Cellcom Liberia and Prepay Nation Launch International Mobile Top-Up Worldwide

Partnership offers instant prepaid mobile airtime refills at over 175,000 retail locations.

Berwyn, PA (USA), August 15, 2014 — Cellcom Liberia, one of the largest telecommunications providers in Liberia and the first provider of 4G service in the region, has partnered with Prepay Nation, a leading provider of cross-border microvalue and prepaid mobile airtime transfers, to make mobile airtime refills for its subscribers available for purchase overseas. The move will open up a no-fee form of remittance to the hundreds of thousands of Liberian expatriates who support their loved ones back home.

Liberian emigrants are estimated to number over 500,000, largely concentrated in the U.S.A., Germany, Italy, Holland and UK. According to the World Bank, 20% of Liberia’s GDP comes from remittances as they send millions of dollars home every year to help loved ones with bills and expenses. Pew Research estimates $342 million worth of remittance was received by Liberia in 2012, out of which $166 million was sent from the U.S., and $80 million was sent from Guinea. Cellcom in Guinea and Prepay Nation have enjoyed a successful partnership for the last 2 years, a high-volume collaboration that has inspired corporate confidence in this Cellcom Liberia initiative.

Most of the funds received by Liberia is sent through traditional money transfer organizations, but the price of those channels is steep: it costs as much as $15 in fees to send only $200 from the United States to Liberia, where it must be physically collected, incurring both inconvenience and often risk.

“Mobile airtime is a different way to provide financial assistance to family back home,” said Hervé Perrin, VP of Business Development at Prepay Nation. “With this partnership, Liberian immigrants in the U.S.A., Canada, Europe and the Middle East can now purchase airtime refills for their loved ones’ phones. The full value of the purchase, with no fees subtracted, is received instantly on the subscriber’s mobile.”

“Their hard-earned dollars go further, and immediately relieve of one of their loved ones’ primary expenses,” added Perrin. “It’s a godsend for immigrant populations all over the world, and we’re thrilled to make it a reality for Cellcom subscribers.”

“Our primary focus is always on providing greater and greater value for our subscribers,” said John Vasikaran, CEO of Cellcom Liberia. “We have led the charge in growing and enhancing Liberia’s mobile technology infrastructure, and have twice been recognized as the Best GSM Company in Liberia. Opening up the ability to receive instant, Free of Cost airtime transfers from family and friends abroad is a perfect addition to our offerings. Prepay Nation’s retail network spans 175,000 locations, touching our whole diaspora, and we are confident that our customers will love this new opportunity.”

Frank Quiñones Joins Prepay Nation Team

Money transfer veteran takes on role as National Sales Manager.

Berwyn, PA (USA), July 18, 2014 — Prepay Nation, a leading provider of cross-border microvalue and prepaid mobile airtime transfers, is pleased to welcome seasoned sales leader Frank Quiñones to their team. Quiñones will be serving as National Sales Manager, focusing his efforts on growing Prepay Nation’s distribution base within the Financial Services Centers market, with an emphasis on the Spanish-speaking sector.

Recently responsible for prepaid product launches at money transfer firm Sigue, Quiñones has a wealth of both sales experience and familiarity with the value remittance market. He has worked with industry leaders such as Western Union, MoneyGram, Praxell and Softgate, garnering a reputation for excellent salesmanship and strong customer relationships. Originally from Puerto Rico, Quiñones will lead both west coast and Spanish-speaking retail business development for the Prepay Nation network.

With 53 million Hispanic individuals living in the United States, over 19 million of whom are immigrants, the Spanish-speaking population is a large and growing force in the US economy. Businesses catering to the needs of this demographic often include cross-border money remittance services—a high-demand service, with over $41 billion being remitted to Spanish-speaking Latin America from the U.S. annually. According to World Bank data analyzed by the Pew Research Center, funds transferred to Latin America account for a third (33%) of remittances from the U.S.

“Money remittance is a vital service, but often an expensive one,” said Quiñones. “By selling international airtime top-ups as a form of remittance, businesses can bring a no-fee option to their customers who want to support their loved ones back home. It’s a huge value, and I am eager to help our partners grow by incorporating it into their offerings.”

“We are excited to have Frank on our team,” said Anurag Jain, CEO of Prepay Nation. “His dedication to providing strong value to customers, along with his Spanish fluency and familiarity with both prepaid products and cross-border remittance channels, are going to be excellent assets to Prepay Nation. We’re confident that he will contribute greatly not only to our growth, but also to the success of each of our retail and distribution partners.”

Tagattitude Announces Partnership with Prepay Nation

Prepay Nation enables international diasporas to transfer values to mobile wallets in Africa, Latin America and Caribbean via TagPay platforms.

Paris & Philadelphia, PA (USA), October 03, 2013 — Tagattitude, the company behind the award-winning TagPay mobile money platform, announces a partnership with Prepay Nation, a leading provider of cross-border, micro –value transfers. This partnership seeks to connect the customers in Prepay Nation’s distribution network with the mobile money services running on TagPay.

Prepay Nation has an established practice in mobile airtime transfers and currently works with key mobile operators like Airtel, Etisalat, Digicel, Tigo, America Movil, and Orange to facilitate the transfer of prepaid airtime to in-country subscribers from loved ones abroad in developed nations. Since there are no fees charged to the receiver or to the sender, the service has become tremendously popular among expatriates, especially in North America and the Middle East.

