Powerful advantage giving items, spend to save time, almost anything can be monetized

Hybrid Subscription model• Benefits / items which normally cost a lot can be bought with in-game gold for a

limited period of time

• Have to spend a minimal amount every 2 months to enjoy benefits again

• Balanced by requiring players to spend in game gold.

East Asian countries (Philippines, Indonesia, etc)

• But they have a gaming culture and are willing to pay for virtual goods

• First purchase price threshold is about US$2 – 5; compared with: – US$7 – 15 for Taiwan– US$8 - 20 for Singapore– US$10 – 50 for US
