Lush Coins

My post 8th August does say coins are no longer given when members purchase a subscription. The figure you see on the upgrades, for example 1875 for platinum, is the number of coins you need to purchase that subscription.

The screenshot you posted was Jen's post on 26 Jan 2023.

New members signing up will receive coins as part of their membership fee, and existing users can buy coins to distribute if they want to.

For every paid subscription, there was a certain amount of bonus coins. Example: 20 bonus coins for 1 month Gold or 100 bonus coins for lifetime Platinum.

Subsequently, on 8 Aug 2025, simplyjohn posted an update (page 7) in this thread:

"Coins are no longer given with a subscription purchase."

As an option, in the Upgrade page, instead of paying using your card/PayPal, you can use your account available Lush coins to buy a subscription. Make sure you have enough coins in your account to meet the minimum required cost in coins. Otherwise, you can purchase coins in addition to any existing coins you have in your account, if any, to fulfill the difference of the total coins needed.

Example: 937 coins for 1 year Gold or 1875 coins for a lifetime Platinum subscription purchase.

Note: The 937 or 1875 coins are not included as bonus coins in the subscription purchase package but the equivalent purchasing amount in coins required from you to make the specific subscription purchase.

📌 Thus, as of the Aug 8 posting by simplyyjohn, Bonus Coins are no longer included in the upgrade subscription purchase packages.

Account available coins are still valid to tip authors, purchase, or gift a subscription. You may buy additional coins from rhe different amount offerings.

How many coins does it take to upgrade a membership?

How many coins does it take to upgrade a membership?

Platinum has been 1875 every time I upgraded someone. Same as paying cash.

The coins have a cash value $0.10 US each minus a 20% service charge

Silver and gold memberships are exchanged at the cash price plus 20% conversion fee, same as if you cashed the coin out

Around a month from now, lush general has a Black Friday sale for $99. The coin rate would be about 1200 for that sale.

I’m trying to withdraw my coin for the first time. Is there a moderator I can talk to on this

Coins are not available to exchange/withdraw until the tips are 14 days old. That is why your withdrawals are pending.,
