Monetization Optimization
Monetization optimization is the science and art of maximizing revenue from your game without alienating your player base. The right monetization strategy — one that feels fair, rewarding, and transparent — can turn a good game into a sustainable business. Kreonit provides end-to-end monetization analysis, design, and implementation for mobile, PC, and console titles.
Core Monetization Models
In-App Purchases (IAP)
Cosmetics, consumables, power-ups, and expansions sold within the game. We design IAP catalogs and pricing tiers that maximize conversion without creating pay-to-win friction.
Battle Pass and Subscription
Recurring revenue through seasonal battle passes and subscription tiers that offer exclusive content, XP boosts, and premium features on a cadence players anticipate.
Ad Monetization
Rewarded video ads, interstitials, and banner placements tuned for maximum eCPM without disrupting gameplay flow — especially effective for free-to-play mobile titles.

|---|---|---|---|
| IAP | Variable | Low-Medium | RPG, Strategy |
| Battle Pass | High | Low | Live-service games |
