I noticed that today too. Well I mean I was checking my bonus points and there was no convert button or anything.


I see. So this is it. It lies here within this palm. The heart.

Same here, also in my case it says

Minimum convertible amount: 9999999

That may be the problem, not allowed to convert because the points required is astronomically high. Needs to be set to something like 100 points minimum to convert or at least not too high, maybe 1000 minimum.

Well, the thing is even when it was working perfectly fine, the minimum amount on the page was set to 9999999, it actually has been for quite some time. But in all honesty, the minimum amount should be set to 1. 1 Point in the bonus points for CH is equivalent to $1 spent in the store, unless they have a "bonus" bonus point sale, which is often on expensive spells. Getting 100 points is a chore for some people, let alone 1000.

I noticed this a while back. I just thought I wasn't allowed to use bonus points anymore because I got too good at using them, lol.

Tbh Noc , its the same for me. With the extra bonus point event ... i think to many people took advantage of it . When you bought a Master Service Pirate energy you got 500 points for a 3.5$ listing , at the 0.01 currency u got 1.5$ profit. I only did this once and even that is a little bit naughty ^^

I did ask HD some time ago, their reply is:
No, we do different promotions each year and since we are gifting points, we are not having the conversion. :)
Although if you have 5,000 point, there are two new redemption bonus listings for that.

So basically everyone, the gift certificate option is no longer available. They should remove the text that says otherwise. 1hd

Well, that's disappointing about the bonus points. I was kind of waiting for the once-a-year 5x bonus points day. But it kinda goes with the flow. There's no discount on OOAKs, no matter your level. And I have all the regular bindings. And Gift Certificates have been gone for awhile. *sigh*

I have good relationships here, though. It's not just about the money.

Actually, the conversion button was removed because we had a weekend when we were giving away tens of thousands of bonus points for free with various purchases in categories. I believe it was either in July or August. So some people amassed over 100,000 points in a day since some products and categories were worth 10,000 points each. The point being they can be used to buy greater-priced products & services as the BPR category grows and as we release promotions for those points in various categories.

We will be having various promotions regarding difference categories for this. So nothing has been lost as GCs can only be spent in the store so you will be able to still buy items in the shop.
