Infinite cap games have microtransactions that can be purchased over and over again without any limit. This is in contrast to Finite spend games that have a limit. This excludes services that you'd only ever seen once, e.g. character name change, server move etc. If the limit is finite e.g. one can spend over $1,000 US dollars, then for all intents and purposes this is considered an 'infinite cap' on microtransactions. | |

If the game has a loot box system, then it is likely that for all intents and purposes it is an 'infinite spend' microtransaction game. |
