VIP

This article talks about VIP Membership on MovieStarPlanet and MovieStarPlanet 2. For the BSP version, click here.

The VIP Logo, the badge will be shown on items which requires VIP of any type.

VIP is a premium membership on all MovieStarPlanet games. Players are not required to have VIP; however, there are many benefits that come with a subscription such as access to a few more features, special privileges, and access to all VIP items. Additionally, starcoins, diamonds, and sometimes exclusive items come with the purchase of VIP.
There are four different tiers of VIP, but only two are still obtainable.

On October 27th, 2022, the new subscription-based VIP, that was released on both MSP 2 and BSP, was tested on the Ireland server and the day after, was released on all of the servers. However, at the start of 2023, VIP was changed back to being a one-time payment. This also added back 1 week VIP.

Obtaining VIP[]

The player can obtain VIP status via direct purchase, reception of a VIP ticket from a VIP user, redemption of a VIP gift certificate, or placement in a weekly competition or other competitions hosted by MSP.

Direct Purchase (Available on all games)[]

A direct purchase is made within the player's account and is delivered a few moments after purchase.
Direct purchases can be made with a variety of debit/credit cards, PayPal, and Paysafecards. It is also possible to make a direct purchase with an iTunes or Google Play account or gift card if the player uses the MSP apps when making the purchase.

Gift Certificates (Semi-Exclusive)[]

A gift certificate can be purchased off the MovieStarPlanet homepage to be given to a player at a later date. Once purchased, a player must be given the redemption code and use it on their account to gain VIP status. Gift certificates are only purchasable on MSP but can be redeemed on MSP 2.
Gift certificate purchases can only be made with debit or credit cards. Additionally, it is only possible to purchase the top tier of VIP (Star VIP). If a player is already the top tier of VIP and still redeems a gift certificate, it will be added to the current VIP status.

After 27th October 2022, one-year memberships are the only type that are available to buy as gifts.

Competitions (Exclusive to MSP)[]

The player can obtain 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, or 14 days of regular VIP free of charge by winning a weekly competition. The amount they receive depends on what category they won and what place they got.
In addition to weekly competitions, MSP staff may occasionally host a competition where players can win various lengths and tiers of VIP.

VIP Ticket (Exclusive to MSP)[]

If a user purchases a year of Star VIP or the diamond pack, they receive a VIP ticket. This ticket can be gifted to another player to give them a free one week VIP membership. VIP tickets only exist on MSP and cannot be redeemed on MSP 2 or BSP.

Tiers of VIP[]

Prior to October 2022, there were three tiers of VIP: regular VIP, Elite VIP, and Star VIP. Another tier between the regular and Elite tiers, Super VIP, was discontinued in 2014.
Elite VIP was added to the game in October 2013 as an upgrade from the original VIP. In November 2014, Star VIP (an upgrade from Elite VIP) was introduced.

Each tier shares the basic benefits of VIP, but the better the tier, the better certain benefits are. Additionally, the tier purchased determines whether or not the player will get the exclusive items and how many diamonds and StarCoins the player will receive.

On October 11th, 2022, regular and Elite VIP memberships were discontinued on both BlockStarPlanet and MovieStarPlanet 2. On October 27th, 2022, MSP discontinued them on MovieStarPlanet as well; however, Regular VIP can still be obtained through VIP tickets and competitions.

+Color and/or icon is determined by the type of VIP they have.

Exclusive Items[]

Exclusive items are sets of items that sometimes come with the purchase of top-up packs and VIP. They have been a part of VIP packages since late November 2011. Whether the player receives the items with their purchase of VIP or a top-up and how many items the player receives is determined by which tier and/or package they choose, as well as the number of items in the particular set.

Each month, a new set of exclusive items is released that includes one accessory (which is normally gender neutral) or shoes, one pair of eyes (usually during holidays, such as Christmas), one hairstyle, one top (for males) or dress (for females), and a pet of some kind.
A year subscription (or diamond top-up pack) will come with all the items. A running collection of every exclusive set can be found here.

Notes[]

The number of diamonds a player has will not change after the player's VIP has ended. The player can continue to use them as they previously did.

Trivia[]

The number of starcoins and diamonds a player receives with VIP and the prices of VIP have changed frequently over time.
VIP usernames in chatrooms were previously colored red instead of gold.
If a user's VIP expires while they are in the "VIP Club" chatroom or "Club VIP" area, they will remain in there as non-VIP.
If a user purchases too many items in a week on the app, they will have a spending limit and will be unable to purchase anything until the next week.
There is actually a fifth VIP type, listed in the game's files as "Hidden VIP". The VIP badge is identical to regular VIP but has the non-VIP header color on profiles.
Prior to October 2022, a user had to be VIP to buy a top-up pack.
