Just for this Friday, for all promotions, we will be using a new automatic payout system developed for the web item mall instead of handing out promotional rewards afterwards.
All of Friday's promotion items will be for sale in the webmall as special "Buy X Get Y Free" entries. If you purchase a "Buy X Get Y Free" item, you'll receive both X and Y in your bank just like when you're buying a regular item from the item mall. The promotion item will be visible by its green 'Promo' tag, which you can see examples of here:
There will be only 1 or a few items at a time marked with a green 'Promo'. They will always appear on the front page, and they will always appear under the 'Featured' tab, so you don't need to hunt for where the item normally appears in the item mall.
This is the ONLY way that purchases for this Friday will be eligible for promotion rewards. You can still buy items from the in-game item mall, BUT THEY WILL NOT BE ELIGIBLE FOR PROMOTION REWARDS. In-game promo announcements will all point you to the webmall. THERE WILL BE NO MANUAL DISTRIBUTION FOR FRIDAY'S PROMOS. All Friday purchases regardless will count towards Tiered Spender rewards.
