Does anyone know if I’m allowed to put PayPal payments in my Epic Game published game (without going through the Epic Games payment process), and charge players for certain features?
You could try implementing payments through the REST API.
Yea, that’s what I was planning to do.
I just wanted to know if I was allowed to do this and bypass the Epic Games payment process.
In other words, will Epic Games have a problem with me putting my own payment system within the game?
I doubt it would be a problem. The revenue from it would also have to be accounted for in the 5% royalty though. Anything with a direct link to the game (even patreon payments) is counted if the payment has a direct link to purchases in the game directly or indirectly (including early access etc).
In short if the payment is linked to anything to do with the engine it still needs to be reported.
Aha. So I would need to report it through some form I presume…Would need to see how this is done.
Ok thanks!
