Making money
You will earn revenue from each game
your website sells.
User step-by-step activity:
A user clicks on a link on your website to download and install a game.
When the user launches the game for the first time, a timed trial period begins.
When the trial period is over, the game recommends the full version.
Once the user pays for the game, he or she receives a registration code that removes the limitations of the trial version.
The affiliate system acknowledges your website as the point of sale.
