Throwback to Spooky Night!👻 The Boku team had a spooktacular time at our “Night of the Supernaturals” Halloween party in our Estonian office, which included costumes, surprises, food, and fun. Check out the vampires, witches and devils that let their creativity run wild and free! In other offices, we hosted cozy events dedicated to pumpkin carving. From Jack Skellington faces to anime-inspired pumpkins, the art and dexterity shown by Bokuers was terrifying – we mean, terrific! It’s great to see so many people joining in the fun across the globe and making Boku culture stand for what it is: the representation of great people working together and having fun along the way 🥳 #halloween #teambuilding #boku

💥 Exciting news! In collaboration with Payments Cards & Mobile, we have launched a new white paper ‘Choosing the right Local Payment Methods’ 📄 Local payment methods (LPMs) are gaining significant traction and rapidly evolving. Across the world, there are thousands of LPMs to choose from, and in some countries, there are 100+ LPM brands. If digital merchants choose the right LPMs, they can expect a wide number of operational and monetary benefits. However, in a world with so many choices, businesses face the question of how to select and onboard the LPMs that will make the biggest difference to their online sales. The white paper explores: 🔸 Why do digital merchants need to embrace the shift to LPMs? 🔸 What are the key differences between LPMs and card-based payments? 🔸 How to develop a coherent, evidence-based LPM acceptance strategy? 🔸 What should you expect when choosing the right payment service provider?
