Report: 54% of 'Whales' Have Never Spent More Than $50 on a Single Purchase

deltaDNA has released new insights into the spending behaviors of "whales" in free-to-play mobile games.

Analytics and marketing platform deltaDNA released new insights into the spending habits of “whales” in free-to-play mobile games. These whales are the players who generate the most revenue in free-to-play games, and they account for 5 percent of spenders and fewer than 0.1 percent of all players.

deltaDNA analyzed the spending habits of 1 million whales who have spent more than $100 in free-to-play mobile games since July 2015, and it found that the “typical” transaction value across all in-app purchases made by whales was $20.
