Moshi Monsters is an website aimed at children aged 6–14, with over 80 million registered users in 150 territories worldwide. Children choose from one of six virtual pet monsters (Divalo, Luvli, Katsuma, Poppet, Zommer and Furi) that they can create, name and nurture for. Once their pet has been customized, players can navigate their way around Monstro City, take daily puzzle challenges to earn ‘Rox’ (virtual currency); play games; personalize their room and communicate with friends in a safe environment.

Following its online success, Moshi Monsters has expanded commercially with physical products, including toys, Moshi Monsters Magazine (the number-one selling kids' magazine in the UK), a best-selling DS video game, a music album, books, membership cards, Bath soap, Chocolate calendars, trading cards and figures of many Moshlings. In December 2012, 8 Moshi Monster toys were given in McDonald's Happy Meals in the United States and Canada.
