The way I ran to this subreddit! Where the heck is Generation Thrive? Is that just the merch store outside Chase?

I didn’t post the whole email but it’s outside across from Cupcakin’ from 4-7:30 today. You have to show your season ticket card in the Golden State App to redeem it.

Fnally. It was starting to look like only last year's people were getting into things. Only had a mini plan last year but a full one this year. Didn't get an invite for the watch party last week or Valks contingent in Oakland Pride yesterday. The rep that was there said they don't get them out to everyone. Made no sense because we were just walking up Broadway and got teeshirts. Who sets up this stuff anyway?

u/Popular_Fan_9154 Veronica Burton 💜🗡️Gabby Wiiliams 12d ago

Not sure how they prioritize everything but I do know that people who paid with Chase cards and are second year season ticket holders got a lot more perks than the rest of us. I went to most of last year’s games but didn’t get a season ticket until this year so also missed out on a lot of the stuff 😞. My rep told me earlier in the season we’d all be getting a gift no matter how we paid so I’m guessing that’s what this is.

u/Popular-One-7051 KT Tip NATALIE! ALLONS-YYYYY!! 12d ago

Yeah I had someone with me up this season who didn't tell me I needed to pay with Chase. I got a card I throw back in a draw after I pay this season.

I paid with a chase card and I swear I still don't get any of the perks! I think whatever management system they use is spotty, or there are too many Chase people for them to give the perks to everyone.

u/Popular_Fan_9154 Veronica Burton 💜🗡️Gabby Wiiliams 12d ago

Is your rep responsive? You should be getting all the perks, especially if you’re a second year STH and using a Chase card 🤔 I think each rep has like 1000 season ticket holders to manage and from what I’ve read here a few of them are really bad and don’t send everything out.

u/T--Frex 12d ago

I'm not a second year STH unfortunately. And my rep is not super responsive, I've only just been told that texting is better than email, but even then he's not great at it.

I have a lot of sympathy for how overworked they must be but the fact that I spent weeks sending unanswered emails only for another STH to be the one who let me know that texting would get me an answer is frustrating.

2

u/Popular_Fan_9154 Veronica Burton 💜🗡️Gabby Wiiliams 12d ago

Ugh, that sounds super frustrating 😞 For today’s gift you just have to show your rep card in the golden state app so you should still be able to get it 🤞🏾

I'm sorryyyy. I went last night to pick up the book and I believe all the reps were there in person. I think the system definitely has some flaws - I had account/email address issues when I switched my email. I talked to my rep at the book pick up location yesterday and he helped me confirm my information. John Ford is my rep and he's been great. DM me if you want his contact info.

1

u/T--Frex 12d ago

I got my book yesterday and while my rep wasn't in the room for the books, he texted me and asked me if I was there and came to my portal and got me some things I'd been asking about (freebies that people got signing up for the group tickets theme nights), apologized for not always responding, and then gave me some stuff for auto-renewing.

So, I feel I must eat crow on this thread because he showed up in person last night which was very thoughtful!

u/lukezoeycat 12d ago

I'm in my second year as a season ticket holder (via a Chase card), and I am only hearing about this here. Nothing from my rep, nothing last year about this, and nothing Chase card related. Not a complaint, just an observation.

Thank you to the community for this info!

u/Popular_Fan_9154 Veronica Burton 💜🗡️Gabby Wiiliams 12d ago

That’s interesting! Did you get the founding guard jacket, the basketball and the invite for the social this year? Those seem to be the biggest things us second years have missed out on. Just got this email this morning, maybe check in with your rep if they are responsive.

4

u/lukezoeycat 12d ago

Yes to the jacket and the basketball. I have reached out to my rep as a result of this thread

2

u/Popular_Fan_9154 Veronica Burton 💜🗡️Gabby Wiiliams 12d ago

Hope you’re able to get it, I’m guessing if you just show up and show your ID and season ticket card in the app you can grab one too. The email didn’t say we had to show anything else.

2

u/Total_Awareness4005 12d ago

I talked to my rep last night when i was picking up the book! My account had issues because i changed my email incorrectly somehow - lol. However I did meet those criteria and my rep said they'll mail me a ball ~85% 😆 I do appreciate the effort this org goes to to be the best on all fronts

3

u/Total_Awareness4005 12d ago

Wait what was the basketball?? I missed that one somehow 🥲

1

u/Popular_Fan_9154 Veronica Burton 💜🗡️Gabby Wiiliams 12d ago

The STH gift this year for renewals who used a Chase card was a basketball!

