Non-Executive Director Change

Boku (AIM: BOKU), a global network of Local Payment Methods (LPMs), announces
that Jon Prideaux has informed the Board of his intention to retire as a
Non-Executive Director of the Company. He will stand down immediately prior to
this year's Annual General Meeting (AGM), which is expected to be held on or
around 17 June 2026, and therefore does not intend to seek re-election. Jon
has been a Non-Executive Director of the Company since 1 January 2024 and
prior to that was Chief Executive Officer (CEO) from 2014.

Richard Pennycook, Independent Non-Executive Chair of Boku commented: "I would
like to personally thank Jon for his wise counsel and contribution since I
joined the Company in August 2025 and, on behalf of the whole Board,
congratulate him on his long and distinguished tenure at Boku, firstly as CEO
and latterly as a Non-Executive Director."

Stuart Neal, Chief Executive Officer of Boku commented: "During his time as
CEO of Boku, Jon brought the Company huge success, including leading the
business through its 2017 IPO. I was proud to pick up the baton from him two
years ago and his support and counsel around the Board table since then have
been extremely helpful."

Jon Prideaux, Non-Executive Director, commented: "I've been involved with Boku
in one way or another since 2009. During that time, we went from an ambitious
startup to the thriving global business that Boku is today. I am proud of the
role I played in that growth, working alongside many talented colleagues.
Having now served as a Non-Executive Director for two years, I am confident
that the Company is in good hands with Stuart and the rest of the Executive
team and will go on to scale new heights."
