A Gold Booster Pack contains one random gold character (19 out of 91 total: 13 from the Store, along with Shazam/Prime , the three non-Challenge Red Son cards, and two Console-Unlock (WBID) characters) as well as two random support cards or upgrade cards. They can be bought for 100,000 Power Credits each, and a discounted pack was available once per day for a cheaper price of 75,000 Power Credits, but was changed to $5.99.
While being an unreliable way to obtain cards to promote a character, and the most common cards from the pack are the cheapest ones such as Bane/Prime, The Joker/Insurgency and Black Adam/Regime, the gold pack is nevertheless cheaper than any single gold card and was previously the only way to obtain Shazam/Prime (until the release of the Most Wanted Pack later on).
The Dawn of Justice Gold Pack added in the 2.8 update is very similar to this pack (despite having higher price) and it used to be the only way to obtain Batman/Dawn of Justice, and with the 2.10 update, came the Dawn of Justice Premium Pack, which allows a chance to obtain ALL 3 of the Dawn of Justice characters.
Challenge and Online Battle Season characters cannot be found in Gold Booster Packs; they are only available in Challenge Booster Packs and certain temporary packs.

Trivia
- Three of the most common drops from the Gold Booster Pack, as stated above, have all been given buffs to make them significantly stronger - with Black Adam/Regime being the most affected of all.
- During the Black Friday sale of 2016, some packs were brought back at a 25% discount, and the daily reduced Gold Booster Pack (with its usual display of 25% discount) is actually being displayed as "0% off"!
The Pack being discounted at 0%!
- For a brief moment, the discounted Gold Booster Pack was replaced with the Daily Gold Pack which costs $4.99 while containing the exact same contents like the normal Gold Booster Pack, in which it also appeared beside.
- It is possible to earn free Power Credits from this pack if you get Shazam/Prime and decide to sell him, since he's 118,500 credits worth, so you'll get 18,500 more credits than before buying the pack.
- Special Offer Pack has the exact character pool of the Gold Booster Pack, with the same drop rate for each character.
