A survey between December 2023 and January 2024 found that 5 percent of mobile gaming spenders in the United States and Canada made more than 10 in-game purchases per month. However, high-value spenders (who spent more than 100 U.S. dollars per month) were more likely to do so, as 10 percent of responding high-value spenders stated that they made as many monthly in-game purchases. About a third of average spenders only made in-app purchases every few months.
