Monetization Overview
Last updated on
AccelByte Cloud's Monetization services are responsible for supporting your online and in-game stores, through which players can order and purchase games, in-game items, virtual currency, and other types of assets. Our Monetization services can help you create stores and items to sell in them, manage payments, orders, fulfillments, and entitlements, and manage in-app purchases.
We support a wide-range of payment methods, such as WxPay, AliPay, Visa, and Mastercard, as well as Xsolla, Adyen, and Stripe payment aggregators.
AccelByte Cloud's Monetization services offer several advantages for game developers, including:
- Security first AccelByte does not retain any data related to your transactions, as all transactions are managed by your payment aggregator. We only support payment aggregators with proven security credentials.
- Engage your players with campaigns You can easily create redemption codes for your campaigns. Codes can be created in our Admin Portal or uploaded as a CSV file, and you can choose how many times a code can be redeemed and how many times a player can redeem codes.
- Bring your game to a global audience Our Monetization services can support region specific catalogs, pricing, and discounts. Tailoring your pricing and product offering to different regions can help you reach new audiences and find new fans.
- Highlight your brand The catalog and payment station UI are fully customizable, to match your brand and the aesthetic of your game.
