What this engagement delivers

Most studios sense their monetization is underperforming. Revenue is flat despite content updates, events are running, payers exist — but the numbers aren’t moving. The problem isn’t effort. It’s that there’s no framework for diagnosing exactly which levers are broken, how broken they are, and in what order to fix them.

The Monetization Audit provides that framework. Every revenue dimension is scored against 50+ top-grossing titles in your genre. The Opportunity Index tells you which gaps have the highest revenue delta. The experiment roadmap tells you what to build first, second, and third — in a format your team can act on without additional translation.

The output is a scored, ranked picture of your live economy with a clear path to improving it. Your team stops debating priorities and starts running experiments in order.

How the audit works

From first contact to full deliverable in 10 business days.

1
Step 1

Teardown call

A free 30-minute session where LootRate runs your game through the scorecard live. You get 2–3 specific revenue gaps and the Opportunity Index on the call. No prep required. This call also scopes the full audit if you decide to proceed.

2
Step 2

Access and intake

After engagement confirmation, you share store screenshots, economy documentation, and key metrics (DAU, payer conversion rate, ARPPU). A mutual NDA is executed before any proprietary data is shared. Audit clock starts on day one of access.

3
Step 3

14-dimension scoring

Each dimension is scored 0–5 against 50+ top-grossing titles in your genre. Scores reflect your current state relative to what category leaders are doing. Finding annotations explain the gap and the direction of improvement.

4
Step 4

Opportunity Index + revenue model

Category scores are weighted and combined into an Opportunity Index. A revenue delta model projects the monthly lift range for each gap, calibrated against your game's current metrics. This is what tells you where to spend your engineering time first.

5
Step 5

Experiment roadmap delivery

A prioritized backlog of 15–20 experiment briefs, each covering hypothesis, variant description, success metric, minimum detectable effect, and implementation notes. Delivered in a format your product lead or engineering team can act on directly, with no translation needed.

Full deliverables

  • Full 14-dimension scored assessment with finding annotations
  • Opportunity Index with revenue delta model across all scored dimensions
  • Competitive benchmark comparison (50+ top-grossing titles in your genre)
  • Prioritized experiment roadmap — 15–20 briefs, each dev-ready
  • Web monetization gap analysis (Platform Fee Strategy dimension)
  • Teardown call recording and scorecard walkthrough (async)

What the experiment roadmap looks like

The roadmap is 15–20 prioritized experiment briefs. Each is written to hand directly to your product lead or engineering team. Below is a representative sample — the format and structure every brief follows. Actual experiments are derived from your game’s specific scorecard gaps.

P1First-Purchase Conversion
Low — store UI + offer config only
Hypothesis · A dedicated first-purchase screen with a +50% bonus currency offer, shown at the first currency shortage moment, will increase payer conversion rate.
Success metric · Payer conversion rate (D1–D7)
P1Pricing Architecture
Low — pricing config only
Hypothesis · Adding a $49.99 decoy tier between the $19.99 and $99.99 packs will increase average transaction value by shifting buyers toward the mid-tier.
Success metric · Average transaction value (ATV)
P2Event Monetization
Medium — requires art asset + offer config
Hypothesis · Introducing a time-limited bundle tied to the current event theme (matching visual, named after the event) will increase revenue per event window vs. evergreen bundles.
Success metric · Revenue per event window
P2Web Store Presence
High — requires web store build
Hypothesis · A minimum viable web store (5 SKUs, +20% bonus currency, in-app routing banner) will migrate 15–20% of high-value purchases off-platform, recovering net margin without acquiring new players.
Success metric · Web revenue share; net margin improvement

Each brief in the full roadmap also includes minimum detectable effect, required sample size, and implementation notes specific to your game.

What this is not

The audit is a diagnostic and strategy deliverable. Your team implements. If you need LootRate to convert findings into implementation briefs, that’s the Infrastructure Sprint.

  • Engineering or development work — your team implements
  • Ongoing experiment management after delivery
  • Art direction or UI design asset creation
  • Platform negotiation or app store optimization
