Xsolla extends its payment solution by integrating Maya, PayNow, WeChat Pay HK, JazzCash, and Easypaisa for video game developers and gamers in the Philippines, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Pakistan. Now, game developers can reach over 76 million gamers across these markets and increase conversion rates through localised payment interfaces and local processing.
For game publishers, large or small, looking forward to international growth—particularly within Southeast Asia, East Asia, and Pacific regions—Xsolla’s move offers them an important resource: access not only to advanced technology and local payment solutions but also to deep market insights which come from working closely with local industry experts.
Officials from Xsolla said they are unlocking access to five new payment channels across four booming Southeast Asia, East Asia, and Pacific markets, providing game developers with the tools to reach more gamers, improve conversion rates, and increase revenue. These markets are growing faster than the global average, with an annual growth rate of 9.47% compared to the global rate of 8.76%.
With 54% of global players in the APAC region, these predominantly younger gamers benefit from a high mobile penetration rate: 80.5% in Pakistan and over 140% in the other three countries, far above the global average of 69% in 2023. By offering local payment methods like Maya, PayNow, WeChat Pay HK, JazzCash, and Easypaisa, Xsolla is making it easier for developers to monetise their games in one of the world's fastest-growing gaming regions.
The Xsolla Payments solution offers a global reach with over 700 payment methods through a highly customisable multi-platform checkout, delivering a more comprehensive selection than most payment solutions in the industry. This expansion aims to help developers monetise and distribute their games globally while building a credible local presence in Asia.
