Key benefits: - **All in one place**: no need to sign separate agreements with YAN and switch between interfaces — everything works under a single agreement, all [documents](#documents) and payment data are available in the [Console](https://games.yandex.com/console){.external}, and [payment details](#payment-details) — in Yandex Balance. - **Single payment**: you receive payments for advertising and in-app purchases in one payment. - **Less hassle**: we place ads and pay the 3% fee ourselves, in-app purchases are enabled without contacting support. ## Check if enabled {#check-ulm} 1. Open the [Developer Console](https://games.yandex.com/console){.external}. 1. Go to the **Account** section. 1.

If you find errors in the Act, report them in your reply within 10 business days from the date the Act was issued. If we do not receive an email describing the errors within the specified period, the remuneration amount in the document will be considered agreed upon.
