Case Study: Disruptor Beam achieves 20% higher transaction profitability and frictionless global checkout with BlueSnap Powered Buy Platform

How BlueSnap helped one of its customers, Disruptor Beam, make big moves in the gaming space

Disruptor Beam, a Boston-based developer of community and story-driven games best known for Game of Thrones Ascent (9 million players), needed a way to make in-game purchases seamless for a global web audience. Their primary challenge was preserving user experience—avoiding interruptions during play—while ensuring high payment conversion rates and minimizing declines across many countries.

Disruptor Beam integrated BlueSnap’s Hosted Checkout/Powered Buy Platform in under a week to simplify checkout (fewer fields), offer local languages and currencies, and route payments to local banks to boost approval rates. The result was frictionless checkout with improved conversions and repeat purchases, expanded reach into 100+ countries, and more than a 20% increase in profitability per transaction.
