Since launch in 2005 Ukash has become a globally-recognised
payment method that enables online transactions using cash,
providing freedom from credit and debit card fraud, repudiations
and charge-backs, and protecting personal identity. Companies
benefit from accepting Ukash because we open up new markets to
which they can sell their goods and services online. Many people
don't have credit or debit cards, or even bank accounts, and some
are simply reluctant to give their financial details online.
Consumers around the world enjoy using Ukash because it is easy
and there are no age restrictions. No credit or debit cards are
needed and they don't even have to share any personal or financial
details.
In 2008, Ukash established a strategic partnership with South
African payments giant Blue Label Telecoms to furhter develop the
brand's services around the world.
