Club Nintendo account: Will I lose my gold status or my coins at year end?
Question Posted Thursday June 3 2010, 7:09 pm
At the end of the Club Nintendo year when they remove your elite status do they take away your coins or can you keep your coins to redeem them for prizes and it just won't count towards your elite status or what? Also lets say you get 300 coins and you get a gold elite status, if you redeem those coins will it remove your gold elite status?
You earn coins. If you earn enough coins in ONE "Nintendo year" which is from July 1 - June 30, then you will reach gold or platinum status.
If you earn enough or you don't, it doesn't matter come June 30th... because on that date the number of coins you earned is reset to zero so you can compete for gold and elite status again in the new year.
You do NOT lose any coins until they are two "Nintendo years" old... then they go away.
If you spend your coins, they still count towards your gold or elite status because those are based on how many coins you EARN... not how many you have piled up at the same time without spending them. Make sense?
