You can now track your previous payouts broken down daily, alongside the monthly breakdown that was already available, allowing for more precise tracking of changes over time.
Note: Payout estimates are not guaranteed and are subject to change.

External link →Coins and terms like “AFK” and “XP” are being used in island thumbnails, titles, and other metadata to mislead players into believing that they can earn or unlock an impossibly high amount of XP. Spoilers, they don’t.
Our rules (1.13) prohibit using misleading content like this in your metadata. You have until February 4 to remove any misleading content like this, including references to AFK, XP, Coin farm, Coin slide or images of Fortnite coins (or similar coins). We will be removing this content from our ecosystem and creators will receive escalating penalties – including impacts to monetization, island removal, and account suspension.
