sP vouchers are cumbersome, and deal in pathetic amounts of sP. I suggest adjusting them for inflation today by changing all of their values and making a new daily limit:

becomes 50,000 sP becomes 100,000 sP [item=1,000 sP Voucher] becomes 500,000 sP [item=5,000 sP Voucher] becomes 1,000,000 sP [item=10,000 sP Voucher] becomes 5,000,000 sP

I think these large sums of money would make gifting sP much easy (as well as being able to track sP transactions)

How could we apply this change to the current vouchers? Maybe they could still be around but retire and become rare rewards from the rift? (They would only be good as collectables anyway).

No support.

It was never intentional to use vouchers for large amounts. Even fourteen years ago when the Exchange was on the map and when vouchers were new that wasn't a lot of sP.

If users want to transfer large amounts of sP, they can use Trades.

I like this idea. Agree that the numbers are strangely small, lol.

For new item ideas.. the Subeta staff could riff off red packets in Asian cultures, which are used to gift money in. Maybe different designs on a red packet that could indicate the value of sP inside? hehe.

Higher value sp vouchers would be nice if you want to surprise a person with a ammount of sp (for example under their christmas tree or for people who like to do those anon stories with a gift things). However changing the old vouchers to a new value sounds like a inflation disaster waiting to happen.

Would love to see higher voucher values, but definitely don't support changing the existing ones. Just add more.

[edit] This already exists, it gives out a random amount of sP (not a lot, if I remember correctly).

I agree. Keep the old ones and just make new ones just so we don't have a massive influx of sp back into the system.

This. I do think it'd be nice to be able to gift a substantial amount of sp outside of trades if we want to surprise our friends or do gift-giving for holidays.

Even if you were to use them for gift, they are pathetic and beaten by the trade center. 10,000 sP is nothing. "Oh boy, I am gonna gift someone sP, but I want it to be a surprise. I wish there was an easy way to give them a lot of sP!", one says as they find out the biggest sP voucher is 10,000

Roger that. I think making new ones is better.

Oh yeah! We could have more though. There are some really fun shiny designs for red packets.

But if we do get a new item for sP vouchers I don't have like a boring voucher looking thing, so anything fun would do.

Personally, I'd prefer to let the current voucher system die. Modernize sP gifting/transfers instead.

Add a direct limited quantity pin-protected sP transfer option to the bank, or the gift center (this could work with the red envelope like how wrapping paper works now 👀 ). With a sent/received transfer log for safety, the option to add a little message and the option to opt out of this entirely/make it friends-only.

I quite like this! Would be fun during Lumi when newer users get absolutely gift bombed to be able to include a nice amount of sP as well.

I do like 's alternate.

While I wouldn't be opposed to seeing Vouchers die, they do answer the question "What is a subetapoint, what does a subetapoint even look like?". That the sP Voucher Exchange is a black-market off-the-map place where the amounts are not useful suits this quaint, minor function.

Omg yes to this! I've wanted something like this for a very long time!

Oh that works EVEN better! Maybe I could edit OP to suggest this idea instead!

If you want to, go for it! :D You can always keep both suggestions in the OP.

The current vouchers were useful way back when having 10m was unheard of, hah. I figured that, if the economy ends up changing, having actual vouchers (100k, or 1m ones) would lead to them needing tweaks again somewhere down the road. A way to gift sP would be an easier way to solve it, and adjusting the cap for how much you can transfer in one go is easier than adding new voucher items every time tweaks need to be made to the sP amount they give.

I would prefer a way to just transfer the sP to someone else, rather then make more vouchers, as someone mentioned above.

It would be nice to help out newer people by sending them gifts and then add a bit of sP as well to help them get started. (You can through trades, but if you wanted to remain anonymous, that's a little hard, haha.)

Really REALLY love the idea of being able to gift sp amounts through the gift center!

[edit] Could also work for CSC, maybe? Something like the trade system we have in place.

The thing is that the amount of CSC per voucher will always be worth it. But sP will fluctuate. It's better if sP could just be sent "as it is". The CSC vouchers work perfectly, tho.

True, the CSC credit cards work great as is, I was just thinking about how the trade center works with its ability to deduct both sp and CSC from your account. Being able to send CSC through the gift center directly would just save a small step of having to buy the cards haha.
