We've had some confusion lately as to what Season Passes are and how they function. As such, even if you feel you have a pretty good understanding of them, we are asking that you read this brief FAQ to make sure everyone is on the same page. Additional questions can be directed to treasurer@kanar.club.
Q: What ARE Season Passes?
A: Season Passes are a payment option that we offer members who would rather pay for an entire season upfront rather than making payments at each individual event. They are a good option if you plan to attend most of the year's events. Most of our Season Pass holders choose to pay for one year at a time, but options for three and five years are also available.
Q: How much are they?
A: Currently, a one-year pass is $180, a three-year pass is $510, and a five-year pass is $800.
Q: What do I get for buying a Season Pass?
A: A Pass covers all of your Event Fees for the entire season in which it is purchased. It provides you with a free ticket to Feast, and allows you to gain attendance XP for events which you are unable to attend.
Q: Can I use my free Feast ticket right away if I purchase a Season Pass in January?
A: The free ticket is for that season's feast - since Kanar's season begins in March, that season's Feast occurs during the next calendar year. So, if you purchase a 2020 Season Pass, you will receive a free ticket to the Feast that occurs at the beginning of 2021.
Q: If I pay Event Fees for every event of the season, does that count as purchasing a Season Pass?
A: NO. As of January 2020, event fees may NOT be retroactively applied to the purchase of a Season Pass. If you would like to purchase a Season Pass, it should be purchased prior to attending your first event of the year.
Q: I've bought a Season Pass. Is there anything else I need to do other than attend the event?
A: A Season Pass only covers your Event Fees for the year. You still need to pay for your Annual Membership Dues ($20), file an Annual Registration Form, sign in at the event, complete signouts, and so forth.
Q: Do I get the entire season's worth of XP upfront?
A: No. You receive XP as normal during the event's signout process.
Q: How do I get attendance XP if I'm not attending an event but have a Season Pass?
A: Fill out a signout form as normal, and make a note for CBM that you did not attend but are a Season Pass holder.
Q: How can I get volunteer/NPC XP if I'm a Season Pass holder not attending an event?
A: You can't. You can only get the base attendance XP. Attending events will always provide more opportunities to gain XP as quickly as possible.
