NEXUS announced on the 24th that its Dubai-based subsidiary, NEXUS Hub FZCO, has entered into a partnership with Worldpay. Through this agreement, NEXUS has expanded the global payment infrastructure for its game-centric web store, CROSS Shop. Moving forward, users worldwide will be able to purchase game items more conveniently using their local currencies as well as various digital assets.

Worldpay is a global payment service provider that processes over 50 billion transactions annually and operates in more than 146 countries. Recognized for its high reliability and standardized payment infrastructure, it supports companies worldwide in accepting payments securely and rapidly. By securing Worldpay's extensive global network, NEXUS has established a payment environment that spans 146 countries.

CROSS Shop is a web store that allows game developers to sell game products directly on the web, bypassing mobile app markets. In particular, it supports 0% fee payments through CROSS Pay, a stablecoin-based payment infrastructure, allowing developers to retain their full revenue without the burden of app market fees. With this partnership, CROSS Shop has expanded its existing payment methods to include Worldpay's traditional electronic payment solutions.

Meanwhile, NEXUS has introduced the Base x402 protocol to its AI agent game platform, MoltyRoyale, laying the foundation for AI agents to act as economic entities.

NEXUS CEO Jang Hyun-guk stated, "Through the partnership with Worldpay, our AI and blockchain-based platform CROSS now supports both Web2 and Web3, and with the previously applied x402 protocol, we are now encompassing Web4 as well." He added, "We will continue to complete a payment infrastructure that offers maximum profitability for developers and a seamless, borderless payment experience for users."
