Reading Time: 2 minutesGetting your hands on the latest and greatest in gaming gear is harder than ever. With things like PS5s selling as fast as they can stock them and Pokémon cards getting whisked off virtual shelves, knowing where to buy and when is critical.
Enter Power Up Rewards, GameStop’s membership program, which offers early access to consoles, trading cards, graphics cards, and more. This is just one perk of being a member, and you can sign up between April 14 and 20 to enjoy 33% off a year of membership. Not only that, but new members score an immediate 10,000 points, plus a monthly $5 coupon and a one year Game Informer subscription.
The PowerUp Rewards Pro membership normally costs $14.99 a year, but springtime savings mean you can snag it for $5 off. Even if you’re only using it to nab a PS5 at retail pricing, that’s pretty darn worth the cost. Trust me.
PowerUp Rewards Pro Membership

PowerUp Rewards Pro members reap five primary benefits from that $14.99 a year (minus 5 bucks during the promo). Those gamer buffs are the following:
- 2% Back in Points – Upon signing up, members start collecting points on purchases. Pro members get 20 points on every dollar spent, which is double what non-Pro members receive.
- 10,000 Points – Enjoy a big initial influx of those points to grease the wheels. The 10,000 points you receive equals $10 to spend with GameStop.
- $5 Monthly Reward – Every month ($60 for the year), Pro members get a free 5 bucks to spend with GameStop via a coupon that lands in your account the first week of the month.
- Early Access – Hot drops for hard-to-get consoles, graphics cards, and more are included in GameStop’s exclusive early access for Pro members.
- Game Informer Subscription – If you’re a glutton for gaming news like me (digital or print), being subbed to Game Informer is a must. Read exclusives on upcoming games, developer interviews, reviews, and more.
If you already plan on spending $14.99 at GameStop one way or another in the upcoming year, getting the 10,000 points pays for most of it, and then the $5 monthly reward pays for the rest.
Since the membership is 33% off right now, that means you don’t even need to wait for the monthly rewards to kick in to get your money’s worth. Game on!
