Activating promos

Add a promo to your game and activate it on the Promos tab in the Yandex Games Console.

All promos undergo moderation. To pass, follow our recommendations.

Enabling promos in the Games Console

  1. Add a promo to your game and upload the game to the Games Console.

  2. Submit the game for moderation and wait for it to complete. While the game is under moderation, you will not be able to make any changes to it. This applies to all the points related to moderation.

    Note

    If your game was under moderation more than 100 days ago, you'll see a warning saying that the requirements may have changed. To check if the game meets the requirements, cancel the submission for moderation.

    You can see the results in the Games Console:

    • If moderation is passed, the Activated option will be enabled. The promo soon becomes available to users in the Discounts and promotions section of the Yandex Games catalog.
    • Otherwise, the Activated option remains disabled. A notification is sent to the email address saved in Yandex ID containing a detailed description of the reasons for rejection. The promo won't be available in the Discounts and promotions section of the Yandex Games catalog.
  6. When your promo ends, add your game with the disabled promo to the Games Console, then submit it for moderation again.
