Create virtual currency

Virtual currency is virtual money that is used for purchasing and selling in-game items. Depending on its purpose, a virtual currency affects the game economy balance or is connected to the monetization of the app. You can also create hard currency — a virtual currency that is linked to the platform of purchase and can be purchased only for real money.

You can sell the virtual currency in predefined amounts. For a package, you can define a special price that doesn’t equal the amount of virtual currency in it.

See the Virtual currency section to learn more about virtual currency.

  1. Open your project in Publisher Account and go to the Items catalog > All items > Virtual currencies section.
  1. Open the project in your account and go to the Items catalog > All items > Virtual currencies section.
  1. Open the project in your account and go to the Items catalog > All items > Virtual currencies section.
  1. Open the project in your account and go to the Items catalog > All items > Virtual currencies section.
  1. Open your project in the account for mobile games and go to the Catalog section.
  1. Click Create manually and select Virtual currency from the drop-down list.
  1. In the General settings section, specify the following:
    1. SKU
    2. One or several groups the item should belong to (optional)
    3. Name
    4. Short description
    5. Extended description — to add it, turn on the corresponding toggle (optional)
  1. In the Media section, upload one or more images or videos (optional) — from your device or via a link. In the store created with the Xsolla site editor, all item cards display the file marked as Main, while the remaining files are available only in item cards with a media gallery. The file marked as Main is also returned in the responses of the catalog retrieval API calls.
  1. In the Price settings section, set prices or create a free item:
    • To set a price, select Paid item, turn on the Pricing in real currency toggle, and specify the price. If needed, configure regional prices.
    • To create a free item, select Free item.
  1. To limit the number of items available for purchase:
    1. Turn on the toggle in the Limits section and specify the quantity.

      • Custom interval. The interval is calculated from the item’s display start date in the store.
      • No regular refresh.
    3. Set up the reset schedule by specifying the parameters that correspond to the selected period.
Note
By default, an item is hidden from the catalog once the purchase limit is reached. If automatic limit reset is configured, the Show item even after users reach the purchase limit checkbox lets you keep the item visible until the next reset cycle begins.
  1. To configure a display time limit for the item (optional):

    1. Turn on the toggle in the Add specific display period section.
    2. Specify the time zone and the beginning and the end of the period.

    To leave the end of the item’s display period unspecified, turn on the No end date toggle.

Note
To add another display period for the item in the catalog, click +. If an item has multiple display periods, each must have an end date. The display period ends at the last second of the specified minute. For example, if an end time is set to 12:00, the display period runs until 12:00:59.
  1. Configure attributes using one of the following options (optional):
    1. Add attributes and their values in JSON format.
    2. Manually create attributes and their values, and link them to items.
  1. If the paid item will be used in any mechanics with a random reward (e.g., loot boxes or gacha), enable the Mark as paid randomized reward toggle.
Note
This parameter may be required for games distributed in countries with legal restrictions on such mechanics.
  1. Click Create.

  2. In the window that opens, select the item status and click Continue.

The created item will appear in the All items section.