Prepay Nation’s partnership with Tagattitude complements their strong growth initiative into productized remittance opportunities that allow immigrant workers to buy goods and services for their family members back home on a real-time basis, rather than sending cash via conventional money remittance channels. . Their distribution network covers over 200,000 partner point of sale locations in North America, Europe, and the Middle East, serving millions of expatriate, immigrant, and prepaid wireless customers both banked and unbanked.

“With the increasing demand among members of various global diasporas for productized remittance opportunities to support their dependents back home, we are always looking for innovative methods to satisfy that need ,” explains Prepay Nation CEO, Anurag Jain, “Integrating with TagPay was a natural choice, as our existing customers who currently transfer airtime will now have the option to transfer value into a mobile wallet of a family member abroad. Through a single integration we have created new business opportunities for our partners and the mobile money operators using the TagPay platform.”

Over 20 existing mobile money services run on TagPay platforms and this number is steadily increasing. Companies like MobiPay (Namibia), MCash (Uganda), Celpaid (Ivory Coast), and HaitiPay (Haiti) use TagPay to offer valuable e-money services that promote financial inclusion in their countries. These services typically include account management (mobile wallet), mobile payment for retail purchases, person-to-person transfers, bill payment and more.

Thanks to the partnership between Tagattitude and Prepay Nation, all TagPay-based mobile money services can use Prepay Nation’s distribution network to facilitate transfers of value to their user base from loved ones all over the world.

“Building and maintaining an entire agent network from scratch is a major challenge and investment for any mobile money service,” explains Tagattitude CEO Yves Eonnet, “Plugging into existing networks is a great way to get around this however few networks are willing or able to do the technical integration that is often required to connect to a single service, particularly if that service is new on the market. Prepay Nation’s expertise enabled a seamless and rapid integration, which has produced a level of global connectivity that we’re excited about. Since all of Tagattitude’s clients use the same type of platform (TagPay), with just one integration Prepay Nation’s distribution network can process transactions seamlessly and securely for any TagPay-based service.”

Prepay Nation and Tagattitude will showcase their successfully completed technical integration October 6-10 on Prepay Nation’s booth #119 at the Money2020 event in Las Vegas.

With integration out of the way, Prepay Nation has begun discussions with Tagattitude’s clients who have had an overwhelmingly positive reaction to Prepay Nation’s offering.

“We are thrilled that Haitians living in the US will soon be able to send money home to a family member’s HaitiPay account just by going to a retail outlet connected to the Prepay Nation platform,” shared HaitiPay CEO Pascale Elie, “This new service will boost usage and adoption of HaitiPay. International remittances has always been part of our vision and with Prepay Nation is will be possible to offer this much sooner than we had hoped.”

Though there are regulatory, business, and other considerations to take into account, it is expected that HaitiPay and many other TagPay-based mobile money services will soon be available via Prepay Nation’s distribution network.

Prepay Nation and HAY United Join to Bring International Mobile Top-Up to Kruidvat and Trekpleister Drug Stores in The Netherlands

Digicel and Telesur prepaid international airtime now available at 930 locations nationwide.

Berwyn, PA (USA), September 17, 2013 — Prepay Nation, a leading provider of cross-border micropayments and prepaid mobile airtime transfers, and their partner in the Netherlands, HAY United have launched international mobile top-up via Kruidvat and Trekpleister drugstores across the country.

For the initial launch of the distribution partnership, Prepay Nation is offering instant prepaid airtime refills for Digicel and Telesur phones in Suriname, allowing the estimated 350,000 Suriname expatriates living in The Netherlands the opportunity to top-up the phones of their loved ones back home. Customers can buy 10EUR or 25EUR vouchers in any Kruidvat or Trekpleister store, and use them to send that value home in the form of airtime.

As an added bonus exclusively for Digicel subscribers, during the initial launch period the recipients in Surinam will receive double the voucher amount purchased by customers in the Netherlands; a limited number of customers will also receive a free gift.

The two national drugstore chains have a combined footprint of 930 locations, and are prime shopping spots for members of the Surinamese diaspora. The selection of targeted IMTU offerings available in-store will be broadened over time, bringing steadily increasing value to the entire distribution chain, from carrier through customer.

Hans Lute, COO of Digicel in Surinam, called the launch an excellent opportunity. “Bringing international mobile top-ups to some of the most convenient and popular locations in the Netherlands is a fantastic chance, not only to broaden our distribution, but also to connect the residents of Suriname to one of the largest Surinamese expatriate populations in the world,” Gopaul said. “Our goal at Digicel is to keep people connected, and we’re thrilled to be doing that here with Prepay Nation and HAY United.”

“This is just the beginning of a strong partnership,” said Remco Nederpel, CEO of HAY United. “This distribution agreement has the potential to grow dramatically in scale, offering top-ups from a wide variety of international mobile brands to every diaspora in the Netherlands. We are pleased to start on this journey with Kruidvat and Trekpleister, and are excited to see it grow.”

nGen VidCom LLC, a global leader in converged video and collaborations services, today announced a new, strategic alliance with Vision Telecommunications Technologies Nigeria, a leading telecommunications hardware and services company, to bring a high speed video collaboration gateway from Nigeria to North America.

“All businesses rely upon web based collaboration to conduct business in this rapidly changing economy. “nGen’s GML solution combines collaboration, true video conferencing and large scale streaming all within a single service” said Tom Clark, CEO of nGen VidCom LLC. “Our alliance with Vision Telecommunications Technologies Nigeria will allow both firms to provide full converged video collaboration communications with no latency or loss of quality between the continents”.

GlobalMeetLive is nGen’s cloud-based converged cloud based collaboration solution that replaces existing collaboration services by combining HD Video Conferencing, web Collaboration and interactive streaming in one solution.
