Earlier, Wargaming shares were traded on the Cyprus Stock Exchange, but on January 13, 2015, they were withdrawn from trading for the late publication of financial results. The representative of Wargaming then stated that the Cyprus Stock Exchange is too small and does not correspond to the strategic vector of the company's development.

The main income of World of Tanks is the purchase of equipment, shells and other virtual equipment by players through micro-transactions.

Victor Kislyi founded the company, which was later renamed Wargaming, in 1998. In 2010, World of Tanks was released, which was played by more than 100 million users worldwide in four years already - in 2014.

Wargaming also owns a 20.3% stake in the Cyprus bank Hellenic.
