Live Gamer, Inc. (www.livegamer.com), the leading monetization solution provider for the interactive entertainment industry, today announced that it has been selected to power payments for GREE, a global leader in mobile social gaming. Game developers can now use the HTML5-based GREE platform to publish games across platforms and monetize worldwide by accepting credit cards, mobile payments, and other methods in local currencies spanning 46 countries and six continents.

The agreement with GREE represents a major move to support mobile publishers and developers for Live Gamer, building on its position as one of the world's leading integrated e-commerce and advertising platforms. Enterprise customers including Facebook, Take 2, Sony Online Entertainment, Electronic Arts, Conde Nast and EMI amongst others leverage Live Gamer solutions to help monetize their digital content. In addition to providing comprehensive e-commerce and payment functionality, Live Gamer operates the world's second-largest gaming ad network, helping its customers acquire new users through its reach to over 90 million monthly unique users.

By supporting GREE, a leading global mobile social platform, Live Gamer is placed at the center of the tremendous opportunity offered by the booming mobile game market which has been projected to reach $17.6 billion in 2015 (source: Ichiyoshi Securities). As smartphones and tablets drive exponential growth in mobile connectivity, mobile developers have adapted new business models based on "freemium" games: instead of being sold as a one-time purchase, apps are offered free, and monetized through in-game sales of virtual goods such as characters, accessories, weapons, and virtual currency.

Through its relationship with Live Gamer, GREE will now enable third-party developers using its platform to capture such payments as well -- denominated in "GREE Coin" and paid for in dozens of real-world local currencies, optimized for conversion rate. Instead of having to create separate versions of their apps for iOS and Android devices, the HTML5-based GREE platform allows developers to create a single version that can be played on any HTML5-compatible browser on any type of mobile device. The Live Gamer payment engine will make it simple for developers to monetize a global audience using a variety of payment methods, including PayPal™; international credit cards including JCB, VISA, MasterCard, and American Express; mobile payments through up to 166 mobile carriers; and local methods via GREE Coin.

"We're thrilled to be working with GREE, whose unique platform and leadership in social mobile gaming have helped to create thriving worldwide communities of developers and players," said Andrew Schneider, president and co-founder of Live Gamer, Inc. "Our collaboration means that developers on GREE Platform will be able to achieve higher monetization rates and truly global reach, while consumers enjoy a rich, convenient, and intuitive experience for enhancing their play through in-game commerce."
