Kakao Membership is designed to provide users with the combined value of Kakao’s existing paid services as well as newly added benefits. In particular, a welcome benefit for new members and additional reward points for Kakao Gift purchases have been newly introduced. Previously, the KakaoTalk Gift service did not have a separate reward point system for purchases.

Kakao will launch Kakao Membership in a soft launch format on October 1. To ensure initial service stability, registration will be on a first-come, first-served basis for a limited user group, and will gradually expand to a wider audience. On October 1, Kakao will provide an open notification message and application link via the Kakao Membership Talk Channel.

Kim Mingyu, Kakao's Performance Leader, stated, "Kakao Membership is more than simply bundling benefits. It is designed to ensure that users can enjoy a more convenient and seamless benefits experience within a single membership," adding, "We plan to continue providing reasonable benefits that can only be experienced through Kakao Membership in the future."

The specific benefits and membership application methods for Kakao Membership are expected to be announced on October 1.
