The story

Founded in 2019 as a B2B SaaS platform for secure PC game key distribution, VaultN initially focused on automating the distribution workflow between publishers, distributors, and retailers. As the network grew to include major publishers like Take-Two Interactive, VaultN identified payments as the critical missing layer — transactions moved instantly but money followed a weeks-long invoicing process. In 2026 VaultN launched VaultN Payments & Wallet in partnership with Paysafe/Skrill Business, embedding real-time B2B settlement directly into the distribution flow and beginning a transition from pure distribution SaaS to a full commercial-lifecycle orchestration platform for games.
