Is there a Zen sale going on now?

in Star Trek Online General Discussion
In the News section, it says: "25% Off Everything in the C-store!... In addition to the previously announced ways you can save on Zen on all three platforms."

I can't find the announcement for a Zen sale and it doesn't seem to show the additional Zen when you try to purchase.

25% off AND a Zen sale would make stuff very attractive.

    After some googling, found it:

    https://arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/10922413

    However, be sure to look at the start time for the sale - I almost bought before the actual sale started.

    pity we dont get any of the special extra bonus items when you buy zen... they have run those events several times for Neverwinter...

    It says 25% off everything, but the the gamma packs are already on sale for the launch of the expansion, aren't they?

    Is the sale not active yet? I choose the $100 option and it's still the same bonus that it always is without a 25 percent addition.

    Always best to wait a couple of hours to buy things like that to be sure.

    hmmmm
    $200 = 28,000 Zen
    $100 = 13,500 Zen

    1,000 Zen extra or roughly 3.7% more zen if I spend $200 up front vs $100 in two separate transactions.

    FYI Gamma Pack is also 25% off on product page for cash.... $97.49 USD. I'll check in game zen price & make a decision. Already have starter pack... too bad cash product does not show the discounted price as well.

    Cool of Cryptic to tandem the -25% off Store items with the Zen bonus although I don't plan to participate in it.

    Back when I would've purchased Zen just because it was on sale I never went over the $100 amount increment since the bonus severely diminishes from there to the $200 amount compared to the other lower bonuses ratio to money spent imo.

    Yeah at $100 the bonus is 10% or 1,000 zen.

    at $200 the bonus is 15% or 3,000 zen.

    I still need the newer 9 ship escort bundle & the gamma xpan... so roughly 20,000... thou I'm waffing.

    I still have plenty of ships I have not mastered yet on my toons... so I could live with the $100 zen to buy the xpan. But you do get an extra 1k zen if you spend $200 upfront... it would be easier if they gave us bonus items in game for buying zen as an extra incentive... got a T5 & T6 the last and only time they did that kind of promo

    Also, the C-store sale doesn't last as long as the Zen sale -so plan accordingly.

    I have some questions. So with the bonus Zen sale how much Zen can I get for 200$? I know you get 20000+3000 bonus as the "normal" item but what about the 25% advertised in the article? Is that on top of the bonus?

    If you buy $200 all at once, the final amount you should get is 28,000 zen.
