Why Zoompass Could be a Marketer’s Dream

If you work on the possibility of one phone per user, then the numbers add up (although, like any new product, essentially a guesstimate).And if you're out and you need to pay for something, most people always have a phone with them so it's really convenient. A prepaid credit card is an alternative but these can often be expensive with monthly upkeep fees on some of them.

I don't think there are 21 million potential users, but rather 21 million phones out there, so that's an overestimate. "And because Zoompass uses its own money account to store funds, nothing need come from your own bank account."Are you saying that this is an advantage? Although they can make it convenient, it seems annoying to now have to manage yet another "bank account". IMO, the strongest part of the product today is the free prepaid reloadable Mastercard.

Another example of who advancing mobile technology

My colleagues and I discuss the need for something like Zoompass all the time, like the ability to split a bill amongst friends and especially the opt-in recommendation service.

One of the companies I work with, Touchpoint Technologies, provides opt-in direct marketing for small businesses and it would be great to be able to build a network of participating merchants and integrate a mobile device payment option. It will be interesting to see if Zoompass is used in that way.

Thanks for the article! When is the U.S. launch?

Mobile phones & finance go together great and is the way of the future. This is a brilliant idea and financial institutions are working hard on finding ways to securely implement the mobile technology with their systems.

Lots of great "tests" out there. I know my company is working on a new technology to combine these two models as well.

Who wins? The consumer.

This is why I like your site, Danny - always thinking creatively.

Thanks for the post. Disclosure: I'm part of the TFC team working with EnStream to launch Zoompass.

As you say, it's early days but we're looking forward to receiving feedback from people so we can help to make Zoompass even better!

Now that is proof that monitoring social media works. Very nice response, Zoompass :)

What it then allows you to do is to receive or send money, as well as make purchases, check your balance and more.
