Paysafe Launches Unified Payments Partnership With Strive Gaming

Online sportsbook platform provider plugs into Paysafe to offer payment solutions to gaming operators in regulated markets across North America

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Paysafe (NYSE: PSFE), a leading specialized payments platform, today announced a new partnership with Strive Gaming, an advanced player account management (PAM) platform designed for the multi-state requirements of online operators in the North American market.

The partnership with Paysafe follows Strive Gaming’s recently unveiled collaboration with longstanding Paysafe partner Golden Nugget Online Gaming in the U.S. state of Arizona and the Canadian province of Ontario. Strive Gaming has now integrated Paysafe’s payments technology into its PAM platform to provide Golden Nugget Online Gaming and its other U.S. and Canadian iGaming clients with a full suite of traditional and alternative payment methods via a single interface.

Through Paysafe, operators that adopt the Strive Gaming PAM platform will be able to offer their customers a complete range of depositing and payout options tailored to their specific preferences. Players will have the ability to easily deposit funds using their credit or debit card, with transactions processed seamlessly via Paysafe’s best-in-breed payment gateway, in addition to the Skrill USA digital wallet, which was upgraded in Q4, and Paysafecash and paysafecard eCash solutions for those who prefer to wager online with cash.

Paysafe will also support the Strive Gaming PAM platform with real-time reporting and analytics tools, which allow for the monitoring of transactions and individual payment methods to optimize online payment acceptance, as well as enhanced security to protect player and operator data.

Zak Cutler, CEO of North America iGaming at Paysafe, said: “We’re proud to support Strive Gaming’s core mission of bringing operators closer to their customers through our leading payment solutions. We look forward to evolving our partnership with Strive Gaming to support North American iGaming operators’ growth in new and existing markets.”

Integrations and partnerships at the deepest levels, and quickly achieved, are a hallmark of our tech stack with no technical debt. Integrating and collaborating with Paysafe makes so much sense for our customers, and we are pleased to be working with Paysafe now and over the long-term.”
