Shifting to electronic distribution to reduce costs and eliminate fraud
In today's mobile arena, prepaid programs are the fastest growing segment in the wireless industry. About 60% of the world’s 1.1 billion mobile subscribers prepay their wireless service. Furthermore, according to a Global Mobile Prepaid Strategies and Forecasts (2003) report, by the end of 2010 it is forecasted that there will be 1.5 billion prepaid mobile phone customers, generating over $240-billion per year in revenue.
As the popularity of these programs rises, mobile operators need a secure and reliable method to top-up or replenish prepaid airtime for these subscribers. Electronic distribution methods have far surpassed the voucher, or card-based, methods which were costly, requiring manufacturing and inventory for both the mobile operator and the retailer.
As the largest provider of prepaid top-up, Euronet can help mobile operators take advantage of electronic distribution of prepaid airtime via point-of-sale (POS) terminals, ATMs and directly from mobile handsets. Customers will appreciate the innovative and convenient method of topping up their prepaid phone. Retailers also appreciate the benefits of electronic distribution, making adoption rates quick.
Euronet's Prepaid division encompasses seven international subsidiaries —
e-pay, transact, PaySpot, Movilcarga, TeleRecarga, Brodus Romania and ATX (INGEVOUCHER) — offering services in 14 countries and processing approximately 54 million prepaid transactions per month. Combined, Euronet has direct relationships with 130 mobile operators and provides airtime PINs for several national and regional networks around the world.
