SINGAPORE and AMSTERDAM, July 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Coda, a global leader in digital content monetization headquartered in Singapore, today announced it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Recharge, Europe's leading prepaid payments platform, headquartered in Amsterdam.

The acquisition accelerates Coda's expansion beyond gaming and strengthens its ability to serve the broader digital content economy — across categories, customers, and continents — by extending its presence in Europe and building on its direct-to-consumer capabilities. For Recharge, the deal brings B2B expertise, access to deeper partnerships with top-tier digital content publishers, and a proven playbook for growth in high-growth markets, especially across Asia. Based on 2024 figures, the combined business would have processed more than US$1.75 billion in sales, served over 200 million customers, and operated in upwards of 180 markets — marking a scaled global footprint from day one.

With a network of over 400 local payment channels, Coda offers consumers better value and more choice. For publishers, Coda simplifies global growth —managing risk, compliance, and customer support as Merchant of Record. Recharge — a European leader in prepaid digital storefronts like and — strengthens Coda's B2C scale and reach across Europe. With over 16,000 products spanning gaming, mobile, gift cards, and lifestyle, Recharge combines a marketing-led, consumer-first approach with established brand equity and a user base of more than 8 million. Trusted by over 1,000 global brands — including Apple, Google, Vodafone, and PlayStation — Recharge brings retail strength, relevance, and regional depth. "We've long admired what the Recharge team has built — a profitable, consumer-focused business with top global brands and real depth across Europe," said Shane Happach, CEO of Coda. "This transaction brings together two regional commerce leaders with distinct but highly complementary strengths. At Coda, we've focused on scaling our B2B capabilities alongside, working with the world's leading digital publishers to maximize their revenue — particularly in high-growth, complex markets across Southeast Asia. Recharge adds a powerful direct-to-consumer engine, deep prepaid expertise, and strong brand equity across Europe. Most importantly, we're bringing together two teams that share the same values: ambition, collaboration, and commercial sharpness. That gives us a strong foundation to lead the next chapter in global digital content distribution and monetization." "At Recharge, we've focused on building the technology platform that connects and scales the prepaid payments ecosystem — enabling seamless transactions between users, products, and brands through smart, data-driven infrastructure," said Günther Vogelpoel, CEO of Recharge. "That focus, combined with a passionate team that consistently executes with precision, and pace, has allowed us to scale a profitable and trusted business across Europe and beyond." "Joining forces with Coda gives us the opportunity to take everything we've built — from our platform to our partnerships — and extend it globally to truly become the global leader we set out to be. With complementary strengths and a shared DNA, this unique combination sets us up to create even more value for the brands, publishers, and customers we serve." From premium content to prepaid products, this transaction brings together payments expertise, publisher and brand partnerships, and broad consumer reach — opening up real opportunities for cross-sell and deeper market access. With complementary capabilities, wider global coverage, and an expanded catalogue, Coda and Recharge are better positioned to collectively serve the full digital content economy across both B2B and B2C. Together, the combined company will deliver improved value and convenience to partners and consumers worldwide through secure, trusted, and locally relevant monetization and distribution solutions.
