💸 Economy & Taxes

What would a bounty plugin be without a proper economy and tax system? 🤑

Taxes

In order to prevent your players from abusing bounties, you may use taxes to make them think twice before creating/removing a bounty. Using the config, you may configure a set percentage of the reward that will be taken whenever a player either creates a bounty, adds money to someone's bounty or takes off the money he had put on someone's head.

TIP

We recommend using a big tax, say 10%, on bounty claims to stabilize your economy, as that would be the equivalent of VAT.

You can also then use a smaller tax, like 1-3%, on bounty removal to discourage players from creating fake or useless bounties. If you tax bounty removal instead creation, players will be encouraged to create bounties, which is good for your server's activity!

Minimum/maximum reward

Using this config option, you can decide the minimum and maximum amount of money a player can add to a bounty.

# Min and max bounty rewards.
# Set max to 0 to remove the max restriction.
