New Account Quick KinzCash Guide

This guide is specifically for players seeking to earn as much KinzCash as possible on a new account. It is best to review this guide before creating a new account as the pet selection, Welcome Room actions, and My House theme choices dictate the potential KinzCash earnings.

Upon initiating a new account creation by clicking on the "I'm New" button on the Webkinz homepage, players are shown a selection of free pets to adopt. Players may choose one of the eight pets shown in the table below. The names of the pets, along with their Pet Specific Item (PSI), are also shown. Additionally, the W-Shop sell value of the pet's PSI is listed. The pet with the most valuable PSI is the Big Top Elephant; the Three Ring Swing sells for 673 KinzCash. The following analysis assumes the player chooses the most valuable option in each step.

Pet	Pet Specific Item (PSI)	PSI Sell Value
Afghan Hound	Stylish Salon Seating	488 KC
Big Top Elephant	Three Ring Swing	673 KC
Floppy Eared Bunny	Carrot Car	625 KC
Himalayan	Yeti Mountain Window	500 KC
Ice Fawn	Musical Ice Box	390 KC
Penguin	Icy Fishing Hole Fridge	500 KC
Sun Fox	Solar Speedster	650 KC
Wolf	Red-Hooded Riding Car	500 KC

After proceeding with further account creation steps, the player will be brought into the Welcome Room. After Ms. Birdy's introduction, the player will be prompted pet onto an open chair within the room, then to feed a piece of food to the pet. The apple is the least valuable item and the player should choose this item to feed the pet. The remaining food items will be sold to the W-Shop for 12 KinzCash once the function becomes available.

Food	Sell Value
Apple	2 KC [consumed]
Cookies	4 KC
Pizza	5 KC
Strawberries	3 KC
Total	12 KC

The player will then be prompted to open the Things To Do Menu, then select My House, where they will be presented with three preset room designs. The Kid's Room contains items with the highest W-Shop sell value, for a total of 3,346 KinzCash. The room with the most valuable items should be selected.

Room Theme	Sell Value
Kid's Room	3,346 KC
Pirate's Room	2,329 KC
Princess Room	2,286 KC

After selecting the preset room, the player will be awarded with 3,000 KinzCash.

Once the room has loaded, the player will be prompted to dress the pet in any clothing. If the player has chosen the Kid's Room, they will already have the Ball Cap, Red Bow, and Red Shirt in the dock. Simply place a hat onto the pet's avatar. Upon completing this task, the player will be awarded the pet's Adoption Gift Box.

The clothing may then be removed from the pet. All of the clothing in the dock may be sold to the W-Shop for 28 KinzCash. The player may now sell the remaining food in the dock at this time. Additionally, the player may sell the PSI and the Pet Special Food (PSF), Welcome Balloon, and Pet Care Guidebook for an additional 48 KinzCash.

Food	Sell Value
Ball Cap	10 KC
Red Bow	8 KC
Red T-Shirt	5 KC
Greatest Peanuts on Earth (Pet Special Food)	13 KC
Blue Welcome Balloon	10 KC
Pet Care Guidebook	25 KC
Total	76 KC

The player may then remove all of the furniture and decorations in the room and sell them to the W-Shop. Additionally, the preset wallpaper and flooring may removed by purchasing the cheapest wallpaper and flooring options from the W-Shop and replacing the preset wallpaper and flooring. The cheapest wallpaper and flooring in the W-Shop are the Blue Wall Paint (W-Shop wallpaper section, page 1) for 50 KinzCash and the Blue Flooring (W-Shop flooring section, page 1) for 45 KinzCash, for a net loss of 95 KinzCash. However, once the player replaces the preset flooring and wallpaper, the preset wallpaper and flooring may be sold for a combined 350 KinzCash, which is a net gain of 255 KinzCash.

Food	Buy/Sell Value
Blue Wall Paint	'-50 KC
Blue Flooring	'-45 KC
Sweet 16 Flooring	175 KC
Sweet 16 Wallpaper	175 KC
Total	255 KC

Once the room and dock are empty, the player should use the Things To Do Menu to navigate to the Kinzville Map. The map contains a number of sellable items which should be removed to the map's dock (shown on the right-hand menu).

These buildings may be kept on the map. The table below shows the sellable items and sell values for each item. The total value of all sellable items on the Kinzville Map is 7,678 KinzCash.
