Xsolla, the acclaimed global video game commerce company, has announced a strategic expansion into the Asian gaming market backed by a series of powerful partnerships with renowned industry leaders such as Privo, AppsFlyer, and Crypto.com.
Asia has long been recognized as a vital market, housing over half of the nearly three billion video gamers worldwide. Given the rising number of smartphone users, the region has witnessed an exponential growth in the mobile gaming market value. Recognizing the potential, Xsolla is fortifying its presence in the Asian gaming market, including India, with the establishment of a new local office in Tokyo.

Forging partnerships with leading providers
Among the newly forged partnerships is a significant collaboration with Privacy Vaults Online, Inc. (PRIVO). As a forerunner in childrens online privacy and identity management solutions, PRIVOs partnership with Xsolla aims to amplify direct-to-consumer distribution strategies for game developers. This partnership ensures enhanced payment safety and protection for users.
Furthermore, Xsolla has integrated with AppsFlyer, a premier B2B SaaS/marketing technology enterprise, to provide game developers with cross-platform data-driven insights. Another groundbreaking collaboration has been announced with Crypto.com, a global cryptocurrency platform. This integration will allow Xsollas Pay Station platform users to complete transactions using Crypto.coms checkout solution.
Aiming at fostering positive evolution in the gaming industry
Anton Zelenin, Chief Product Officer, Fintech of Xsolla, commented on the expansion, stating, “At Xsolla, we are not just focused on elevating the gaming experience. We are committed to fostering positive evolution as the industry continually grows. Our collaboration with PRIVO is a testament to our dedication to enhancing video game commerce security, especially for our young gamers and their guardians.”
As an addition to its suite of products, Xsolla is set to integrate the Parental Control feature later this year. Designed to prioritize the safety of young players, the Parental Control feature offers parents a hands-on approach to manage their childrens digital transactions, ensuring only authorized payments are processed.
