Razer Gold secures Major Payment Institution license from the Monetary Authority of Singapore

Milestone approval enables Razer Gold to deliver regulated, scalable payment services across Singapore’s digital economy.

Razer Gold, the unified virtual credit platform for gamers worldwide, today announced that it has been officially granted a Major Payment Institution (MPI) license by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), effective 1 July 2025. This follows the in-principle approval received earlier and marks a pivotal milestone in Razer Gold’s journey to become a leading digital payment provider in the gaming ecosystem.

With this license, Razer Gold is now authorized to offer regulated payment services in Singapore, account issuance, domestic and cross-border money transfers, merchant acquisition, and e-money issuance. These capabilities will enable Razer Gold to further enhance its offers and deliver secure, seamless, and scalable payment solutions to gamers, merchants, and partners across the region.

“Receiving the Major Payment Institution License from the Monetary Authority of Singapore is a key milestone in Razer Gold’s growth journey,” said Adisorn Phonnarut, Global Head of Razer Gold. “It reflects our commitment to operating within a strong regulatory framework and contributing to Singapore’s vision as a leading hub for digital innovation and financial services. With this license, we look forward to supporting the digital economy by delivering secure, inclusive payment solutions tailored to the needs of the gaming and digital content sectors.”

Razer Gold had previously operated under a temporary exemption as part of transitional arrangements under the Payment Services Act. The successful transition to a licensed MPI underscores the company’s dedication to compliance, operational integrity, and long-term growth in the fintech and gaming sectors.
