I did this online a few nights ago. Still no sign of my 10k signup points, nor my first $5 cert to use for this month. Recently I bought a game called Lost Judgment which came with a $10 reward, I had to contact support just to get that issued to me as well once many days had gone by and it was never rewarded as it should have been. I figured this membership would quickly pay for itself and it's the only gaming rewards around these days since GCU ended, but it's clear much of GameStop as a business is a mess right now. There was a game on sale that I wanted, and I figured I'd get these 10k points and $5 monthly reward right away and I'd buy the game. Now I'm willing to bet by the time they get my points straightened out, the sale price on the game will expire and I won't be able to get what I wanted.

As others have also mentioned, the $5 monthly rewards can't stack because they expire, and they also cannot be used to preorder something, they have to be used on something currently in stock. Which is a negative to me, easiest way to make sure the rewards don't get wasted in a month where I might not want anything is to just preorder something that I know I want in the future. I hear PSN cards don't come in anything less than $10, so if you're mainly a PlayStation gamer you can't just get your monthly $5 in PSN credit either unless you add cash to it.

Small print terms about the PowerUp Pro says you can request to cancel/refund your membership within 7 days. I may do that as I am disappointed already. (Oh, also the previous game I bought online had a release date of Friday Sep 24th and I received it Weds the 29th. For a business that caters to gamers, they should know it's not fun to be 5 days behind everyone else who starts playing a game on release day. The package didn't even start moving until Monday after release.)

So I'll be wasting my Monday morning getting on their live chat that is only available on weekdays to ask where all these rewards are. If that doesn't get sorted immediately, I'll be inquiring about the terms of refunding my membership, and if they mess around with that, I'll contact my credit card about the $15 charge I used to join. I recently got a PS5 and figured I'll be buying more physical games because of that and that this would be worth doing, but I'm already frustrated with GS service.

This is what I do every month.
It tends to not let me use the credit on nintendo e-cards most of the time, sometimes yes, but I do it in-store every month without issue applied to the $10 e-card.

You can ask for $5 digital Xbox card, they print you a code on receipt. Not sure about PS or Nintendo.
Did this for Nintendo the other night (the rep recommended it since I didn't what to get) though it caused an issue when the rep tried to redeem(I think GameStop system disables them early; it was on the night of September 30, the last day of the month to use coupon). Rep did his CS duty an override the then valid coupon. GameStop system must be f***** if they are putting their employees through that…

R u guys looking in the gamestop app for your rewards? I just signed up for the membership and I see them in my android app....
Did you sign up online or in a store ?

I bought a pro membership online yesterday and the 10k points showed up a few hours ago.

Today on a different account, I went to the store and upgraded. No points yet. I even called the GameStop phone number and the rep said my account shows up as inactive.

Wow. Can I use the ms gc to pay for Xbox Gamepass subscription?
You can but Gamepass can be had for under $50 per year using the $1 GPU trial and 3 years of Live Gold when they go on sale at the same time to upconvert to 3 years of GPU for free. so it's not a good idea to use it on GPU and it would better be used on buying games when they go on sale.

Isn't this the regular price? Is the sign up bonus the special?
Yes this is a regular price deal, not slick but a good value if you collect the $5 monthly credits. Buy a $10 PSN card monthly for $5.
