in app purchase success?

reginald.bernardin

Hello

I was wondering if people had any big successes with in app purchases. Currently i haven't made a dime with my in app and it's been out for a few months now. my one in app offer no ads, 100,000 score, all achievements and a bonus stage. I wonder why i haven't have at least a fews purchases. any tips? thanks

Didn't you post the same question a month ago or so?

Have you taken the advice from your last thread and made your offering 'stronger'. Or is it still the same?

well frankly, my opinion.. most people will deal with ads to not purchase anything. not saying anything about your game. i dont know anything about it or have seen it. buy people wont just pay just for the heck of it. there should be a drive or a want to pay for the in app purchase. but in order for that to happen the game needs to be really good to begin with. not saying anything bad about yours just saying theres a lot of competition so to have people pay for something in yours you must have something they feel they want or need.

@quantum sheep. yes i did post similar post before. my in app before only offered a bonus stage with someone told me it wasn't enough to buy it, so that's why i added more to in app (more points, achievements, no ads, etc). But still no success, so i post a similar post to see if it's working out for other people? more ideas.

I see. I would have just updated the previous thread, but that's just me!

Can I ask for some clarification? By adding more points, does that mean people that pay will get higher scores?

And with the achievements: Do they only register for the player if they've paid? (a bit like having a lite version that doesn't record scores, but the full version does?)

Just curious.

I'll wait here with you then.

yeah quantum. like if they wanted to achieve all the stars they can pay for it. it's called ultra pack that gives them access. Some people want to skip and receive all the points and stars and no ads..
