Abstract
One aspect of the disclosure relates to providing players of an online game the option of performing one or more activities external to the online game instead of spend virtual currency to accomplish a specific action in the game. This option is presented through an interface that creates and displays separate 'offer walls' for separation actions in the game. The activities may thematically correspond to the type of action the player wants to perform.
