Integration with PlayFab

How it works

PlayFab is a server-based platform for game developers that allows you to implement your game economy without coding. You can integrate PlayFab to provide a server side for your project and receive notifications after every successful purchase of your products via the Commerce API.

Main features:

• Complex server-based solution for releasing your games.
• Support for many gaming platforms.
• Deep analytics for tracking user behaviour.

Who can use it

• Partners who integrated PlayFab and now want to increase their virtual goods (virtual currency and virtual items) distribution area via Buy Button or In-Game Store.
• Partners who integrated the Buy Button solution or Player Inventory and now want to export user inventories to PlayFab.
