Tebex

A payment service for games: as merchant of record it sells items and subscriptions to players through webstores or an embedded checkout, and handles tax and chargebacks.

What Tebex is

Written from its maker's own pages, read on 28 October 2026.

Tebex is a payment and webstore platform for game studios and game-server owners. It acts as the merchant of record: the legal seller of each purchase, so Tebex, not the studio, takes responsibility for payments, sales tax, compliance, fraud and chargebacks (card payments that the buyer disputes and the bank reverses).

A studio or server owner sells items, subscriptions, season passes and DLC through a themed webstore, an in-game store, or a headless API, which lets the studio keep its own interface while Tebex runs the sales in the background. Tebex.js lets developers embed the checkout in their own website, so the buyer does not leave the site. The checkout accepts more than 130 payment methods, saves payment methods for repeat purchases, and routes each payment to the acquirer (the bank that processes card payments) that works best in that region. Tebex runs subscription billing and renewals and pays the seller out to a bank or PayPal account.

It is a hosted service. For game servers, the Starter plan has no monthly fee and takes a flat percentage of each transaction; the Plus plan adds a monthly fee.
