🚗FiveM Best Practices for Packages

FiveM is on of the biggest platforms that Tebex monetizes and still has plenty of room to grow based on what we've seen over the last few years. This article covers the basics of said platform.

Game Server Packages 📦

Visual Appeal Matters 👀

• First Impressions: The package image is often the first thing a user notices. Use high-quality, visually engaging images that reflect the theme of the package.

• Consistency: Maintain a consistent style across all images to reinforce brand identity.

• Key Elements to Include:

  • A clear title of the package.

  • Relevant graphics (e.g., vehicles, skins, or icons representing scripts or mods).

    • Don’t take pictures of items at night, if possible.

  • Your server’s logo for brand recognition.

  • Use contrasting colours to ensure the text is readable.

Tips:

• Preview Videos: Include short preview videos (YouTube/TikTok/Instagram) or GIFs alongside static images. You can use this to grow your socials outside Tebex and use it as media to promote your brand.

• Creating an easily editable template on platforms like Figma or Photoshop will help you maintain a sense of uniformity and consistency in your product library.

2. Mods/Scripts Packages ⚙️

Showcasing Mods/Scripts ✨

• Product Showcase Videos:

  • Create videos showcasing the features and performance of the mod/script in a live server environment.

  • Keep videos concise (30-90 seconds), demonstrating key features.

  • Example structure:

  • Start with an introduction (name and purpose of the script).

  • Highlight unique features.

  • Show it in action (e.g., a vehicle mod driving or a roleplay script being used).

• Tutorial Videos:

  • Provide separate in-depth tutorials (Will vary on the complexity of the product).

  • Example structure:

    • Step-by-step installation guide.

      • Configuration/customization tips.

      • Troubleshooting common issues.

• Host videos on platforms like YouTube and embed them into your product page.

3. Descriptions 📝

Crafting Effective Descriptions

• Headline: Start with a compelling headline that summarizes the package’s key benefit.

  • Example: “Mechanic Script 2.0 – Vehicles made simply fun!”

• Features:

  • Use bullet points to list major features (e.g., “Customizable patrol routes, real-time alerts, etc.”).

• Value Proposition:

  • Explain how this package improves the gameplay experience.

• Technical Details:

  • Include details like compatibility, file size, and dependencies.

Tips:

• Avoid jargon; keep it simple and clear for all users.

• Include a FAQ section addressing common queries.

• Generally, it is a really good practice to keep an up-to-date knowledge base to minimise support bogging down development or other business ventures.

4. Pricing and Package Types 💵

OneTime Packages vs Subscription Packages 📅

• One-Time Packages: These are best for standalone products that require no ongoing updates or support. They are ideal for deliverables/mods/scripts with fixed, complete value (e.g., premium currency, vehicle packs, simple scripts).

• Subscriptions: Perfect for dynamic, evolving products requiring frequent updates, support, or exclusive content. Encourage long-term engagement and provide stable recurring revenue. Use tiers to create separate price points to make your collection as accessible as possible. (e.g., $10/month for basic, $30/month for premium).

When to Choose Each 💭

• One-Time: If the product is static and maintenance-free.

• Subscription: If the product evolves, needs regular updates, or offers ongoing perks like VIP access or new monthly content.

Average Transaction Values 🛒

• This will depend on your specific user base - be sure to use your Avg Transaction value found in your “Statistics” -> “Payments” Panel on your Dashboard: https://creator.tebex.io/statistics

• Creating different price points is extremely important as some customers have more spending power than others - make your products as accessible as possible for as many people as possible!

Regional Pricing 🌍

• Localized Adjustments:

  • Use geolocation tools to offer region-specific pricing.

  • Example: A package priced at $20 in the US might be $15 in developing markets.

• Currency Display:

  • Show prices in local currencies to improve user trust and reduce cart abandonment.

Sales and Coupons 💲

• Discount Strategies:

  • Flash Sales: Offer 25%-30% discounts during holidays or special events.

  • Bundles: Provide discounts for purchasing multiple packages (e.g., “Buy 2, Get 15% Off”).

  • First-Time Buyers: Offer a one-time 10% discount for new customers.

• Loyalty Rewards:

  • Provide coupons for repeat buyers or subscribers.
