Company profile

researched Sep 2026

Boxo is a software company that enables existing mobile applications to become "super apps" by embedding pre-built, white-label miniapps. Customers integrate once with the Boxo SDK and can then select services from a feature library, including marketplaces, bill payments, eSIM, remittance, flight and hotel booking, insurance, airport lounges, games, loyalty programs, mini-games and AI chatbots. Miniapps can be customised to the host brand's colours and styling, and are managed through a Boxo dashboard that also provides analytics on miniapp performance.

The platform targets apps in e-commerce, travel, financial services and lifestyle. Boxo states that a miniapp platform allows features to be developed, updated and released without app store approval, and that a typical integration takes roughly three to four weeks (API evaluation, authorisation and payment integration, callback linking in a sandbox), with about one further week to activate a miniapp, run end-to-end testing and go live. Boxo also positions the platform as a way for groups with multiple apps to build a centralised feature library rather than maintaining separate Android, iOS, Flutter and React Native SDK integrations with each partner.

The company describes itself as a Series A startup headquartered in Singapore, operating five offices with remote teams across four other countries, and says roughly 80% of its staff are developers. A third-party business-data profile lists it in the software development industry with 11-50 employees and locations across Asia, Europe and North America.

Business model

Boxo licenses a B2B platform: host apps integrate the Boxo SDK once and then deploy selected white-label miniapps, which Boxo positions as a way for clients to add services quickly and open additional revenue streams within their own apps.

Public materials describe the offering as a platform and SDK sold to app operators and enterprises; specific pricing terms are not disclosed. A third-party data provider estimates annual revenue in the $10M-$25M range as of August 2026.

Traction

The company reports 10 super app deployments, over 75,000 merchants onboarded, more than 600 miniapp integrations and over 500 million combined users across its ecosystem. Named users and partners include GCash (cited as the leading super app in the Philippines with over 80 million users, using Boxo's Marketplace miniapp), ROSHN in Saudi Arabia, Binance, Touch 'n Go and VodaPay/Vodacom.

Latest developments

In October 2024 Boxo and Airalo announced a partnership with Canadian fintech KOHO following an earlier eSIM miniapp collaboration, and in November 2024 Boxo launched a white-label remittance platform for mobile apps together with global payments infrastructure provider Nium.

Single integration giving access to a catalogue of pre-built, industry-tailored white-label miniapps that can be branded by the client, updated without app store approval, and shared across multiple apps in a group via a centralised feature library, in place of building each service from scratch or maintaining multiple SDK integrations.
