Mi-Pay and TransferTo team up to offer International Top Up worldwide

Leading international mobile money services provider Mi-Pay, has teamed up with TransferTo, a leading global mobile airtime network, to offer Operators and Service Providers new revenue streams from the sales of cross border mobile recharges from migrant workers, travellers and expatriates living abroad.

GlobalTopup (GTU) from Mi-Pay and the TransferTo service adds further innovation by enabling people living overseas to easily top up family and friends prepaid mobile phones throughout the region.

Mi-Pay and TransferTo do the rest -- making sure that recipients are notified of top up requests and handle the settlement and reconciliation with the various Operators.
