VIP Passes are now available in the [Pirate Nation Shop](https://piratenation.game/shop) for purchase and they offer several benefits to subscribers. Purchasing with staked $PIRATE will offer the usual 10% discount.  VIP can be purchased in increments of 1, 3, and 12 months. Note that the VIP pass is soulbound and must be consumed in the inventory screen in order to access the benefits.

Every time a VIP player defeats a Gauntlet battle, they'll receive bonus BOOTY Points and PGLD on top of the rewards they would normally receive.

The BOOTY values for winning each Gauntlet battle are doubled and the PGLD rewards are increased as follows:

| Gauntlet stage | Normal Gauntlet PGLD | Hard Gauntlet PGLD |
| -------------- | -------------------- | ------------------ |
| 1              | +25                  | +50                |
| 2              | +25                  | +50                |
| 3              | +50                  | +75                |
| 4              | +50                  | +125               |
| 5              | +100                 | +200               |

Energy regenerates 25% faster, meaning VIP subscribers can use up to 200 Energy every rolling 24-hour period.

Banana Bill has struck a deal with his monkey crews so that VIP players no longer need to spend Bananas to make use of the Monkey Business building. The only limits on Monkey Business for VIP subscribers will be Energy and Skill levels.
