Xsolla has introduced 11 new local payment methods in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. These payment methods include Fawry Cash, Aman, Masary, Momken, Vodafone Wallet, Orange Cash Wallet, and Mobile & Banking Wallets in Egypt; Sadad in Saudi Arabia; eFAWATEERcom in Jordan; and STC Direct Carrier Billing (DCB) in Bahrain. According to Newzoo, with a year-on-year growth rate of 8.9% in 2024, the region is one of the fastest-growing gaming markets globally. With this expansion in MENA, Xsolla now supports over 1,000+ payment methods by accepting transactions globally for video game developers and publishers. The MENA region is home to over 380 million gamers, a significant proportion of the global gaming audience, yet international gaming companies have historically underserved it. Developers and publishers looking to tap into this opportunity face unique challenges – payment accessibility, a lack of local options, and low trust in non-regional payment methods have all hindered market growth.
