Xsolla Brings New Payment Methods for Gamers in Africa, Adding Access for 440 Million Customers and Users

Xsolla, a global video game commerce company, continues to expand its presence in Africa by integrating MTN and Airtel mobile money services. This strategic move addresses the unique financial landscape of Africa where a significant portion of the population, particularly in regions like Ghana and Uganda, remains unbanked.

Mobile money services are pivotal, enabling users to manage funds through mobile devices and circumventing the need for traditional banking infrastructure. This initiative opens up a vast new customer base, leveraging MTN’s 292 million and Airtel’s 147 million users, and simplifies transactions for Xsolla merchants, who can now accept these payment methods effortlessly. It represents a significant leap towards global expansion for game developers, utilizing Pay Station’s comprehensive payment options and wide market reach to deliver a smooth and inclusive payment experience.

The President for Xsolla, David Stelzer, emphasizes the importance of this initiative, stating, “Our efforts to integrate local payment methods are crucial for expanding our reach in Africa, catering to both banked and unbanked users in these emerging markets. Nearly 40 million potential users will benefit from our simplified integration process for developers, enabling them to concentrate on creating engaging gaming experiences while we handle the intricacies of payments, fraud, taxes and compliance in Africa.”

Key Advantages and Project Expansion:

• Expanded Market Reach: Developers can now connect with Africa’s diverse gaming community, increasing their presence across the continent through localized payment solutions such as 1Voucher in South Africa, FawryPay in Egypt and mobile wallets like Airtel, MTN and Vodafone in Ghana and Uganda
• Improved Sales and Conversion Rates: By adopting local payment methods, the transaction process becomes more efficient and user-friendly, aligning with the preferences of African gamers
• New User Acquisition: Access to new markets invites engagement with active and enthusiastic gamers, fostering opportunities for revenue growth

This initiative not only aims to facilitate smoother transactions and broaden market access for game developers but also signifies a commitment to supporting the growth of Africa’s gaming community and providing developers with essential tools for success in these evolving markets.

The live Payment Gateway enables end-to-end payment management through the user interface. It allows the operation of all payment methods and their limits on the payment pages, provides multiple integrations of various payment methods, reports and dashboards for analysis and is PCI-DSS Level 1 Compliant.

Ms. Drumeva concluded: “African countries are among our priority markets. I am pleased to say that we have already started partnerships with several operators in South Africa and the performance demonstrated by our games so far has been excellent. I believe that our participation in SIGMA Africa will give us the chance to meet with many more potential customers from the region who will be able to see and try our products on site and this will have as a result many more deals closed.”
