Buying Packs on iOS vs. Facebook
 
This is something I've known forever, but it's worth mentioning now since I actually have a reason to spend a lot of money gralats for my friends.

What is the actual reason that iOS users get more gralats for their dollar? On FB, the max we can buy at a time is 10k and that is $4.99. On iOS, 27.5k is what you get for $9.99. It kind of sucks for FB users.

Is it because Facebook takes out some higher fee than iTunes does, or? While I've got attention on this thread, what is the pricing for Android?

Ok, lets ask an un-official forums about it. Lets ask a forums that doesn't even have Stefan, the creator registered on. I'm sure someone will give you a legitimate answer to your question on this forums (!)

The "Gralat Pack 3" wasn't added until after the FB client was added. So I guess they forgot to make that update to FB

Totally unrelated but I have a question too. Are the gralat prices different for each country? I swear I've heard that in some countries it's only 99 cents for gralat pack one. It's the same for every other country except NZ. It's like $2.50 for gralat pack one.... or something. This is weird because we're using iTunes as the currency and so the exchange rate shouldn't have an effect on the prices.

Anyway, if you really hate buying gralats in small amounts then you can always buy your gralats from the skyrider website. It's a little bit expensive but it will save you the hassle of clicking lol.

Nah, it's not even that, it's more the fact that FB users get 3250 less gralats per each $5 they spend. I don't care about having to click hella times, but it sucks to be shortchanged. If I was to spend $50 on Facebook, I'd get 100,000 gralats. If I was to spend $50 through an iOS device, I'd get 137,500.

A friend informed me that Android users also get the same rates as iOS.

Yeah, here in the States, Gralat pack 1 is 99c and gralat pack 2 is 2.99$

You're obviously not going to get any legitimate answers, so might as well close this thread.

If you do want an answer, why not email Stefan, he might actually know!

Facebook retains 30% and developers get 70% of all revenue earned through Credits.
I don't know about Apple but I believe they're somewhere between 10-15%.

Source? This is why Thallen should ask the owner of Graalonline, because you can never know if its a legitimate answer. You never know if someone is fibbing or not
