IGE

IGE (Internet Gaming Entertainment) is a company that trades in virtual currency and accounts for MMORPGs. The company sold virtual goods for real money in more than a dozen popular games. Members of the gaming community were often critical of IGE, as its services were against the rules of the games, though not illegal by the laws of the real countries in which the games would operate.

During its peak, it had offices in Los Angeles, Shanghai as well as headquarters and a customer service center in Hong Kong. It was reformed in 2007 by Jonathan Yantis.
