About Creative Group

Have you ever bought digital credit for Netflix or Spotify, or topped up your online credit abroad? Chances are that the payment went through Creative Group. The company consists of two branches: through Rapido, customers buy prepaid credit cards and online credits for international A-brands, such as iTunes, PlayStation and Amazon, while Recharge enables the topping up of call and data bundles while abroad.

What started in 2003 as an idea to digitize assets has grown into an international scale-up with an annual turnover of 200 million. New products, channel strategies and markets have enabled Creative Group to grow rapidly over the past five years. Headquartered in Amsterdam, the company now operates with 120 FTEs in more than 130 countries worldwide and has millions of users.

The capital injection of 22 million Euros by tech investor Prime Ventures will strengthen the online team in 2020. This will pave the way for even faster global growth. Creative Group has serious growth ambitions. Despite the pandemic, the company is growing rapidly, and they want to compete at the international top level. The current turnover should grow by 100 per cent this year and reach 1 billion Euros within three years.

In order to become the go-to global destination brand, the company is currently in the middle of an extensive rebranding process. On the 1st of June, the company will merge the Recharge and Rapido brands and continue Creative Group under the name RECHARGE.COM.

In short: with the rapid expansion, internationalization and rebranding in sight, exciting times are coming. With all the necessary resources in place, all they need now is a Global Head of Online Marketing that knows exactly how to use them in a smart and effective way.
