There are monthly, quarterly (3 months) and yearly VIP-Plans to choose from. Each plan has its own values, extras and VIP assets. The costs of VIP access will be deducted from the IMVU Gift Card until it is depleted, the subscription ends automatically afterwards. IMVU Gift Cards can only be used for a VIP-subscription if any currently active VIP-subscription is first cancelled and/or ended. Once this is done, you can enable the VIP-subscription again, this time deducting the costs from an IMVU Gift Card.
