The flashing lights and rows of games might draw you in but let’s be honest: seeing what you can take home is one of the best parts of visiting a Funstation arcade.
So, what can you actually win at Funstation?
Arcade prizes have come a long way. Yes, you will still find the fun gizmos, pocket-money toys and brilliant bits and bobs that arcades are known for. But at Funstation, not only are we are proud of the variety of games in our venues, but we take just as much pride in the prizes you can win—both directly from selected games and from our Prize Stations.
From blind boxes, plush characters and instant-win rewards to sweets, branded and licensed merchandise, gadgets and major prizes worth saving your points for, there is something for all ages and interests with plenty of ways to win.
The Prizes are part of the experience
Choosing a prize should feel every bit as exciting as winning the points for it. That is why we work with some of the UK’s top prize suppliers to bring a varied selection to our venues. Our teams keep an eye on the latest characters, brands and trends, helping us stock prizes that people genuinely want to take home.
Alongside our core selection and the latest trending products, you may find seasonal ranges appearing throughout the year, including spooky Halloween prizes, festive Christmas items and Easter treats. Our Prize Stations are regularly refreshed, with new items arriving weekly, so you might spot something completely different each time you visit.
What types of prizes can you win at Funstation?
Every Funstation is a little different and stock changes regularly, but there are two main ways to win: take home an instant prize directly from one of our games or collect points to spend at the Prize Station.
Instant-win prizes
Sometimes, nothing beats the excitement of winning a prize there and then. Games such as Container, Over the Edge and Winfall give you the chance to win a prize directly from the game. Make a successful play and enjoy the instant satisfaction of watching your prize drop.
Blind boxes and Collectables You might win one of our popular blind boxes, adding the extra excitement of not knowing which character or collectable is waiting inside until you open it. You might find a favourite straight away... or be tempted to keep playing and complete the set.
Plush Toys and Favourite Characters
Many of our plush toys are won through a combination of skill and luck on our cranes or skill cut game and they remain firm Funstation favourites. Our selection can include everything from smaller plush toys and bagclips to larger-than-life teddies, featuring popular licensed characters and recognisable names.
Prize Station prizes
Selected games award prize points directly to your Funcard, which you can exchange for a prize or save across multiple visits for something bigger.
Sweets and Treats
Sometimes you want the satisfaction of choosing a reward there and then. Sweets and treats are ideal for spending a few points at the end of your visit.
Gizmos, Toys and Novelty Prizes
No arcade would be complete without a few fun bits and bobs. Think fidgets, novelty toys, stationery, games and pocket-money prizes; perfect if choosing something is part of the fun every time you visit.
Branded and Licenced Merchandise
If you are an avid Funstation visitor, you will know that we do not always stick to tradition and our Prize Stations certainly are not limited to toys.
We keep up with current trends and work with leading suppliers, including Bandai Namco and PMS International, to offer officially licensed merchandise such as mugs, posters, keyrings and collectable figurines. Our ranges change as new characters, films and crazes arrive, so there may be something new to discover each time you visit.
Games, Activites and Gadgets
Depending on the venue and current stock, you can also find puzzles, craft sets, board games, LEGO sets, outdoor toys and water games, gadgets and other prizes you can continue enjoying long after your visit.
Bigger Prizes Worth Saving For
We pride oursleves on prizes that make you stop at the Prize Station and think: “I’m saving for that!”
Our major prizes give regular players something bigger to work towards. Instead of spending your points straight away, you can build your balance over future visits and get more value from everything you have collected. Think PlayStation 5 and Xbox consoles, Nintendo Switch systems, Fujifilm cameras, console accessories and more.

Your Funcard keeps the fun going
One of the best things about a Funstation Funcard is that you do not have to use all your balances in one visit. Your remaining tokens and the points you win are stored on your Funcard, ready for the next time you play.
That means there is no need to carry pockets full of coins or handfuls of paper tickets. You are always in control of how you use your balance: spend your points on a smaller prize today or save them over several visits for something bigger.
Whether you are a spender or a saver, the important thing is to keep hold of your Funcard and bring the same one back with you. Your next prize might be closer than you think.
You can also register your name and email address to your Funcard, helping to keep your balance protected while giving you access to news, updates and exclusive rewards through our Sign Up & Save programme.
How do you win prize points at Funstation?
Selected games award prize points based on how well you play. You might need quick reactions, accurate aim, perfect timing or a little bit of luck. Any prize points you win are loaded directly onto your Funcard.
Once you have finished playing, you can check your balance using any card reader or kiosk, then head over to the Prize Station to browse and decide whether it is time to redeem or keep saving.
There is no single “best” game for winning prize points, as everyone has different strengths and abilities. Try a few different games, find your favourites and enjoy the challenge. You might discover a talent for basketball, master the timing on Quik Drop or land a big win when you are least expecting it on the likes of Fishbowl Frenzy!
What will you choose?
Will you pick a sweet treat before you leave, find some merchandise featuring a favourite character or keep building your balance for one of the biggest prizes on display?
With new trends, seasonal stock and different rewards arriving throughout the year, there is always another reason to check the Prize Station—or browse our online catalogue—and see what catches your eye.
Prize ranges, games and point values vary by location and are subject to availability. Images and products shown online may change as new stock arrives.
