Hello guys, this is my first post here. I have a problem and would like to ask for opinion. I play mcoc on my iPhone, but I can't set up payment methods cuz I live in a country not supported by Apple pay. So when I want to buy stuff, I log in to my android phone. Today I got the mastery bundle offer (5 bucks for mastery cores and infinity war crystal) and I quickly jumped to android to buy it. Surprise, no offer on my android phone! Even the message in my inbox announcing the offer is not there. Log in to iOS again, there it is. Anyone had something similar?

You can't get mad at Kabam, if you want it get a iPhone and Android phone
Of course you can. Every other offer is the same. Apple/Google have nothing to do with this.
I can't because there is no way for me to set up my credit card on iOS cuz my country is not on Apple Pay list, I can't add a payment method.
I don't think you understand. Normally these "exclusive offers" are sponsored by the corresponding app store. It is Apple sponsoring the offer, so it is only offered to iOS players. It is not uncommon in the mobile games arena. In fact, not only are there App Store iOS exclusive offers and Google Play Android exclusive offers, in the past there have also been device-specific offers, sponsored by those particular device manufacturers. I seem to recall one sponsored by Sony for Sony-specific devices.
If you want to never see a platform-exclusive offer again, you can try to demand that Kabam refuse to work with app stores and device manufacturers that want to sponsor exclusive offers and not take their money, and good luck with that.
.....or petition Apple and Google to work together. Best of luck.
First off, I've merged two threads together so all commenting can see our update on this. Now onto business, as many of you know, we do make different offers available to different groups of players at different times. Occasionally, these offers are made in collaboration with one of our Partners. In the Past, we've had different gifts and offers available for Google Play users, such as the one for Google's Apps & Games Against Hunger campaign. While we don't do this kind of thing often, it is always a possibility, and that means that the next one may again be exclusive to Google Play.
Thank you all for your interest in this Offer. We've passed along the feedback we've received from both our iOS and Android users to the team.
We'll keep this thread open to continue hearing your feedback, but please rememer to keep it constructive and on topic. Thanks!
You sound so crazy, Kabam has nothing to do with how the game performs on your mobile device, that's literally the phone creators. Apple makes better, faster and smoother devices that run mobile games better!!!
You mean Kabam has finally done something that players can't frame as a conspiratorial example of their greed? Makes the offer worth doing just for that alone.
If 90% of the player community hates Kabam, I'd say they are doing a pretty good job of unifying the player community, not dividing it.
@DANCFC you need to step back and take a breath. This isn't the first time there has been a iOS exculsive offer and there have been many Google play only offers as well. It goes both ways. This time it went to Apple. You wouldnt be on here if this was a Google play offer only would you?
Also to touch on optimizing Apple/android.. Never going to happen. Apple will always be optimized better because it's all the same. Andriod OS and phone specs run a gambit of different levels of specs. Theres no way to optimize to iOS and if they did, theyd have to discontinue support for phones a year old and older all the time.
