b10b Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 It looked interesting, we investigated late 2019, including conversations with KaiOS HQ, but chose not to proceed. At the time the only monetisation was in-game-ads, there was no indication of the eCPM (the territories are likely low value?), the KaiStore features were under-evolved (so discoverability would be a crap-shoot?), the hardware was bespoke requiring proprietary APIs and implementations for best effect, and HQ were unwilling to offset any risk - not even supply a $100 device. Unlike the underlying OS and telco proposition, the games business model was entirely unoriginal in its approach and failed to impress. In summary adding a game to KaiStore represented as much work as publishing to iOS, Android, or Facebook but without the apparent market benefits, and arguably at a higher cost (because we didn't already own a proprietary device). Our conclusion was it's best to rely on publishing partners to pursue emerging markets like KaiOS (rather than pursue them directly) - being FirefoxOS / HTML5 this is easy for them to achieve. Or just publish to web where anyone on any device or OS can play already! Things may have changed since, and your mileage may vary so I'd recommend keeping an open mind nontheless. Ultimately it depends on how you value your time and what alternatives you have available. Good luck! plicatibu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

totor Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Hi Justine and welcome a few questions : what kind of ecpm and traffic can we expect from Kaios, what is the target main audience (age), where can we get a Kaios device (in France) ?
