1. Purpose
   This page outlines the monetization rules, procedures, and limitations for GG Networks’ DayZ server – Badlands. Our monetization system complies with Bohemia Interactive’s DayZ Server Monetization Rules and is designed to support server costs while maintaining fair gameplay for all players.

2. Compliance with Bohemia Interactive
   We strictly adhere to Bohemia Interactive’s official monetization guidelines for DayZ servers, including but not limited to:

• • No pay-to-win mechanics

  • No sale of gameplay advantages over other players

  • No exclusive access to weapons, gear, or vehicles that cannot be earned through normal gameplay

  • No priority in PvP encounters or raid protection

  • No real-money trading (RMT) of in-game items between players

3. What We Monetize
   We may offer optional, non-mandatory purchases such as:

• • Cosmetic items (clothing skins, visual-only variants)

  • Status-related perks (titles, name colors, Discord roles)

  • Queue priority

4. What We Do NOT Monetize
   To ensure fairness, we do not sell:

• • High-tier or exclusive weapons

  • Overpowered armor or gear

  • Raid immunity or base protection

  • Increased damage, health, stamina, or speed

  • Admin powers or moderation privileges

  • In-game currency that bypasses progression systems

Any item available for purchase is also obtainable through regular gameplay, unless it is purely cosmetic.

5. Use of Funds
   All monetization income is used exclusively for:

• • Server hosting and infrastructure

  • DDoS protection

  • Mod licensing and development

  • Website and community services

  • Community events and improvements

No profits are guaranteed, and all contributions are considered voluntary support for the community.

6. Refund Policy
   Due to the nature of digital goods:

• • All purchases are final

  • No refunds will be issued once an item or perk has been delivered

  • Chargebacks or fraudulent claims may result in permanent bans

If an item is not delivered correctly, players should contact staff within 7 days for resolution.

7. Changes to Monetization
   We reserve the right to:

• • Modify, remove, or rebalance monetized items

  • Adjust pricing or availability

  • Temporarily disable monetization if required by Bohemia Interactive

Major changes will be announced in advance whenever possible.

8. Player Responsibility
   By making a purchase, players acknowledge that:

• • Purchases do not grant immunity from server rules

  • Donators are held to the same or higher standard as other players

  • Abuse of monetized items may result in removal without compensation

9. Transparency and Reporting
   If you believe any monetization offering violates Bohemia Interactive’s rules, please report it to our staff immediately.
