G2A.COM launched a game developer support program

Trading platform G2A.COM announced the launch of a program aimed at developers and publishers – G2A Direct.

Thanks to the program, developers and publishers will be able to independently sell on G2A.COM keys to your gaming products.

The advantages of working with a specific platform for developers, among other things, will be:

• a low percentage that takes itself as an intermediary G2A.COM (10.8% instead of the traditional 30% for other sites);
• the ability to charge a commission on their products whose keys are sold by a third party (up to 10%);
• the ability to track the codes of their games in the database G2A.COM (in fact, to check the keys, whether there was a fraud and so on).

Participants of the program will also be able to create their own official page with a profile and a showcase of their products on the site. On the pages of games, offers from the developer will be highlighted in a special way.

Opening the doors to the site to developers and publishers is a serious step for G2A.COM . Initially, the main feature of the site was the ability for users to sell keys to games to each other. Now, someone who was directly involved in the creation of ongoing projects can also act as an official intermediary.

The program was the site’s response to public criticism from tinyBuild Games, which accused G2A.COM the fact that it allows you to sell keys obtained fraudulently (unscrupulous users purchased them in certain stores using fake cards, and then the keys were sold to other players). It is assumed that G2A Direct will effectively combat such schemes.

The number of registered users of the site has reached 10 million people. For comparison, the number of Steam users is 125 million, and Origin is about 50 million.
