Get paid to wait
while Fortnite loads.

You already spend time waiting for Fortnite to load each match. kickbacks turns that downtime into a cash balance — a small Overwolf ad plays while you wait, and we share the revenue with you. The window closes before the pre-game island and Battle Bus.

How it works

1

Install the app

A lightweight Overwolf app that runs alongside Fortnite. It wakes up after your match is found and the loading screen begins.

2

Load into a match

While Fortnite loads your match, a small, non-intrusive ad plays in a corner overlay. It disappears before the pre-game island.

3

Your balance grows

Every qualified view earns you a share of the ad revenue. Watch your balance accrue — no extra effort, just the loading time you were spending anyway.

An honest split

Ad networks pay for the views you generate. Most apps keep all of it. We give a real cut back to the people doing the waiting.
