PUBG Creator Appreciation Program Beta Arrives in Season 7

PUBG Corp introduced the Creator Appreciation Program in Season 7, released to live PC servers Wednesday, allowing players to support their favorite influencers with in-game purchases.

The program, beginning as a beta, will enable influencers listed as PUBG Partners to send a portion of any in-game purchase to the creator of their choosing by inputting that creator's unique tag in their own PUBG account page.

Season 7 is now live on PC servers!

Hop a train, tour the updated Vikendi countryside, and stop by Dinoland for your Lindh Chicken Dinner.

A total of 54 creators can be supported using the program as of Wednesday, limited to Partners in North America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa for the duration of the beta. PUBG Corp plans to introduce more as they opt in, and as the program expands past beta testing. The full list of creators and tags included appears at the bottom of this article.

The program will work retroactively on all purchases made up to 14 days after the launch of Season 7, allowing players to input a creator code after the fact to ensure that creator still receives payment.

PUBG Corp did not share the exact revenue split in each purchase, saying only that "a percentage" of each purchase will go to the creator.

The Creator Appreciation Program is similar to a system Epic Games implemented in Fortnite in October 2018 that allowed influencers to earn $5 for every 10,000 V-Bucks spent by players who chose to support them. That amounts to about 5% of revenue from purchases made.
