Offer Systems for LTV Maximization

In this article, we’ll talk about how a well-designed offer system drives LTV growth — and why it’s never about a single lever. ARPU growth comes from multiple sources: Conversion, Repeat Purchases, Average Transaction Value, Demand, etc

But the goal is not just to sell. A good offer system: helps players overcome friction and supports progress at critical moments

Common Myths We’ll Break

  • More offers = better performance

  • Cheaper offers = best conversion strategy

  • Players buy only emotionally / only rationally

These assumptions often lead to overcomplicated, unbalanced systems. We’ll show why they don’t always work, how to avoid these traps, and what actually scales.
