• The video and advertising content is completely provided and monitored by the Ad Agencies themselves, and not by Big Viking Games. Any views presented through the advertised content may not reflect our own, and if you have any concerns with the content, please let us know by using the Help ticket above the game.
• The number of Coins you receive increases with your Player Level, and may be different for each ad, even if you watch the same ad twice.
• The content of these ads is determined by the agencies, and will change fairly frequently.
• If some Ads may not be working properly, it may be an issue with the Ad Agency side of things, and we'll do our best to let them know about the issues.
• The maximum of five per day may be lower, depending on which ads are available to you in your region.
• We have heard some reports of the Coins being awarded a little while after watching the video (often a number of minutes, or after a refresh). This might be the case for you if you have watched a video without receiving a reward.

Seen a few questions around security and so on, so I'd like to take the time to address that. Safe and Secure is our #1 YoValue, and we would never put anything in the game that would pose any threat to your account or your personal details.

1. We're only allowing companies to provide videos. Ad networks have all kinds of survey signups, game downloads, free trial offers etc that they can provide, but only providing videos ensures there are no security concerns.
2. We have only partnered with reputable companies that we know have been doing this for a long time, and the majority of them we have worked with in the past.
3. There are essentially no personal details provided to these companies. All they know is your YoWorld-specific Facebook ID number, which cannot be used to identify you.
4. If a non-video does slip in, we'll contact the company in question and ask them to remove it. We'll also do this if there's any non-family friendly content such as alcohol, violence etc.
5. We can turn off the ads at any time, as a safety measure.
6. Ads are entirely voluntary, they're not forced on anyone at any time, players simply need not click the icon if they're not interested.

Video ads will provide us with a small amount of revenue to help pay for ongoing server and development costs. They're a great idea because they allow players who are unable to support us to take part and also earn some coins too.

As for the questions around why they don't pay YoCash, simply put, companies are not willing to pay very much for a video watch. Usually less than 1 cent. We would be able to make more revenue if we added things like surveys and free trials etc, but with your game experience being super important to us, along with our safe and secure value, we felt this was the best way to introduce sponsored content.
