Monetization Models: Revenue Strategy

How do you get paid? That's the first question, not the last. "Premium" means $60 upfront. Simple. But mobile is mostly "Free-to-Play" (F2P). You get the game for free, and pay for cool skins or speed-ups. It’s a proven model, but you have to be careful not to annoy people.

Then there are subscriptions and Battle Passes. For a game developer in Sydney, choosing the right model depends on the game type. A quick puzzle game works with ads; a deep RPG works with in-app purchases. We help you pick the lane that makes money without making players feel like they're being mugged.
