Razer Fintech says the takeover complements Razer Merchant Services, its business-to-business (B2B) arm, as it facilitates cross-border payments for its 60,000 merchants to Indonesia.

“The acquisition of E2Pay enables us to accelerate our entry into Indonesia, one of the fastest growing digital economies in Southeast Asia, as well as better serve the digital payment needs of our regional merchants. and worldwide as a unique partner of choice.”
Founded in 2018, Razer Fintech claims to be “one of the largest” offline-to-online digital payment networks in emerging markets. It says it recorded a total payment volume of $7 billion for fiscal 2021, representing a 63.5% year-over-year increase.
Last year, however, it shut down its payments arm, Razer Pay, after a two-year foray into the e-wallet/payments business.
