Codemasters partners with PlaySpan

Online payment firm bypasses credit card problems with UltimatePay service

Codemasters Online has partnered with online payments company PlaySpan to offer customers over 50 new ways to pay for services, without using a credit card.

By using PlaySpan's UltimatePay service Codemasters Online customers will be able to purchase digital goods and services using more than 56 different payment methods, from CertaPay to Wallie Card.

"I am delighted to launch this new scheme and think it is fantastic that we can now provide yet another route for users without credit cards to enjoy our games and services. We are working hard to constantly improve our customer experience and this is another step in that direction," said David Solari, vice president and general manager of Codemasters Online.

"PlaySpan is excited and proud to partner with Codemasters Online," added Karl Mehta, founder and CEO of PlaySpan. "We’re eager to introduce UltimatePay to fans and enable more of them to experience Codemasters premium content."

PlaySpan has seen rapid expansion in recent months, following a USD 16.8 million cash injection last year that has seen the company begin its expansion into European markets - aided by the appointment of former SCEE CEO Chris Deering to its advisory board. The firm also recently acquired social network microtransaction experts Spare Change.
