What is K-Ching?
K-Ching is K-Zone’s virtual equivalent of money, earned through a number of ways as outlined below. You can see how much K-Ching you’ve saved in your account by looking to the top right-hand corner of the screen. To spend your K-Ching, head to the Mega Store or Mon-Store by clicking on the Mega Store icon or The Zone icon.
Once you click into a store, you can browse the sale items or select an item to learn more about. The selection in each store is constantly changing, so keep checking back for the latest and greatest goodies! Once you buy an item, it will appear in your avatar’s inventory chest, located inside your
HQ.
So how do I earn K-Ching?
You can earn K-Ching as a member of www.kzone.com.au. Once a member, you can earn K-Ching by submitting High Scores from games in The Zone. Extra K-Ching can be earned by submitting a High Score from games in the Zone (limit of one per day). You can also earn K-Ching by reading larticles, completing quizzes and by watching videos. From time to time, you’ll notice K-Zone’s ‘Random Code Generator’ pop up on your screen, awarding you free K-Ching! Codes are also hidden throughout each monthly issue of K-Zone Magazine, sold in Australia and New Zealand only, that you can decode using the
K-Zone Alphabet Decoder. Once you’ve decoded each hidden codeword, you can enter the word here to earn bonus K-Ching. Occasionally, the K-Zone Crew will hide codes throughout the website, so you can earn more points by finding and decoding extra words.
What can I buy with my K-Ching?
You can spend K-Ching on stacks of wicked virtual items from our
Mega Store and
Mon-Store. Virtual items include furniture for you to deck out your online HQ, plus clothes and items for you to customise your very own Avatar. You can also buy real-life rewards known as
‘Live Loot’, ‘including CDs, videogames, DVDs, books, toys and much more!
How do I Level-Up?
Why would I do this? Benefits of levelling up?
The easiest way to Level-Up is by playing games in
The Zone. You can also Level-Up by reading articles, completing quizzes and by watching videos online.
You can see how far you’re away from the next level by looking at the Progress Bar in your HQ, when clicking the + icon.
Importantly, you can only earn a set number of points per day – this helps in keeping the whole game fair.
The benefit of levelling up is that you can purchase more products in the Mega Store and Mon-Store to deck out your HQ.
How do I customise my Online HQ?
You can customise your online HQ with items purchased from the Mega Store and Mon-Store. When you’re in your HQ, you’ll notice a (+) and a (–) button. Click on the (+) button to browse through your inventory, and then click on an item to place it in your HQ. Move the item with your mouse, and click on the area where you’d like it to be placed. You can remove an item by clicking on the (–) button, and then clicking on the item in your HQ that you would like to remove. The clicked item will then return to your inventory for later use.
What is ‘Live Loot’ and how do I score it?
‘Live Loot’ items are K-Zone’s real rewards for members. ‘Live Loot’ can include toys, CDs, DVDs, books and games. You can purchase ‘Live Loot’ items with your saved K-Ching, and it will then be sent to your home within six to eight weeks!
Importantly, you can only purchase one ‘Live Loot’ item each month, so choose carefully!
