What does the subscription saving rate represent?

It represents how much your in-game spending drops because of subscription perks (like bonus currency or items). For example, if perks cut your spending by 50%, enter 50%.

When is a subscription worth it?

When you play daily and make frequent in-game purchases, subscription perks add more value. If you play occasionally and spend little, free-to-play is usually cheaper.

Subscription vs F2P Cost Comparison

Compare the total monthly cost of a game subscription against free-to-play spending to decide which option gives you better value. Enter the subscription fee, your typical F2P spending, and how much the subscription perks reduce your in-game purchases to see the real cost difference. Play hours let you compare the cost per hour of entertainment.

How It Works

Sub Total = Sub Fee + F2P Spending × (1 − Saving Rate)
F2P Total = F2P Spending as-is
Cost per Hour = Monthly Total ÷ Monthly Play Hours
