Tracking Your Fortnite Spending: A Comprehensive Guide
Fortnite is free, but its enticing skins can lead to unexpected spending. This guide outlines two methods to monitor your Fortnite expenditures, ensuring you stay informed about your in-game purchases.
Method 1: Reviewing Your Epic Games Store Account
All V-Buck purchases are recorded in your Epic Games Store account, regardless of platform or payment method. Here's how to check:
- Visit the Epic Games Store website and log in.
- Click your username (top right).
- Select "Account," then "Transactions."
- On the "Purchase" tab, scroll through your transactions, clicking "Show More" as needed.
- Identify entries showing "5,000 V-Bucks" (or similar) with their corresponding dollar amount. Note these values.
- Sum the V-Bucks and currency amounts separately using a calculator to determine your total spending.
Important Considerations:
- Free Epic Games Store games will appear as transactions; scroll past these.
- Redeemed V-Bucks cards might not display a dollar amount.
Method 2: Utilizing Fortnite.gg
As highlighted by Dot Esports, Fortnite.gg offers a manual tracking option:
- Go to Fortnite.gg and log in (or create an account).
- Navigate to "My Locker."
- Manually add each purchased outfit and item from your Cosmetics section (click an item, then "+ Locker"). You can also search for items.
- Your locker will display the total V-Buck value of your acquired cosmetics.
- Use a V-Buck to dollar converter (many are available online) to estimate your total spending.
While neither method is perfectly automated, they provide effective ways to track your Fortnite spending.
Fortnite is available on various platforms, including Meta Quest 2 and 3.
