  6. What Does It Take To Make Money? A great game!

  7. Premium Currency Exchange Rate Setting a higher conversion rate for premium currency allows for more flexibility • Recommended minimum:100 Coins/Gems/Bucks, etc = $1 • Take full advantage of alternative payment platforms, especially useful for low friction, low payout advertisements (Video ads, Facebook likes, etc) • Boost user engagement (Facebook, Twitter, Inviting Friends, Creating an Account, etc)

  8. Case Study: Increasing Currency Exchange Rate Increasing the exchange rate enabled more video inventory • Revenue performance increased by 54% even though DAU was decreasing • Tapjoy Video revenue increased from $15 - $20 per day to an average $275 per day Unique Monetizing Currency Rate Changed

  9. Currency Sales Goal is to drive more revenue and first time purchasers during the limited time sale. • You can fight normal revenue dips with a well timed currency sale – revenue typically spikes 1.5x. • Timing: Shoot for weekends, holidays, but don’t over do it or you may cannibalize revenue over the long run. • Optimize the amount by targeting a small % of your users before targeting your entire user base. Better yet, target only non-paying users.

  10. Case Study: Magic Piano Tapjoy Currency Promotion Doubles Magic Piano’s Revenue & Sustains Growth Unique Monetizing “We found that increasing our virtual currency exchange rate for a long weekend boosted our Tapjoy attached revenue but did not materially affect our IAP sales.” – Ryan Chesley, Product Manager at Smule

  11. The Japanese ‘Secret Sauce’ – Limited Time Events Limited time events can boost ARPDAU by 3x to 5x the norm and boost engagement • Goal - offer users the ‘new/unique’ content during limited time • Players must grind until the end of an event to earn the ‘rare’ rewards, however, all • users are rewarded and purchasing content improves your chances • While especially useful in collection games, this mechanic can be applied creatively • across other F2P games

  12. Localization - Conquering the World Boost revenue and distribution upon app launch • Significantly improves your chances of getting featured in foreign territories • Asia is growing at an incredible rate – this is a market that can’t be ignored • Distimocompared apps performances week over week after localizing: • Results - 128% growth in downloads and 26% increase in revenue *App Annie Report - 11/29/12

  15. Which Ad Units Are Right For My Game? CASUAL Usage: Low Engaged User/Massive User Base Monetization: Low ARPDAU ($.01-$.04) Ad Solution: Alt Pay/Featured Ads/Video Ads Banner Ads/Cross Promo Wall HARDCORE Usage: Highly Engaged User/Smaller User Base Monetization: High ARPDAU ($.15-$1.00) Ad Solution: Alternative Payment Platform CORE Usage: Engaged User/Large User Base Monetization: Mid Level ARPDAU ($.04-$.15) Ad Solution: Alternative Payment Platform Featured Ads/Video Ads Are you leaving revenue on the table? Are you balancing user engagement with monetization?

  16. R Currency Store Design (The Bad) • Text is too small • Unimaginative icons • Nothing grabs the user, no calls to action • How much does each package cost? Put most • popular purchase first.

  17. R Currency Store Design (The Good) • Use icons over text when possible • Design for the phone, not tablet, use all your real estate • Let users know they’re getting a deal • A well designed, clean store = happy customer
