Boku has announced that it now supports BLIK, an instant payment system in Poland, as a payment method for Google Play Store. With this launch, BLIK’s 16.3 million active users will be able to use their preferred payment method when making purchases from the Google Play Store.
BLIK is Boku’s first account-to-account (A2A) connection with Google, extending the strong relationship that the global payments network already has with Google through Boku’s Direct Carrier Billing solution.

Offering BLIK as a payment option will enable Google to not only grow its current user base on the Google Play Store, but further enhance customer satisfaction and loyalty amongst Poland’s mobile-first consumers who want quicker and more convenient payment choices.

Stuart Neal, Boku’s CEO, said: “We are very pleased to see BLIK go live as a payment option for Google Play Store in Poland. This is our first A2A connection with Google, a company we have had a relationship with for several years, providing them with Direct Carrier Billing solutions. Our mission at Boku is to empower people everywhere to pay for the services they love the way they want, and allow global merchants to seamlessly offer localised payment choice in order to unlock new growth around the world.
