In an increasingly competitive global mobile games market, building a loyal - and valuable user base has never been more valuable. User Acquisition (UA) can be an expensive option when compared to successfully retaining those players who have already engaged and spent money in your game.

But how can developers and publishers - across all genres - reduce churn, retain players and retarget those likely to drive revenue and increase lifetime value?

These were among the questions asked in the recent expert webinar from the team at app marketing experts Adikteev.
