Feedback Friday: What items would you like to see added to the W Shop?
Welcome to Feedback Friday, where we ask a question and look to our wonderful Webkinz members for answers that we will use to make Webkinz World better. This is your chance to influence the way that Webkinz World evolves! Today in Webkinz World™ the MAZIN’ Mall was added to MAZIN’ Hamsters™. The MAZIN’ Mall is a great place to spend MAZIN’ Moolah, buy maze pieces, collect Hamster Theme Items, and more! With the addition of the MAZIN’ Mall and all the new MAZIN’ Hamsters items available there, we here at Webkinz Newz are wondering: is there anything missing from the W Shop? This week’s question is… What items would you like to see added to the W Shop? If there’s anything in the whole wide world that you would add to the W Shop, that is not there already, we’d like to hear about it! Give us some feedback by commenting now! AND don’t forget to tell us what you think about the all new MAZIN’ Mall! Click here to comment!

eStore Arrives In Webkinz World!
In an effort to make the eStore even easier to use, we have today launched a version of the eStore that can be used directly within Webkinz World! You can now use your eStore points to purchase eStore items and have them appear in your dock immediately. No codes needed! The Webkinz eStore is tied to our Ganz eStore, so you will see the same great sales and the same Deluxe Advantage benefits! eStore Points can be added by an adult directly to your Webkinz account using the “Add Points” feature, or they can be transferred from existing Ganz eStore accounts. Currently the Webkinz eStore only sells our line of amazing virtual items. Pets, Hamsters and Deluxe Membership will continue to be sold exclusively at the Ganz eStore.

It’s as easy as 1-2-3! 1) Go to ganzestore.com and click on the “Transfer Points” button 2) You will be asked for the User Name and Password of the Webkinz World Account you wish to send the eStore Points to, along with the amount you wish to send. Click “Send Points” 3) Confirm the request, and the selected amount of eStore Points will instantly be sent to the designated Webkinz World Account YAY! eStore Points have now been transferred to your Webkinz World account! *Currently Webkinz eStore only sells amazing Exclusive Online-only items. eStore Pets, Hamsters, Caring Valley, Figures, Charms and Deluxe Membership will continue to be sold exclusively at the Ganz eStore.
