A Xsolla Case Study
Hi-Rez Studios, a privately held game developer behind titles like SMITE and Paladins, faced a fragmented in-game commerce system that made managing virtual currency and items difficult. They engaged Xsolla to consolidate storefront and billing operations into Xsolla’s PayStation, and to enable direct PayPal payouts while supporting mobile price points and prepaid cards with fixed denominations.
Xsolla implemented PayStation to centralize virtual currency and item packages (e.g., gem bundles), provide a single unified payment interface including PayPal, and add a dynamic “closest allowed amount” purchase flow for mobile and prepaid methods. The Xsolla solution enabled direct PayPal payouts, reduced lost purchases from unsupported price points, and increased mobile payment conversions from the day the feature was enabled.
