SmartyCard Sets New Price Points

SmartyCard is adding subscription-based rates to its pricing options, the company said today. The idea behind the move is to help parents take the guess work out of topping off a child's SmartyCard account (and for parents who might forget to fund a child's account). SmartyCard responded to its summertime surveys and has made a basic subscription available at $6.95 per month for 5,000 points. A three-month subscription plan provides 5,000 points per month and the six-month subscription plan provides 6,000 points per month. Virtual worlds that use SmartyCard include Zwinky Cuties, Bella Sara, Club Penguin, and Stardoll.
