Exhibit 99.1

DoubleDown Interactive to Donate $10,000 to the ASPCA^®

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON – July 22, 2024 — DoubleDown Interactive Co., Ltd. (NASDAQ: DDI) (“DoubleDown” or the “Company”), a leading developer and publisher of digital games on mobile and web-based platforms, announced today a $10,000 donation to the ASPCA^® (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals^®) in support of its mission to prevent cruelty to dogs, cats, equines, and farm animals throughout the United States.

DoubleDown Casino, which is played daily by millions of fans worldwide on both desktop and mobile devices, will invite players to engage with and show support for the charitable donation by taking part in a play-to-enter giveaway on July 27-28, 2024. DoubleDown’s Claws for the Cause event will offer players the chance to express their enthusiasm for helping the ASPCA and to learn more about the organization’s work to help vulnerable animals, particularly during warmer months at the height of feline breeding season. “Kitten season,” as it’s known, is the time of year when shelters are under additional strain due to a surge of newborn kittens requiring intensive, specialized care.

“DoubleDown Interactive has been proud to support the ASPCA for years, and we are pleased to bring additional focus to their efforts during kitten season,” said In Keuk Kim, CEO of DoubleDown. “Everyone at DoubleDown is passionate about animal welfare, and we know our players feel just as strongly.”

“We are thankful for DoubleDown’s continued contributions to our lifesaving work to help animals in need across the nation,” said Matthew Carroll, Director, ASPCA Cause Partnerships. “DoubleDown’s efforts to raise awareness for the tremendous support shelters and communities need during kitten season is another example of their commitment to the welfare and safety of animals. We encourage the public to consider helping shelter animals through adoption and fostering.”
