akenoyuki.8210 Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Hi,Is there any plan to making API about Currently Sell Item & Promotional Item on Gemstore?I think this will benefit ANet too on the gem sale, yes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elfo Bianco.3786 Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 I'd like that endpoint too and I would say that only ANet will benefit from it, because apps that share information about Gemstore could increase the sales and active players on the game.

Nightlark.4029 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 If they add gem store website that can be opened in a regular browser, then they can launch a referral program; once other people can profit, those links to buy gem store items will spread all over the place and ANet will be getting tons of sales (or not, and reddit will be spammed with referral links).

By law in several countries you can't sell digital/not real items with real money, so you could have a referral program only for selling Gems. In other cases someone could buy some items with in-game Golds, that would mean ANet pays you without any real earning, it's impossible :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightlark.4029 Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 That's interesting, didn't know about that restriction on selling digital goods with real money. How about an in-game gold referral bonus? Then ANet doesn't need to figure out anything complex for real money payouts. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawton Campbell.8517 Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Probably never going to be a gemstore endpoint. There's a lot of fiddly bits w.r.t packages and sales and stuff -- it would be pretty difficult to make the API return correct data and I don't have that much time these days to work on API stuff.
