Create your AGS store

Last updated on October 24, 2024

Overview

This article walks you through how to create your AccelByte Gaming Services (AGS) store in your publisher or game namespace.

Your AGS store can exist in both publisher namespaces and game namespaces. We recommend that game-specific items be configured in a game namespace since a publisher namespace is usually used as a publisher storefront for your game, and downloadable content (DLC) distribution. A publisher namespace is more useful if you are setting up an AGS Player Portal and launching your games using our Launcher, since you can manage sales of your games in them.

note

You also have the option to integrate a third-party store platform with your AGS store. To learn more, see Manage third-party store integrations.
