The Gamepal service on Gank allows you to pay-to-play with another gamer of your choice. These gamers are known as Gamepals, and they serve as your gaming companions. If you love playing random and making new friends along the way, our Gamepal services are definitely suitable for you.
Please watch the videos on having a good profile and listing in our discord announcements channel! If you fulfill the requirements, please reach out to our staff in our community discord.
When you list a service on Gank, you are viewed by hundreds of gamers who may need the services you are providing. Gamepals can provide services such as companion gaming, coaching, or carry services.
We highly encourage users from the gaming industry to earn from their expertise. It may range from teaching someone how to set up live streams, to imparting new skills like esports shoutcasting. There is also a custom option if your services do not fall under any of our categories.
A potential customer may start by chatting with you on our platform to find out more about your service. It is up to you, as the seller, to make your pitch and close the sales. It is not as hard as you think. Gaming services are quite straightforward and self-explanatory. With our latest patch version, you can also state your availability for better scheduling.
Once the customer clicks the ‘Hire’ button in the chat, your service should start. The app currency, termed ‘Gank Gold’, is paid by the customer and is automatically converted to cash into your seller’s ‘Earnings’ wallet. After the service is completed, you can withdraw the earnings to your chosen e-wallet account. Do take note that these payment platforms may charge a fee for receiving the earnings.
We are truthful when we say that we want to cover every video game in the market. But realistically, there are too many titles and undiscovered gaming communities. We want to pace ourselves steadily to that eventual point where we can cover every single game title that has a following and community and at the same time, not overwhelm our users on the app with information.
We have a stringent verification process in place. As different game titles use different mechanics and rating systems, we are not able to list them all in this FAQ.
An example of a verification process:
We allow sellers to position themselves as Gamepals while being unverified. It is up to the buyer to determine which Gamepal he/she chooses. However, a verified badge on your profile will certainly carry more weight when compared to another unverified Gamepal.
Gaming services listed by users are meant to help others improve gameplay. We do not encourage autopiloting or botting practices which involve the take-over of player accounts during any service, be it coaching, carry or support.
Our sellers are encouraged to provide in-person assistance, in-game. We also do not take the personal data of any of our users, and we do not use/host third-party software that will disrupt gameplay.
On Gank, it is all about the hiring of another person to help you out. We strongly discourage piloting or taking over accounts as part of a seller's services. We are also committed to keeping our platform clean and secure by doing our own sweeps to deny anyone from selling any kind of TOS-breaking services on our platform.
It is not safe to hand over private information such as passwords to anyone on the platform. Gank staff will never ask for your log-in details. We depend on our users to help to report any errant users who are engaged in such errant practices i.e selling of accounts, taking over of accounts, etc. We need everyone's assistance to keep this platform clean and legitimate for all gamers.
Use our search function and enter the Gamepal’s in-game-nickname or social media handle. You can also search by games and add in more search filters to have more accurate search results.
Gank comes with an integrated text messaging, voice, and video chat function. You can connect directly with the Gamepal using our platform.
All cancellations can be done in-app with a simple click. Rescheduling of the session requires both parties to agree on the date and timing. Sessions will only start when the Gamepal accepts the order and initiates the session. Sessions can be paused and used on another agreed time by both parties.
Payment by users is held by Gank upon the transaction, and only be disbursed to the service provider after the transaction. If there should be any disputes during or after the transaction, both parties will have the option to file a complaint with the Gank administration for a fair resolution within a one-hour time frame.
After every completed session, you will be prompted to leave a text review and star rating for our Gamepals. Your reviews are very important as they help us monitor the standards of our service providers. Any service providers who fall short of being the best will naturally have lower ratings and a lesser chance of being hired.
You can sign up for events through the Gank platform. On Gank’s homepage, select the Events tab. From there you can select the event you are interested in and sign up.
You may encounter events that have an overwhelming number of participants than allowed. Do not hesitate to sign up for them if you are interested, as we might just open up more slots for you.
