We are very pleased to announce that the WShop has gotten a makeover! It’s now easier than ever to find what you need!
All the main categories are listed along the left side of the WShop (New Items, Food, Furniture, etc…). Some of these categories have subsections that are listed along the top of the shop. Subsections mean that you can find what you are looking for faster. For example, in the old WShop there was only one main category for “Fun Stuff”. In the NEW WShop “Fun Stuff” is divided into multiple subsections like “Games”, “Books”, “Toys” and “Seeds”:
We have also made buying items easier! Before we were using a “check out” system and you had to add items to your “cart” before you bought them. Now, all you need to do is click the BUY button and your item will magically jump into your Dock:
Did you notice that you can also buy items with eStore Points in the new WShop? These are some of our coolest items available and to celebrate, we are giving EVERYONE 2000 FREE eStore points! The amount of eStore points you have is displayed above your pet’s portrait (next to your KinzCash). Want some more? Click on the green “+” sign to add more points to your account:
Remember, you must login to your Webkinz World account BEFORE April 1st to get your points.

The w shop wont let me in
I was excited before, But I don’t like how the E-store items are mixed in with the W-shop items! It makes things harder to find, not easier! :( But I’ll admit, I do like the Sub sections. Maybe it’ll just take some getting used to.
Oh yeah! And the “Cool clothing” Is just e-store clothing! :(
:idea: all clothes in the w shop and all codes and leave the curio shop alone :idea: plz ganz plllz and also let the others get fixed
i dont like it AT ALL please bring back the old one GANZ
I kind of like it like that I’ll tell my friend to check it out since she doesn’t have a wkn account.
I would like to see the sale section returned. I had a hard time finding the item that was on sale today and before those sale items usually remained a few days. I love a bargain and now it’s too hard to find them.
I think that you should separate the W-Shop items and the E-Store items. Also, the new W-Shop is very slow. I do like of how you can sell back more items at one time.
Mine won’t load idk why this is but its bugging me ALOT i havnt got a chance to buy anything today :( HELP?
I’m sorry to say, but I find it highly confusing, and I don’t like the idea of having the e-store stuff in there at all. The drag feature (instead of having a cart) makes it too easy to accidentally buy things and very confusing to use coupons. Clearly this is a way to encourage people to buy points and I won’t be doing that. I was gone from Webkinz for a long time because of all the “deluxe only” pushes, this has really taken it to a new level.
I definitely agree with the drag feature. At first I thought it seemed good, but it is almost too easy to buy items. Maybe a ‘click to really buy’ button would be helpful.
:idea:
I’m finally able to get in. I don’t like the new store much. Yes, it looks nicer, but it’s way slower to load and I can’t find stuff (like the Outdoor section) as easily as I could before. I do like how sections are broken down into sub-sections and are alphabetized, but items need to be separated based on the currency they require, sections need to be easier to find, and it needs to be faster loading!
