent) state while the KinzPost Office window is open.
Sending notes and mail is easier than ever! There’s no more need to switch between screens for each step. You can choose all of your options from one single screen.
The new and improved KinzPost will also be coming very soon to the Webkinz mobile app, after our next app update! Soon you’ll be able to send and receive all of your Webkinz KinzPost mail while on the go!
We hope you have a marvelous time with your mail in Webkinz World!
What do YOU think of the NEW KinzPost Office? Let us know in the comments below!
I saw on facebook that many bugs would be fixed on Nov. 23rd. Will this include those accounts that now can’t use KP at ALL now? 2 of my three accounts can’t send or receive mail and eventually I get logged out after accessing mail. I would be nice to have some acknowledgement that this will be fixed. (I have under 30 friends on these accounts)
Thank you so much for the new stationery and stickers. I really love them! When you get a chance maybe you could update some of the insert comments. There are several I never ever use and I think we could use something like–a) Sorry I could not make your party, maybe another time. b) Thanks for the invite, I had so much fun. Let’s do it again sometime. c) Thanks for having me over, you made my day. Just a few ideas.
Those are good ideas. I was also happy about the new stationary and stickers!
When you add a new feature, do the players a favor and test it first! I borrowed an item from a friend, a really nice item, and now cannot send it back to them. That person is going to hate me now! And I am upset because I cannot return it by Post and will have to find them in the trading room! Help!
I agree it would be nice to have a “Sorry I missed your party” response–Especially since I have gotten six party invitations today alone and there seems to be no way to accept. I get that famous “We are unable to connect to WW. You will now be logged out” response. Friends will think we are just ignoring them !!!!!!!!
I like where you’re going with this BUT it is very difficult to find a friends username in the list because IT”S NOT IN ALPHABETIC ORDER. Help!!!
my post office is not working correctly. what do i do?
I had a hard time scrolling until I realized that you had to use the little box to the right to scroll evenly. Could you please color the scroll box a different color than the scroll bar. I love everything about it now except not having alphabetical order for my friends list. I would like to be able to send more then 3 items. I know why you do it that way, but couldn’t it be at least four instead?? Some of the clothing items come in 4 pieces and I like to send them all together so I don’t forget that I need to send one item the next day. Could we send more items if it is through one e-mail??? Like I have multiple accounts, all on the same e-mail.
I agree with George1967. It would really be nice to have the friends list in alphabetical order, showing when that friend was last active. I too am a long time member and I have several hundred names on my list and friend requests still coming in! I would like to delete some inactive members to pair down my list so that when I want to ask friends to send things like when building items like the Haunted house, I don’t waste my time sending out requests to friends who are no longer active. As well, I still cannot bring up my friends lists on my accounts to send parcels to!
Instead of improving my Kinzpost experience, the new system has eliminated it altogether. I am now dumped out of the site when I try to do anything in Kinzpost. And just in time for the Holidays! Why was this considered necessary?
I’m having the same problem on my primary account because of the number of inactive friends, but not on my secondary accounts with more manageable lists. Thus, I can’t even reconcile the apple seed issue (though these were mailed from my other accounts so should be plantable). Since I don’t want to be arbitrarily and accidentally deleting active friends, many of us will be left without the ability to send mail until this accessibility issue is resolved. Hopefully as soon as possible, since the holiday theme is coming soon and my main account is my only deluxe one. Won’t be able to send deluxe items to my non-deluxe friends once this new theme or any new clothing line appears. Hopefully Ganz will have this addressed during the next update!
Fingers are crossed.
I wish you would add a message that says “Sorry I missed your party,” I feel so bad when I open my mail too late to attend and would like to let them know!
Me too!
Love this idea!!! It does feel rude not send a polite decline.
That’s a great idea, beerfeet!
