Eneba is a Lithuania-based online marketplace for video game keys and digital entertainment products.[1][2][3][4] Founded in 2018, the company lists game keys, downloadable content, gift cards, subscriptions, and in-game currencies from sellers.[5][6][7]

History

Eneba was established in 2018 as Helis Play[8][9] by Vytis Uogintas and Zygimantas Mikšta in Kaunas, Lithuania.[10] A UK holding company, Eneba Holdings Limited, was incorporated on 17 July 2019 in London.[11] Uogintas and Mikšta had been business partners since 2012, having previously co-founded the digital-marketing company SeoHelis and the advertising agency Kokosas.[12][13]

In 2016, they created the software company Helis LT, which was later sold to Tesonet.[14][15] In October 2019, Eneba closed a €2.5 million seed investment.[16][17][18] In December 2020, Eneba raised $8 million in a round led by Practica Capital and InReach Ventures[19], with FJ Labs and angel investors, including Vinted chief operating officer Mantas Mikuckas.[2][20] According to TechCrunch it had about 26 million unique users at the time.[1][2] In April 2022, Eneba announced a payments partnership with Nuvei.[21] In June 2024, Eneba partnered with dLocal to add local payment methods in several Latin American markets.[21][22][23]

In September 2024, Eneba signed distribution agreements with Riot Games and Garena.[24][4] In November 2025, the Lithuanian national development institution ILTE issued a €10 million loan to Eneba to develop an artificial intelligence recommendation system for a mobile games platform.[25][26][27]