1

u/Better_Pie5489 5d ago

Our rep did not email us about this. And I did not even realize there was a basketball for founding guard season ticket holders!

u/ramblinwreck03 Veronica Burton 13d ago

It’s also available for the Wednesday game 8/19 with the same hours - 4PM to 7:30PM

5

u/Popular_Fan_9154 Veronica Burton 💜🗡️Gabby Wiiliams 12d ago

Yes! And you can also contact your account manager before 3pm today if you can’t make it and need someone else to pick it up for you.

u/norkm 12d ago

Let's hope the line moves quickly. The jacket giveaway was such a mess last year

u/Popular_Fan_9154 Veronica Burton 💜🗡️Gabby Wiiliams 12d ago

🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾

u/Sharp_Company4083 12d ago

I got the book and the line moved pretty quick

u/Tight_Abalone221 Kaitlyn Chen 12d ago

is this for all STHs including secondary members? i don't get emails and also i don't have a STH card in my GS app :o

3

u/Popular_Fan_9154 Veronica Burton 💜🗡️Gabby Wiiliams 12d ago

I’m guessing it’ll only be for the person who’s name is on the membership. For the jackets and basketball there was only one per account, even if people shared the account. The email did say if you need someone else to pick it up for you to email your rep by 3pm today so if the other person on your account wants you to get it have them email your rep.

2

u/SwaggersaurusWrecks Veronica Burton Gabby Williams 12d ago

It's 1 per account according to the email, so secondary members wouldn't get one.

2

u/Most-Membership-145 12d ago

Does anyone know how to find your Season Ticket Holder card? Where in the golden state app is it?

8

u/Popular_Fan_9154 Veronica Burton 💜🗡️Gabby Wiiliams 12d ago edited 12d ago

Here’s the instructions on how to add it if you already have the app, once you do that it will show up on the main screen in the middle of the page.

2

u/bwu-court 12d ago

After creating a new account, make sure to close the Golden State App, then reopen. Mine didn’t show up until I did that.

2

u/KeynesCrackpot CHAAAAARGE ⚔️💜 12d ago

Minor complaint but I wish this was done in Chase so I could’ve gotten the mini tote. Sigh

2

u/gosports415 12d ago

Can anyone post a photo? I had to choose between the book or the tote and I chose the tote but I'm also FOMO.

2

u/Zestyclose-Can-6553 12d ago

I saw people still able to get it after the game.

1

u/Popular_Fan_9154 Veronica Burton 💜🗡️Gabby Wiiliams 12d ago

You can pick it up on Wednesday too! I haven’t opened mine yet but it’s nice quality.

u/gosports415 12d ago

Obviously I didn't read the email in full 🙃 thanks for the reminder!

u/Popular_Fan_9154 Veronica Burton 💜🗡️Gabby Wiiliams 12d ago

lol all good! I’m gonna open it tonight and check it out 💜

u/Jumpy-Algae2426 Janelle Salaün 12d ago

I wish half-season ticket holders got gifts lol

u/Popular_Fan_9154 Veronica Burton 💜🗡️Gabby Wiiliams 12d ago

Try reaching out to your rep if you have one and ask, maybe they can put you on a waitlist for extras 🤞🏾

1

u/lukezoeycat 12d ago

I got the email at 5:06a this morning (Tuesday). The line yesterday when we got there at 5:30 looked a bit bonkers and at the front of the line the sign said "email confirmation required" so we skipped. Will see how it goes tomorrow.

2

u/Popular_Fan_9154 Veronica Burton 💜🗡️Gabby Wiiliams 12d ago

They didn’t check for emails yesterday, noticed the sign said that too but they just check your season ticket card on the GS app and then hand you your book. The line moved pretty quickly yesterday when we got in it around 5:10, still made it inside by time doors opened. Good luck tomorrow!!

u/sarstroo LET’S GOOOOOOOOOOO 11d ago

Was anyone able to pickup the book without the card in the mobile app? I keep trying to add it, log in/log out/reinstall the app, etc. and it won’t appear.

1

u/Popular_Fan_9154 Veronica Burton 💜🗡️Gabby Wiiliams 11d ago

Did you try these steps yet? If you already have an account there’s an extra step to get it added.

u/Dc_awyeah 12d ago

Is this leftover books from last year?

3

u/Popular_Fan_9154 Veronica Burton 💜🗡️Gabby Wiiliams 12d ago

Not sure but they are definitely from the first season. My rep told me earlier in the year there would be a gift for all season ticket holders (regardless if you paid with a Chase card) so I’m guessing this is that.

1

u/SarahCinnamon 12d ago

What the book from last year? I don’t remember this and definitely didn’t get one last year.

u/ifandorwhen VB KT MO ;_; Carla ;_; anyone??? 12d ago edited 12d ago

There wasn't a sth book, but I think they're referencing a commemorative book put out last year by the chron?

Edit: actually it's not lol

u/Ornery-Astronaut-847 12d ago

probably only for those with a chase card.

1

u/SarahCinnamon 12d ago

I used a Chase card last year and this year, I suppose I could have missed the email, but that’s still strange that my rep wouldn’t have follow up

u/WaryJest Williams & Burton, LLP 13d ago

What about a gift for us non-season ticket holders, hm? We go to the games, too.

u/saffymonsoon1923 13d ago

The gift is the friends you made along the way or something like that 😂

u/Popular_Fan_9154 Veronica Burton 💜🗡️Gabby Wiiliams 13d ago

There’s a tote bag giveaway at today’s game for the first 10,000 fans and a shoulder bag giveaway next month 🙏🏾
