Fortnite makes buying V-Bucks more meaningful

Five years later, Fortnite and other Epic mobile games finally return to iOS, and the epic game marks the occasion by introducing major bonuses for those who spend money in the game: 20% bonus cash All purchases from Fortnite, Rocket League and Fall were made in the Epic Games store using Epic's own payment system, a huge boost that it usually offers. Even better, this change is permanent and already exists.

But that's not all – 20% cashback will apply all Purchases made through EGS until the end of August. If this percentage seems to be high, it is because it is. Under these terms, purchasing a new $70 game will get a net credit of $14, which you can use in the Epic Games store in addition to your subscription.

The motivation EPIC took is to encourage players to spend money directly with them, rather than through Apple’s App Store, which earns its own percentage of health from every purchase. For Fortnite in particular, Apple enjoys a 30% discount for each purchase of V-Bucks – by comparison, offering a 20% bonus for the 20% bonus, allowing Epic to get the full purchase amount from the normal transaction fees, and since the reward cash can only be spent on the Epic Games store, assume that players are invested in the company’s ecosystem.

When players on iOS now try to buy V-Bucks, they have the option to do this through the App Store or using Epic's own payment system, while the Epic option shows the revenue you will receive for rewards. The epic rewards credit applies it to your account two weeks after making the related purchase, and once you have obtained that account, you can use it for anything other than a subscription. This means you can earn this 20% cashback by subscribing to Fortnite Crew, but you can’t use store credit to pay for crew subscriptions.

This option is only for people who use Fortnite on PC, mobile or streaming – using Fortnite on PlayStation, Xbox or Switch, you won't be able to pay for Epic directly when they buy V-Bucks on those platforms. But the console player is still available Fortnite Online Store And earn 20% of the cash in this way.

This is a convenient moment for many Fortnite fans, as Mace Windu will arrive at the Fortnite item store tonight – the first new Star Wars project store released in the current Star Wars season.
