Today marks the fifth year of Club Pogo — as with every year so far, we’ve all (well Club members have) been awarded this special edition badge. You’ll see it in your Badge Album under Special Edition Badges.

Over the five years, Pogo has created 38 Club-exclusive games, over 1500 badges, and tons of mini items (and pets)! You’re also among over one and a half million Club Pogo members — pretty cool, huh?
Don’t forget that also as part of the celebration Pogo has put some mini items on sale for 20% off and over 50 mix and match badges are on sale too.
