VIP
Three per-season packages — and the Gold pass that can buy back a life.
VIP is a per-season status sold in three packages — Bronze, Silver and Gold. Access comes through a tradeable VIP code, so buying a code and activating it are separate steps. Each package lasts the full season, and you are never locked into the first one you buy: passes upgrade in place, at any point in the season.
The three packages
Paying with $CRIME takes a standing 10% off any package (from your in-game balance or straight from your wallet). Finish a season holding Gold and the next season opens with a one-use 20% off any package, which stacks with the $CRIME discount for 30% off. It arrives when the new season starts — not during the season you earned it in — and waits until you spend it.
What every package gives
Silver and Gold only
VIP-exclusive Black Market hardware — The Equalizer, VX-Null, the Nano Suit, Neuralink, and Don’s Cane — unlocks at Silver. Bronze does not open it.
Gold only
Upgrading mid-season
Start on Bronze and you can still finish on Gold. Activating a code above your current tier moves you onto that package outright: every recurring rate is replaced by the higher one — not added to it — and you are paid the new tier's full one-time activation package as well (its tickets, cash, stat lump, and for Gold the bullets, the starter assets and the medal). Whatever the earlier pass already paid out is yours to keep.
It only ever goes up. A code at or below the tier you already hold cannot be activated on yourself — it stays fully giftable and sellable on the Flea Market, and an unused Gold pass is still worth holding as a revival. Upgrading costs the new package's full price; there is no part-exchange for the pass you are leaving behind, so buying the tier you actually want first is still the cheapest route to it.
