Get Started

Your Player Card

Click on your penguin to bring up your player card. Your card will tell you how many coins you have. The top tab on the right is for clothing and accessories. The bottom tab is for options like colors, flags and backgrounds. If you don’t own any items, you won’t see any listed. If you are a member, you can buy items with the coins you earn.

Buying Clothes (Members Only)

If you are a member, you can spend your coins to buy items or furniture for your penguin. To buy clothing and accessories, go into the Gift Shop or Sport Shop and click on the catalog. Click ‘Buy Now’ in the catalog for the item you wish to purchase. When you buy an item, it gets added to your inventory shown on the player card. Rare Items: these can be purchased on the Pirate Ship (The Migrator). It arrives in Club Penguin every two months and stays for up to two weeks. To purchase an item, click the catalog on the right of the screen. Rare items include clothing and furniture. Your penguin will not automatically wear the item you purchased. You must edit (or customize) your penguin to wear your new clothing.

Buying Clothes: Limited Editions

The clothing catalog for your penguin changes every month. With each new catalog, some items will no longer be available, and new items will be introduced. If you see another penguin with an item that is not in the catalog, it is an older item. Some clothing items remain in the catalog even though you can’t see them. They are hidden. To find these items use your mouse and watch for an icon to appear. Click on it to see the clothing item. Sometimes, a limited-edition item will come back, so if you wait long enough you may have a chance to own it, too.

The top tab is for clothing and accessory items; the bottom tab is for colors and flags. To change your penguin’s color, select the lower tab of your player card.
