Okkazeo used to offer a "Premium" <ref name=":0">{{Cite web |date=2025-08-21 |title=End of Premium Program |url=https://www.okkazeo.com/users/premium |website=Official Okkazeo website}}</ref> status to its users. This came with several benefits : it was a '''one-time payment''' to be able to promote 5 active sales simultaneously (instead of only 1 for free users) and additional advantages. Some users perceived this permanent transaction as a good investment as well as a nice way to promote and encourage a growing website.

In 2023, Okkazeo revoked its users' lifetime subscription and turned it into an annual subscription<ref name=":1">{{Cite web |date=2025-08-21 |title=New VIP Subscription |url=https://www.okkazeo.com/users/abonnement_vip |url-status= |website=Okkazeo Official Website}}</ref> (to be renewed at the anniversary of the original payment date, should it be less than 1 year old). Some new limitations were also introduced to non-paying users, like not being able to see the new games for sales for the first 24 hours of publication of each new item, leaving a significant advantage to buyers of the new formula.

[[File:VIP Impact.jpg|center|thumb|VIP users (theoretically for life) will continue to have access to their privileges up to 1 year after subscription anniversary. If the VIP purchase dates back more than 1 year ago, privileges stop immediately. Users are then encouraged to purchase a yearly subscription on top of the "no longer for life" advantage they purchased.Interestingly, the payment for the premium membership is referred to as a "gift" which seems to make it of lesser importance and thus less engaging for the provider.]]
