Webtoon app Kross Komics crosses 1 million monthly active users

Kross Komics, a first-of-its-kind webtoon app in India that aims to bring new, exciting webtoons for the country’s youth, has registered 1.1 million monthly active users (MAU). The platform has also crossed three million downloads since it commenced service in India in December 2019.

Catering to the 15-24 age group, Kross Komics’ remarkable growth trajectory stems from its mobile-friendly format and nine genres of engaging content – action, romance, drama, comedy, fantasy, horror, slice of life, mystery, and thriller. A majority of the platform’s traffic comes from tier-I and tier-II cities with females constituting the highest percentage of readers. Kross Komics has also recently forayed into the mobile gaming space in India with the launch of Kross Games through MX Player and Jio in September 2020.
