Track Your Fortnite Spending: A Comprehensive Guide
Curious about your Fortnite spending? This guide shows you how to check your total expenditure on V-Bucks, helping you stay on top of your in-game purchases. Uncontrolled spending can quickly add up, so regular monitoring is crucial to avoid unexpected surprises. Think of the woman in the NotAlwaysRight story who unknowingly spent nearly $800 on Candy Crush – don't let that happen to you!
Two methods are available: checking your Epic Games Store account and using Fortnite.gg. Let's explore both.
Method 1: Your Epic Games Store Account
All V-Buck purchases, regardless of platform or payment method, are recorded in your Epic Games Store account. Here’s how to access this information:
- Visit the Epic Games Store website and log in.
- Click your username (top right corner).
- Select "Account," then "Transactions."
- On the "Purchase" tab, scroll through your transaction history, clicking "Show More" as needed.
- Identify entries showing "5,000 V-Bucks" (or similar amounts) and their corresponding dollar values.
- Manually record the V-Buck and currency amounts. Use a calculator to determine your total V-Buck and total currency spent.
Important Considerations: Free Epic Games Store games will appear in your transaction history. V-Bucks card redemptions may not display a dollar amount.
Method 2: Using Fortnite.gg
As highlighted by Dot Esports, Fortnite.gg offers a way to track your spending, though it requires manual input:
- Go to Fortnite.gg and log in (or create an account).
- Navigate to "My Locker."
- Manually add each purchased outfit and cosmetic item by selecting it and clicking "+ Locker." You can use the search function to find items.
- Your locker will then display the total V-Buck value of your collected items.
- Use a V-Buck to dollar converter (many are readily available online) to estimate your total spending.
While neither method is perfectly automated, they provide effective ways to monitor your Fortnite spending. Choose the method that best suits your preference.
Fortnite is available on various platforms, including Meta Quest 2 and 3.
