Emida's Global Prepayment Technology Augments the Payment Process for Voxox Users and Extends Voxox's Global Reach
SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwired - Dec 17, 2013) - Voxox®, the most comprehensive cloud-based rich communication service for consumers and businesses, today announced a partnership with Emida, a leader in the global prepayment and value transfer market, to enhance its mobile payment options for users. As a result, Emida will process and manage account refill transactions and mobile wallet payments from customers who prepay for the use of Voxox, offering an alternative to the traditional method of payment via credit card. The addition of this new payment practice extends Voxox's reach to parts of the world where credit cards are not ubiquitous.
"Most subscribers around the world prefer to use cash to top-up their accounts and prepay for the use of mobile applications. Partnering with Emida enables Voxox to provide the most common way for users to purchase our services, further extending the reach of our unified cloud communications application," said Bryan Hertz, CEO, Voxox. "At Voxox, our mission is to simplify and enhance the way people communicate, and our new partnership with Emida enables us to meet this goal."
In addition to delivering diverse payment options, the strategic alliance also makes Voxox available throughout Emida's extensive distribution network of over 54,000 retail points, including self-service kiosks and retail convenience stores. Emida's self-service kiosks offer consumers the option to automatically refill or apply credit toward the purchase of Voxox minutes or products.
"Voxox's robust service, which enables users to connect with anyone across any type of device, is enhancing the way users communicate across the globe. This makes them an ideal partner as our distribution network covers 37 countries," said David Kirtman, CEO, Emida. "Our extensive distribution channels and cash-in / cash-out point of sale technology, paired with Voxox's feature-rich application and strong mobile operator relationships, create a mutually beneficial partnership."
Voxox will offer and promote Emida's financial service offerings to its robust partner network of service providers. In turn, Emida will promote and sell Voxox throughout its distribution channel consisting of dealers, distributors, merchants, retailers, and points of sale. A truly collaborative alliance, both companies will work together in the distribution, promotion and sale of their collective products and services.
Voxox is the only OTT messaging service available that provides users with a way to break down the walls of the ever-growing collection of mobile messaging silos. Users of Voxox's mobile and desktop solutions can communicate with other Voxox users for free. They can also send messages and make affordable calls to anyone not already using Voxox via their free Voxox phone number. For more information, please visit: www.voxox.com.
