What does this mean for players?
For players, the change to the Pro Membership means they will see fewer benefits when making purchases. The ability to earn points that can be redeemed for discounts or other perks is an important reason many customers stay loyal to GameStop. The question is whether these changes will hurt customer retention, especially as competition in gaming retail continues to grow. Customers will need to decide whether it is still worth staying in the Pro Membership, particularly if the benefits are being reduced.
