Ukash continues Latin American expansion with launch in Colombia
[241552]
Ukash, the world's fastest growing online cash-payments company,
continues its expansion into Latin America in 2010 with Ukash now
being issued in Colombia, in partnership with Titan, a leading
money transfer and exchange company of Colombia, through a deal
with eBizznet, an issuing partner of Ukash.
Consumers in Colombia can now purchase vouchers in Titan offices
in major cities such as Armenia, Barranquila, Bogota, Bucaramanga,
Cali, Cartagena, Cucuta, Dosquebradas, Manizales, Medellin,
Palmira, Pereira and Tulua, where Ukash vouchers are available in
denominations of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 50, 100, 250 and 500 EUR or
USD. Titan and eBizznet will now be looking to expand the Ukash
issuing network in Colombia through the recruitment of independent
top-up agencies in Colombia. With a unique 19-digit code from
Ukash, the consumer will then be able to shop, pay and play online
safely and without fear of credit card fraud.
Paul Coxhill, Marketing Director, Ukash, said: "As the
e-commerce market in Latin America is growing, Ukash has been
expanding its business, aiming to provide the huge potential
consumer base there with a more streamlined and easy to use
alternative payment method. We expect to roll out our cash payment
system in more points of sale across the country and make Ukash
available across even more countries in Latin America in the coming
weeks and months."
Titan and eBizznet management: "Ukash provides the unbanked or
cardless consumer in Colombia the opportunity to shop online in a
secure and safe manner and this will certainly contribute to the
development of the e-commerce in Colombia."
Globally, Ukash is available at more than 420,000 physical
issuing points and spans 31 countries. More information and exact
locations where Ukash is available in Colombia and across South
America is listed at www.ukash.com.
