“India has become one of the fastest-growing game economies in Asia, bringing in approximately $1.5B annually, with growth expected to nearly triple by 2024,” said Xsolla’s Head of Payments and Commerce, Anton Zelenin. “Historically, India’s payments market has been dominated by cash, and is only now evolving to meet the demands of its increasingly smartphone-led online shopping culture. To sell successfully in this country, developers need access to multiple payment methods which can be complicated. This is where Xsolla brings value with our payment solutions to interface with pre-integrated local payment methods.”
