    Habbo is also more established and can afford to lower it to 20.
    ClubTropica however is just starting out and needs to make money before they can start sacrficing money for profits

    Hmmm true. But i would make it low, for one month, then increase it. That way if people realise they lkike it loads they will be forced to buy more!

    That plan could also backfire. If you start out low and then people use it for awhile and see that the price is increasing, they could be outraged and decide not to buy it. On the other hand if you start out higher and have a good amount of people buying it, as soon as you lower it the people who previously had it will continue to buy it as well as others, habbo for example

    It could back fire - but so could having it high.

    But here's the thing. Let's say their first month they have it at 30 and it flops terribly. They see that people aren't buying it for this price so they always have the option to lower it. When they start low they can't just keep going lower or lower otherwise it'd be pointless.

    What you don't realise is that they're not keeping the price high for the membership on purpose, they don't need to keep it high actually. Once they find different ways of revenue like Habbo have with sponsorship over movies, they can lower alot. You don't even need a big profit, you can start low with cheap prices which creates a good revenue in the long haul, in exchange for virtual furniture/membership, then work your way up?

    Exactly, they can't start low and raise it because it would be unfair to people that pay afterwards, you always start high and then lower the price, the PS3 wasn't released at £100 then slowly increased they put a price and lower it depending on how many people buy it

    I am all for clubtropica but it is silly money.

    CT isn't aimed at 11-19 year olds like Habbo, its really aimed at adults.

    So don't complain.
