World of Tanks regularly pleases with pleasant bonuses both its loyal fans and those who are just about to join the team of tankers. Promotions in the World of Tanks game happen almost every day. These can be large events that are timed to coincide with important events, or rather minor ones. But even such small bonuses can be used wisely - a trifle, but still nice.
Thus, the developers from Wargaming keep the audience in the game. Promotions in Tanki always attract those who like to get something “for free”, so during them the online traffic is off the charts.
Promotions in the World of Tanks are interesting and important topic for conversation, and therefore we will give them due attention.
About World of Tanks promotions
Why are promotions held in World of Tanks? The answer is simple. First of all, they help attract new players and retain old ones. It is on promotional days that players can afford to make more purchases, win a valuable tank or just a few days of a premium account.
You can also get premium products in another way - by purchasing them for real money. But why buy if you can play on the “right days”?
Where can I find out the promotion schedule?
Where can I find out about upcoming promotions in World of Tanks? There are two ways.
Events calendar
One of them is the “Event Calendar” on the official website of the game - worldoftanks.ru/ru/content/eventcalendar/. All current events and those that will begin very soon are shown here.
The calendar is a kind of schedule of promotions in World of Tanks and, using it, you can always get to the right days. With the help of the calendar, you can always find out in a timely manner about upcoming World of Tanks promotions, when there is an opportunity to grab something valuable, and for free.
Personal account
You can find out when the next WOT promotions will be in the game itself.
How to do it:
- We go into the hangar.
- There is a special icon in the upper left corner of the screen - “ Combat missions and shares."
- We click, and then a window pops up in front of us with all the active and upcoming discounts and promotions in World of Tanks.
In this window you can also see the process of completing a particular combat mission in order to receive a well-deserved prize for it.
Types of shares
The promotions in WOT are very diverse, they all differ from each other, and therefore it is reasonable to talk about their varieties.
Premium store special offers
They represent an opportunity to buy special sets or just tanks in the premium store at a good discount. For low levels it is 50% of the base cost, for slightly higher-end tanks it is 30%, and for premium Tier VIII tanks it is 15%.
Such promotions can be timed to coincide with special events, such as a company’s birthday, etc.
Combat missions
Combat missions should be understood as stage-by-stage game tasks for which the player receives a reward.
As a rule, combat missions have an expiration date. For completing them you can earn credits, experience, equipment, reserves and even premium equipment.
Discounts
There is no need to explain what discounts are. Thanks to them, tanks, equipment, gold, reserves and other useful gaming content you can buy at a lower cost, for example, for 50% of the base price.
Events
Events are special promotions during which all players, for example, are given the task of “killing” a person from the WG team. For destroying such a player, you earn gold and other valuable awards.
Examples of promotions
To help players better understand what events are held in the game, we offer examples of tank promotions in World of Tanks that you can participate in regularly or periodically.
Seasonal promotions
Seasonal promotions are held every year, for example, in new year holidays, or for Victory Day. For participating in such promotions, players receive premium accounts and special offers from the premium store. On promotional days, you can often find great discounts on equipment at WOT.
Invite a friend
“Invite a Friend” is a special program to attract new players, which also rewards the mentor of a new player with a Tier VIII auction tank.
Combat missions
Military actions have already been discussed above. It should only be added that in the future the developers promise to significantly expand and diversify them, meeting the players halfway. An example of such a task is to deal 250 thousand damage in a month on vehicles of each nation. This promotion actually took place not long ago, and the prize was a Tier VIII premium tank.
Random promotions
Random events are held in honor of historical events in which tanks participated. These could be, for example, famous tank battles and military operations of World War II.
If you are not only a keen tanker, but also a history buff, then it won’t be difficult for you to even predict future World of Tanks bonus events dedicated to significant events.
One-time promotions
One-time promotions are the most generous, as they are timed to coincide with special events, such as “15 years of Wargaming” or “100 years of tanks”.
Such bonuses will delight any participant, even the least active one. Discounts in World of Tanks during one-time events will allow you to buy even X-tier tanks for half their cost.
Cashback
Cards with a cashback function have already become firmly established in our lives. For those who are not yet in the know: cashback is the return of a certain percentage of the amount spent on purchases. Just keep in mind that in Tanks, money is returned not in rubles to your card, but in gold - to the game balance.
On the website wgcashback.ru you can order a cashback card linked to WOT. With its help, you can receive “free” gold in the game by paying for purchases in the following services:
- AliExpress;
- MediaMarkt;
- Lamoda and others - more than 50 stores in total.
Using cashback, you don’t even have to wait for discounts in World of Tanks, because by making the necessary everyday purchases, you will thereby accumulate gold on your balance in WOT.
Video
You can learn more about the cashback card in our video.
