Personalization

Personalization allows you to specify the conditions of a promotion that applies to certain authorized users. When setting up a promotion, you can define which user attributes are used as a condition(s). For example, players with a certain level or number of transactions can receive a discount when purchasing virtual items.

Setting up a personalization is available with any authentication type: through User ID or Xsolla Login.

User flow

1. The user goes to the landing page with personalized content.

2. The user clicks Log in and authorizes through User ID or Xsolla Login.
3. User sees additional personal offers.

4. The user clicks Buy now and pays for items.

Set up attributes

The sequence of attribute settings depends on the user authorization option used in the Web Shop.
