‘Amazon Announces Virtual Currency For Kindle Fire’ – ‘ReadWrite’
The latest post on ‘ReadWrite’ is titled “Amazon Announces Virtual Currency For Kindle Fire”.
Dan Rowinski says, “Amazon is getting into the virtual currency game. The e-commerce giant today announced a new program called Amazon Coins that Kindle Fire owners will be able to use to purchase apps, games and in-app purchases in the Amazon Appstore for Android. Amazon Coins will go live in May in the United States.
Virtual currency is nothing new in the app world. Many game developers already employ it within their own apps to make in-app purchases and upgrade to new features. Facebook also employs its own virtual currency, Facebook Credits, which can be used in apps (like buying new features in a Farmville-style game) or other features on the social platform”.
