Updates

Hello friends, users, players, collectors and more. Today we have pushed an update to our drop system allowing a number of different selections with drops.

A couple of new additions to our drop programming:

Multi-win drops

Limited-by-entries drops

Multiple drops on the same day (ie. premium and free)

The latter we have been working really hard on, because we realised that having premium drops somedays took away from our inherent core principles of one free card drop daily. So now, no matter what is dropping, you can guarantee one of them will be free to enter.

We have also pushed some bug fixes and smaller changes to the UI.

I wanted to take this time to thank everyone who has signed up, entered, played and helped report issues so far. You are the people that make the platform what it is. This months GoCardless take total was £204.10, which includes premium entries and shipping costs. When we take shipping costs of around £54 off that amount is considerably lower at around £150. In total, we spent around £40 on Hosting and Database costs this month. We also have given away over £520 in value. Around £110 revenue returns. When we then factor in the development costs it took to push out over 167 updates to the platform since we launched on 14th March, it's a considerable loss of nearly £400. We made a loss on every single premium drop.

But one thing remains, we started this project not knowing where it was going to take us. Simply with one mission - to give back to the community of Barrow and the more wider local areas. That we did. We created from scratch an MVP, and took it through to proof of concept. The fact that even took home any revenue this month is huge success for us.

We look forward to pushing more fun and antics this month, don't forget to like the Facebook page, sign up to the newsletter, and get in touch with us via Support in your dashboard, or by WhatsApping us directly (link on Facebook).

Thanks again, gotta catch 'em all!

Best,

Ben
