There are three different Time Zones in Webkinz World: Asian, European, and American. An account's zone is determined at the time an account is created; it cannot be changed afterward.

Prior to July 8, 2015,

all accounts created after July 8, 2015 [Boper- removed time zone creation with addition of Webkinz X] are american accounts in eastern time, but euro and asian continue on their timezones

euro = central european time, asia = korean time

In Webkinz World

True Kinz Time

Hourly selection at the Curio Shop and Today's Activities happen in True KinzTime. This means they happen three times a day, once in each of the Webkinz World time zones at the time on the account's clock.

For example, if a rare item at the Curio Shop is available at 8:00 am KinzTime, it will be for sale at 8:00 am KinzTime in each of the time zones. Asian accounts get it first, at 8:00 am Asian time, European accounts get it next at 8:00 am Euro time (5 or 6 hours after Asian), and American accounts get it last at 8:00 am American time (13 or 14 hours after Asian).

Same Real Time

Hourly splendorific items at the KinzStyle Outlet, Mr. Moo in the Kinzville Park, and scheduled tournaments at the Webkinz Stadium all happen at the Same Real Time in Webkinz World. This means that they happen at the same time on American, European and Asian accounts irrespective of KinzTime.

For example, if a Splendorific is available at 8:00 am KinzTime on American accounts, it is simultaneously available at 1:00 pm KinzTime on European accounts and at 10:00 pm KinzTime on Asian accounts.

Rollover

Most activities on European or Asian accounts roll over at midnight in their respective timezones. The following activities rollover at midnight American KinzTime.

Wish of the Day at the Wish Factory
kp/trading once per day with another member
Filled Pet Care Hearts Pet Care and Family Score
Game of the Day at the Arcade
Asking friends for items for Collection events
mobile wow
events in kinzville park
watching videos in watch & win room or wkn room in clubhouse
deluxe previews

things that start at midnight am, despite messages

challenges
floaty clickies

daylight savings

eu's dst is staggered, asia no dst, so when american accounts are on dst curio time is off

Your Time

The important thing, of course, is to figure out when something you want to do in Webkinz World is going to happen in your time. Depending on where you live, you are probably going to have to add or subtract a certain number of hours to know when to log on to Webkinz World.

The four time zones that cover most Webkinz Insider members have been included in the chart below.
