    While the double credits help, my local Kingpin has removed the VIP pricing. Not too sure if it’s like this nationwide with Timezone and Kingpin.

    I also don’t know if I can see this as a deal going forward knowing we are paying the full price for each game now

  • Max999 on 21/08/2023 - 09:04

    This deal happens quite often this year, is their business doing ok?

    I hope they won’t go out of business with many of us have hundred dollars loaded?

      They have jacked up the price, so it's not really double value.

      • Max999 on 21/08/2023 - 09:26

        Fair enough. Not ideal but better than them going out of business with us fully loaded.

        Yes, by a significant amount! I put on about $50 and it barely lasted 30minutes with a couple of kids. They're all just ticket machines, not really "games".

        I maybe go there once a year with the family now… and that's only if we are walking passed it.

        Palace Arcade FTW.

      This deal is literally like crack for them, they get huge boosts in load ups every time they do it, why wouldn't they? You won't be able to tell the state of a business unless you visit every single day at multiple stores in various locations (to measure activity) AND have access to their balance sheets. Biggest issue is people will come to expect the discounts more often so rarely anyone will pay full price at load ups, diminishing the value of their credits. They could just inflate the games and tickets to prize ratio though to compensate but it's all a balancing game in the end lol

      TLDR: Business is likely to be doing fine, this is definitely not a fire sale liquidation event, or any indication of weakness at this point in time

      They're fine. There are new centres opening, being renovated, and games coming in all the time, and are backed by big money.

      To address the main point though people having more credit means nothing when the average person doesnt win many tickets from it.

      • Bargains4days on 21/08/2023 - 10:26

        It also seems that they have been jacking up the major prize’s ticket cost. The iPhone 14 Pro have doubled cost in tickets since the last prize page update.

    • jace88 on 21/08/2023 - 23:33

      Well we have all given hundreds of dollars in advance so I don’t think they mind too much.

      They literally got a round from VC to expand into Asia. Singapore just launched a massive timezone there.

      • jace88 on 23/08/2023 - 12:36

        They’ve had Timezone in Singapore for ages though. I remember using my old gold Powercard (the flashing swipe) in Jurong. And no the balance didn’t carry over.

    When loading up physically, do not forget the Free $10 Voucher by Playing Treasure Trek in-Store on the Timezone Fun App @ Timezone [Expires 3Sept so plenty of time after this deal goes live]

  • theoracle30 on 21/08/2023 - 12:45

    I've never used this before - are the double credits valid only on the day of the offer (have to use it same day), or can I recharge on Saturday and use the double credits at a later date?

    • Azro on 21/08/2023 - 12:59

      Use when you want. They do expire in 12 months if you don't use your card at least once, then it resets and 12 months start again.

    By the way, Costco is having the $50 gift card sold at $39.99.

    Also asking about the venue free game:

    The daily FREE games that come with Gold and Platinum status are applicable to the venue that you loaded up credit in. $1 per 92 days must be spent for the daily free Yellow card reader game to be credited to your Powercard.

    Does this means I can load up at Kingpin to play the spin then load up small amount at my local venue to set my free game venue back?

    Thanks

    • neonlight on 26/08/2023 - 09:21

      Been to Costco many times but don't see where to buy this you need to go to counter?

      • calinya on 26/08/2023 - 09:48

        It’s usually at the gift cards section. Collect the Timezone cardboard thing (like A4 size) and bring to the counter for them to scan. If you’re in Sydney (Casula Crossroads), it’s located next to the books section.

        • neonlight on 26/08/2023 - 09:51

          Thanks gift card cardboard it is.

          • calinya on 26/08/2023 - 10:57

            @neonlight: Haha, need to go the merchandise pick up to swap the cardboard for the actual gift card.

    • Sheng on 22/08/2023 - 18:09

    • calinya on 26/08/2023 - 09:50

      Use the $50 card and pay the $10 difference with cash/card/another gift card

      • vikramhkumar on 26/08/2023 - 11:47

        Thanks for your comment.
        Only Visa,Mastercard and Amex is available for payment and I am unable to find a way to use this giftcard to claim this double dollars offer..

    I never understood this kind of "deal".

    I remember back when I was 8-14 I found these gaming floors to be immensely interesting, and playing for tickets to get PRIZES "omg, 2 c00l M8!" 🤩 …

    But really… You are paying (sometimes a lot of) good money to play short games that reward you with tickets/points with which you buy cheap shit prizes… Right?

    Or have I misunderstood the concept? I am honestly interested to see what the reason is that TimeZone offers make it to the daily OzBargain email so often, when, in my uneducated opinion, it is ALL BUT a bargain, handing over money for nothing…

    I know that any experience-attraction could "technically" be classed the same, but in Disney World, Aquariums, theme parks or other pay-to-experience venues, the experience seems that much more substantial.

    TimeZone seems to me being not only expensive, but also just plain sad. Being inside a noisy venue playing expensive games, many of which could be enjoyed at home.

    Would anyone be able to explain the hype to me?

    • Gehirn on 22/08/2023 - 12:19

      A few points:

      1. If you are actually good at the games you can win amounts of tickets that exceed the value spent. The prizes are a lot more high end now, you can redeem a LG fridge if you so choose.

      2. A lot of the games that make up timezone now can not be enjoyed at home.

      3. Simply you have double the money you would have spent.

      It seems though really it's just not your thing.

        Hi Gehirn

        Thanks for taking the time to respond :)

        I think you're right, not my thing.

        I'm also principally against playing games for profit / anything that resembles gambling so (1) takes TimeZone to "pokies" level in my mind.

        2) is a valid point. But I'm one of the people that don't even have time to use my Xbox properly. So my mind asks the question "why should I spend money playing different types of games when I don't even have time to play at home?".

        3) I see would make sense for an OzBargainer to which TimeZone is a thing.

        Each to their own - Good thing we're not all the same. It would be so boring if it was so, hey?

        Thanks, I can now put the matter to rest 😊

    • Be careful on 22/08/2023 - 22:40

      Playing them at home requires an Xbox, games, electricity etc. not free

    • King Steuart on 26/08/2023 - 09:16

      Once you're old enough to stop enjoying timezone, you're old enough to stop enjoying timezone. Relax bro, it's for kids and ddr nerds

      Timezone is really just for kids. I take my kids every so often as reward and have a blast with them. No consoles at home, or else they ask for it everyday lol

  • Gomo on 26/08/2023 - 01:52

    Neat reminder!

    Just loaded up the $100 for the bonus $100 🙌

  • Subere on 26/08/2023 - 09:17

    Have they updated their app. Log in screen is different and now I'm stuck on a screen that is "verifying your identity" after I entered a one off code. Not sure why it didn't ask for my password.
    One way for me to use up the credit I currently have and not load up ever again.
