It also recently launched its mobile app with many of the same services as the kiosks, so now smartphone users can make payments conveniently from their phones by uploading cash at QPAGOS– kiosks.

The proprietary platform is new and unique in Mexico yet proven in the U.S., Russia, Eastern Europe, Asia and South America, at over 300,000 points of sale.

QPAGOS– primary source of revenue is percentage fees received from service providers like mobile operators for collecting billing payments from consumers.

QPAGOS– first focus has been on Mexico–s robust mobile phone sector, with over 107 million mobile subscribers, 88% of which are under prepaid plans. In 2014, PwC Telecom, estimated its prepaid cell phone revenue annual market to be over $12 billion. ()

The company has 33 full time engineering, sales and administrative staff at its operations facility in Mexico City.
