What if I have several channels on different platforms?

If you create game-related content on two or more platforms, you can receive an additional bonus in the form of in-game valuables. The views of all your channels on different platforms will be added together in the Program statistics.

Please note: you will have to choose one main channel. We will check up on it regularly in order to make sure that you meet all the requirements for participating in the Program.

How does the level distribution system work?

To begin with, every Program participant undergoes a one-month probation period, during which the participant is considered a Jomsviking (level 1 content creator). That is necessary in order for all the participants to get acquainted with their coordinator and the other participants, as well as to learn all the rules and features of the Program.

After the probation period is over, the participant is assigned a level that corresponds to the relevant metrics, according to the tables presented above. Let's say that you host two streams and create three short video clips per month, with no fewer than 4,000 views in total for all of them, and your channel has 1,100 subscribers. In this case, you become a Berserker (level 2 content creator), and you will receive a one-time reward of 200M Gold.

If after a month your channel still meets the necessary criteria, this Berserker level will become officially permanent, and you will start receiving the corresponding monthly reward. Your further development within the Program depends solely on you and your metrics.

Which topics can I cover in my videos?

We appreciate your love for Vikings: War of Clans and respect your personal style. You choose what you do: stream a Place of Power Onslaught, discuss the game's mechanics and visuals with your subscribers, create useful guides and reviews, or just cover the latest events in the game. The format and presentation of content are up to you.

How do I apply?

To participate in the Program, you need to fill in a special form. We will review your application and contact you by email if your content meets the Program requirements. Note: only individuals who have reached the age of 18 can participate in the Program.

By sending your application, you confirm that you have carefully read and agreed to the terms of participation in the Program, and that you also agree with all the information displayed on this page. The administrators reserve the right to make decisions about participants' joining of the Program, to change the Program rules and time period, and to take final decisions in the event of any disputes connected with the Program.

What other rules apply to Program participants?

All participants must respect others and be decent, honest, and polite.

Participants mustn't violate the Plarium Terms of Use, encourage others to violate them, or take part in scams.

Participants must make sure that their streams don't show or contain the following:

  • Violence, physical or verbal abuse, or slander
  • Drugs or banned products, alcohol, or tobacco products
  • Any form of discrimination
  • Erotic or pornographic content
  • Disclosure of other people's personal data
  • Harm to or harassment of others
