[subsection]Promotional Discounts[/subsection] When you run a discount on your game, a notification e-mail or mobile push notification will be issued to users with your game on their wishlist, as long as you meet the following criteria: [list] [*]Any type of discount at or above 20%, whether a curated feature spot, a weeklong deal, or a custom configured discount [*]Discounts must, at a minimum, affect the lowest priced package for a game. For example, if you have a $20 Regular and $30 Deluxe package for your game, just discounting the the Deluxe package would not trigger wishlist notification e-mails, you would also need to discount the Regular package. [*]Discounts must be over 8 hours in duration [*]Note: if an email is held up for over a week for whatever reason, we will stop trying to send that email. …

Maybe those players are waiting until they have time to play, or for a holiday or birthday, or maybe they’re waiting for a discount at a price that works better for their buying habits or budget. Because everyone wishlists for different reasons, there’s no formula to accurately predict sales from wishlists. Nevertheless, wishlists are valuable, and are the result of other work you are doing to grow the potential audience for your game at release and beyond. …

You can select an exact date, or release month, or present it as a release window (for example, January 1st to March 30th). When you are ready, click "Create". [docimg=SeasonPassNew05.JPG]SeasonPassNew05.JPG[/docimg] Now, you should see the new content release on your Roadmap. …

Unlike other discounts, these do not have 30-day discount cooldowns, [i]and[/i] they're exempt from the 30-day discount cooldowns of other discounts. This means a product can schedule a discount within 30 days of a Seasonal Sale - either before or after - and still join the Seasonal Sale. …

Yes, you may run a launch discount when transitioning from Early Access to fully released, unless your Early Access began less than 30 days or you increased your product's base price within the last 30 days. [*][b]Q: My 30-Day Price Increase Cooldown or 30-day Release Cooldown ends [i]during[/i] a Seasonal Sale. …

However, if your 30-day Price Introduction Cooldown ends during a seasonal sale, you could choose to join the sale already in progress by manually entering a custom discount once your cooldown ends (i.e., 30 days or more from your release date or price increase). In any case, there are always future opportunities to put your game on discount, so you shouldn't feel pressured to change your release date or pricing updates for the sake of a seasonal sale event. [h4]Q: I increased my price in the last 30 days for one or more currencies, can I discount?[/h4] A: No, products cannot be discounted for 30 days after any currency price increase, within 30 days of release or 30 days from when the launch discount ends. …

Note that the recent community announcement needs to have been posted within the last 30 days. [*] When you get everything entered in, you're ready to start. [*] Your product will be added to a pool of titles that are opted in, and randomly selected to appear each time a customer views the home page until your visibility round ends. [*] Each visibility round will appear on the front page of Steam for up to 30 days. …

Additional rounds may be granted to products that are selling well. [subsection]Runs for up to 30 days[/subsection] A visibility round can run for up to 30 days from the date it started or cap out at 1M impressions on the homepage, whichever comes first. …

You'll need to request a price change a couple days ahead of your Early Access transition to ensure that it is approved prior to your transition. Note that it's not possible to discount your product for 30 days after any price increase. If you increase your price within 30 days of your transition from Early Access to fully released, your launch discount will not apply. …

[/list] [b]Q: Can I participate in sale events if my product recently launched?[/b] A: Generally, you cannot submit a discount within 30 days of release or 30 days from when the launch discount ends. However, you can submit a launch discount to take effect when your game first releases. …

Some developers choose to also participate in paid marketing to increase awareness and drive traffic to their Steam store page, but it’s not required, and really depends on the budget and resources you have set aside for marketing your game. Generally, the most important thing for Free to Play games is driving as many new players to try out the game as possible, and hopefully holding onto those players over time by making the game as fun and rewarding as possible. …
