In-game micro-transactions (in-app purchases) in such games that enhance the playing experience of the respective user, such as virtual items, would normally qualify as contracts for online digital content. Also in-app purchases of content that could be used outside the game (e.g. a recording of the gaming session that can be downloaded or shared on a video-sharing platform) would normally constitute a contract for online digital content. In contrast, the purchase of premium content that expands the online gaming environment would represent a new digital service that complements the original one.
