Rewards FAQs

What is Timezone Rewards?

Get rewarded for playing? Yes! Timezone Rewards is a membership program that gives you exclusive benefits for playing at all Timezone venues within Australia. Benefits vary according to membership tiers and range from bonus game credits, discount gameplay, exclusive benefits and so much more.

How does Timezone Rewards work?

You can join Timezone Rewards by registering your Timezone Powercard online via the member portal. There are four membership tiers:

 

Welcome: A warm Welcome to Fun! Purchase a Welcome card in any of our venues by loading a minimum of $1. Register your card and you will be enrolled into the Welcome Tier.

Blue Elite: Be part of an Elite force. Reaching 50 Reward Points will upgrade you to the Blue Elite Tier.
 
Gold: Go for Gold! Reaching 250 Reward Points will upgrade you to the Gold Tier.

Platinum: Truly a class of its own. Reaching 1,000 Reward Points will upgrade you to the ultra-exclusive Platinum Tier.

 

Please refer to the Rewards page for more information on rewards and benefits offered at different tiers. 1 Reward Point equals $1.

What are Reward Points?

Reward Points are based on the net total load accumulated on a Powercard. We call these Reward Points. Your total Reward Points excludes bonus game credit earned from offers and promotions. One (1) Reward Point = One Dollar ($1)

 

Example: A load of $50 on a double-dollar offer shows a balance of $100 worth of game credits. The net load credited towards Timezone Rewards is $50.

How do I check my Reward Points?

Please create an account online via the member portal or download the Timezone Fun App, add your Powercard to your account and you'll be able to see your total Reward Points on your Powercards. Alternatively, visit your local venue

Why should I register my Timezone card?

How do I know when I am eligible to be upgraded to the next membership tier?

You can check your current status level in your online member portal account or via the Timezone Fun App. Upon reaching the required Reward Points for a tier, our team in a venue will be able to upgrade your Powercard. Please visit your local venue to upgrade.

Social FAQs

Why are some promotions only available at certain venues?

Due to different offerings available at certain locations, not all promotions can be run at all venues.

What are bonus dollars?

Bonus dollars are an additional balance added to your card when you load up in venue or when you purchase a promotional product in store. This is additional credit awarded to you that can be used to play games in store.

How do I receive my Powertickets?

All points or Powertickets as we refer to them are electronically transferred onto your Powercard when you finish playing a game with a red coloured swiper. We no longer accepts paper tickets. Some sites may use paper tickets in some machines. Those sites will have a Fun Chomper ticket redeeming station, which will convert your physical tickets into Powertickets and load them onto your card.

How do I redeem my Powertickets for a prize?

Simply take your Powercard to the front counter and the customer service assistant will advise you of the amount of tickets you have available. You can then choose prizes from the redemption counter up to the value of the tickets you have available. If you do not wish to spend your Powertickets at that time they will remain on the card and any more power tickets won will accumulate. Powertickets have a 12 month expiry from last use.

Can I purchase a prize using cash from the redemption counter?

Prizes from the redemption counter cannot be purchased for cash. They are only redeemable for Powertickets.

What are your opening hours?

Opening hours vary between locations, please check the Locations page for opening hours. Our venues are open every public holiday except Christmas day.

Do you provide food for birthday parties and other functions?

There are select venues that have a cafe on-site and can provide food for parties. Some venues also have deals with local food providers for parties and functions. Please contact your local Timezone venue for more information.

Can Timezone organise party invitations?

Do we need to arrive earlier than our booking time?

We request that you and your guests arrive 15 minutes prior to your party start time. This will ensure that your party experience begins on time and that none of your guests miss out on any of the fun! All parties at Timezone commence on the hour.

Do we need to stay with the party?

We ask that you organise a parent or carer to be available for the duration of your party as a touch point for our hosts – this could be you, your partner, a family member, or friend (anyone attending the party to help supervise the kids).

What do you mean by carer?

A carer is a parent, guardian or adult responsible for supervising the party children and a touch point for Timezone. We recommend that carers are present for the duration of your party. Carers are there to ensure the kids are all in attendance during each activity, escort the kids to the bathroom and ensure they are behaving appropriately in the venue. If there is a problem the Party Host will inform the carers, so it is necessary to remain in the venue to be able to supervise the party.

Depending on the party package you have chosen, Timezone parties are approximately 2.5 hours from start to finish.

Does the birthday booking need to be confirmed?
