First Meta provides financial and payment services based in virtual currencies used in virtual worlds, social networks and MMOs.

We believe that people living in virtual worlds need, and deserve, real financial services too. This is why at First Meta, we have real people, with real financial knowledge and expertise, to fulfill that very real need.

First Meta works closely with publishers and developers of virtual worlds and MMOs to provide users with the best experience possible, at the same time, helping them more effectively monetize their in-world economies.

Our operating philosophy is centered on providing our customers with transparency and accountability. You always know who we are, what we do, and where to find us.

First Meta is funded by private investors and the Singapore Government (Interactive Digital Media R&D Programme Office). We have been featured in the likes of TechCrunch, BusinessWeek, WIRED and BBC World Service, and was named by Red Herring as one of the top 200 private technology companies in the world.
