April 28 2021 - 9:00AM
Nuvei Corporation (TSX: NVEI and NVEI.U) the global payment
technology partner of thriving brands, announces a deal with
Wargaming Group Limited, the legendary online gaming developer and
publisher. Nuvei will provide local acquiring solutions and payment
technology to power Wargaming’s growth, launching in the Asia
Pacific (APAC) market. Wargaming offers a unique, action-packed
Massively Multiplayer Online (MMO) gaming experience to hundreds of
millions of users around the world.
Statista figures from 2020 showed that there were nearly 1.5
billion gamers in Asia Pacific, by far the largest number
worldwide. Wargaming’s natural next step was to accelerate
expansion to enable players in this booming region to enjoy their
iconic games. Wargaming chose the payment provider that would best
enable them to offer clients the localized payment methods of
choice to capitalize on this huge market.
“We strive to accommodate our players in all regions by
providing them the payments they trust,” said Kate Gromova, senior
payments manager at Wargaming. “We look forward to our relationship
with Nuvei, chosen for their extensive experience in the region and
impressive portfolio of APAC local payment methods.”
Trending APAC payment methods available to Wargaming players
through their single integration with Nuvei include Paytm,
NetBanking, UPI and RuPay in India, DANA in Indonesia, GCash in the
Philippines, plus SCB, KTB, BAY and BBL in Thailand.
"A driving force behind our clients' success is the seamless way
in which we can facilitate their international expansion and drive
additional revenue opportunities," said Philip Fayer, Nuvei's
chairman and CEO. "We are delighted to provide Wargaming with the
required expertise and innovative payment solutions as they
diversify and scale their offering in more markets."
