Apliman Technologies & Creova Team Up to Deliver Mobile Money to Africell

Apliman Technologies and Creova jointly win trust of Africell and sign contract to deliver one of the most convenient Mobile Money solutions.

Beirut, Lebanon, February 10, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Mobile Money offers a speedy remittance channel for people to send and receive money efficiently, encouraging circulation of money nationwide and generating high revenues.

Striving to ensure customer satisfaction, Apliman Technologies and Creova present a secure and practical mobile money transfer solution, allowing people to send and receive money, nationwide, to friends and family who themselves may not have bank accounts. Consequently, it brings many unbanked customers under the formal financial system, and enables money transfers to break through rural areas which allows for economic growth in developing economies.

“Apliman Technologies is proud to team up with Creova, one of the major international players in Mobile Money. We are looking forward to a continuous and prosperous cooperation that will expand this technology into many other African countries, where it is becoming one of the most important money generating VAS services,” said Mr. Tarek Itani, Executive Director of Apliman Technologies.

According to a new report from Juniper Research, the global mobile money transfer market will grow beyond $65bn by 2014. The service mainly focuses on developing countries where users do not have access to banking services and use traditional means of payment instead, such as physically transporting the money or storing cash at home.

“Our solutions are at the forefront of the mobile payments industry,” said Ramzi el Fekih, CEO of Creova. “The Mobile Money service provides an innovative set of low cost financial solutions, proven to increase banking activities and create customer loyalty. It is easy-to-use, accessible, secure, and traceable. Creova is unique in providing innovative technology, managed services, and go-to-market partnership models to ensure success of the Mobile Money service.

“We believe Apliman is the right partner for Creova in the region, and our expectations on the current and future projects that will arise from our partnership are very high. This is the first of many more that will surely follow.”
