When/why has the price of Pokebank increased?
Feb. 11, 2015When it first came out, it was $5 (Australian), I’ve tried to purchase access and found it was up to $6.50. When it first came out, we were promised a ‘minimal’ cost. 30% increase is hardly ‘keeping up with inflation’, so just how ‘minimal’ will this cost continue to be, because I’m not looking forward to some $20 in 5 years…

It’s 5 Pounds, Euros or USD but not AUD.

In the case where it increases in the future, it’ll probably be because of one or more of the following reasons;1. Inflation (around 2.5% a year on average in Australia)2. Weakening Australian Dollar. They could adjust the price to match the Yen or something in terms of currency conversion - the AUD is quite weak right now, especially against the USD3. Loss in profit. They’d obviously crank up the price if they needed to make a little more money to break even or something.
