Flint to offer exciting ‘Mobile Remittance’ services with pending acquisition.
Technology acquisition will allow users to transfer money directly from their Cell phones.
OVERLAND PARK, KANSAS — September 29, 2010 — Flint Telecom Group, Inc. (http://www.flinttelecomgroup.com) (FLTT.OB), a Telecom Technology and Services Organization, announces today that it is nearing completion of the due diligence process to acquire 100% of a U.S. based International Remittance Company. Following the successful completion of the necessary due diligence which is already underway, the transaction is expected to close within the next 30 days.
This acquisition will allow Flint Telecom to access the international market of mobile money transfer, which Juniper Research believes to be worth $65 Billion worldwide by 2014.
Eliminating the need and expense of money order transfers to foreign countries, Flint Telecom will establish a system of prepaid debit cards through its existing market outlets. This will allow people and businesses the ability to transfer money internationally using these cards or directly from their cell phones. The system is in complete compliance with domestic and international money laundering and counter-terrorism regulations.
The remittances are practically instantaneous and a cardholder can send funds 24/7 every day of the year directly to the recipient who can then can simply withdraw the funds from a local ATM where they live. The cards will also incorporate Flint’s existing wireless and international calling services on a single card with the aim of increasing customer retention and increasing overall profit margins for the group.
CEO, Vincent Browne said today: “We are excited with this latest development, as it opens valuable new revenue streams and strengthens our offerings to our existing customer groups. Targeted towards the demographic most likely to use these services first, initial marketing of this highly versatile product will be within our existing market outlets. Coupling this with our recent announcement of the signing of an LOI to acquire an international prepaid debit card company, will allow our customers to transfer money abroad directly from their cell phone if they wish without the inconvenience and high expense of traditional forms of money transfer. We see this as a major advancement for our technology and prepaid business groups and our growth into international markets.”
