Boku

Boku operates a B2B payments infrastructure model. It aggregates local payment methods and collection capabilities into a single API and managed service layer, allowing enterprise merchants to outsource multi-market payment acceptance, authentication, compliance support and settlement. Value is created by reducing merchant integration complexity, improving local conversion, enabling recurring payments and handling fragmented regional payment operations through both software and operational services.

Boku, Inc. is a UK-headquartered public payments technology company that provides enterprise merchants with access to local payment methods through a unified integration. Its core offer centres on payment gateway and orchestration capabilities spanning carrier billing, digital wallets, real-time bank transfers, local collection and settlement, plus supporting services such as in-market payment partner management and payment strategy advice.

The company makes money primarily by charging merchants transaction-based fees and enterprise service fees for payment processing, local method aggregation, settlement and related managed services. Its customers are mainly large digital merchants such as streaming services, gaming companies, app developers and e-commerce or digital platform businesses that need local payment acceptance, recurring billing and cross-border settlement without building fragmented country-by-country integrations.
