GammaCheck: Gaming Session Cost Tracker
Automatically tracks in-game spending (battle passes, cosmetics, loot boxes) and alerts players when monthly gaming expenses exceed their budget threshold.
The Problem
Mobile and F2P gamers routinely lose track of how much they're spending on cosmetics, battle passes, and loot boxes because purchases feel frictionless and happen across multiple games. Players often discover they've spent $200+ monthly only after seeing their credit card bill, with no visibility into which games or purchases caused the overspend.
Target Audience
Mobile gamers aged 16-35 who play 3+ F2P titles monthly; parents monitoring teen gaming expenses; competitive players who buy cosmetics/battle passes regularly.
Why Now?
Apple's App Tracking Transparency and stricter spending controls have made players more aware of costs; Gen Z is increasingly budget-conscious post-inflation; gaming subscriptions (Game Pass, PlayStation Plus) now make overspending more visible.
What's Missing
Gaming platforms intentionally obscure spending to drive impulse purchases, and existing parental controls focus on access rather than awareness. No app aggregates and alerts on cross-game spending patterns.
