Membership fees at Costco seemingly won’t be increasing anytime soon, company officials shared during an earnings call on Thursday.Costco CFO Richard Galanti shared during the call that the company has seen “strong renewal rates, strong new signups and strong loyalty” regarding its membership program. Costco says its one-ounce gold bars are selling out fast “We haven’t needed to do it. We like providing extreme value,” Galanti said. “Certainly, while we have gone a little longer without an average increase, we feel we have driven more value to the membership.”“It’s a question of when, not if, but with this juncture, we feel good about what we are doing.”During an earnings call in September, Galanti said a price increase for the company’s yearly membership is expected but didn’t disclose when it would roll out.Since 2017, Costco’s Gold Star membership has cost $60 and the Executive membership has cost $120.
