CPI vs. LTV

24. ©deltaDNA
Day One Retention Rates
• On average less than 40% of
players return to a free-to-play
game after just one session
• 44% have 60 – 80% of players
not returning after one session
Many games live with low retention rates and therefore poor lifetime value

● Nanobit uses A/B tests to
optimize pricing
● Created 3 test groups; reduced
price by 20%, kept prices the
same, increased price by 20%
● After less than a week could see
that increasing the price by 20%
had no negative effect on
retention
● Revenue up by at least 20 - 50%
For gaming companies, deltaDNA is our number one
tool. It has a lot more possibilities than other analytics
tools we’ve used in the past; for example A/B testing,
push notifications and engagement tools.
