2D barcodes + Internet Mobile Payment + Social Networks = TMS PayWorld

TMS Republic will launch next week its Mobile Payment solution.

“TMS PayWorld” is a multi device payment solution which associates Social Network model to a Mobile Wallet and 2D barcodes technology. The solution is “open” (Telco’s independent) and can be used by all mobile subscribers anywhere anytime via GRPS, EDGE, 3G or WIFI networks.

MobiTMS; after the launching, a few weeks ago, of the Mobile Search Engine of 2D barcodes, which opens up the 2D barcode technology access to all the mobile Internet users without the need to download a reader application on mobile phones. MobiTMS announces today the launching in the Philippines (world capital of SMS and Mobile goods purchases) of a mobile payment solution, Telco’s independent, which associates a real time billing platform to a 2D barcodes solution to launch transactions and an account management platform accessible on mobile phones and/or social networks web pages via a widget developed with the Open Social platform.

This TMS payment solution allow TMS accountholders to launch a transaction on multi support (Print, Web or directly in a store) just using a TMS code or 2D barcode associated to a transaction web page accessible via connected devices (computer, mobile phone…). The user can purchases mobiles goods and download them in the same sequence (MobiTMS will offer access to a catalogue of more than 90,000 mobile goods including games). The solution also allows the user to pay for web services or virtual goods and to create a friends network to transfer and receive money.

“TMS PayWorld is based on the following principles: Invitations, Widgets, Friends networks, Purchases Cash back and Recommendations” said Frederick Saurat MobiTMS co-founder. “For the launching in the Philippines (to be followed by the US in January 08) TMS will offer invitations to open a TMS PW (PayWorld) account with money already in the account for the purchase of goods. The invitation will be offered via local media partners for example: MTV, Yehey, Print magazines, Social Networks… after that TMS accountholders can start to create his own network inviting friends to open a TMS account and during the first year he will share the invited friends cash back program based on the friends’ purchases”.

“The Cash back program and the recommendation system which allows a member who makes a purchase using the TMS PW solution to recommend his purchase automatically to his friend’s network (he just needs to click on the recommendation confirm button during the mobile purchase operation) represents a real motivation for the user to develop their friends network” added David Jacka, co-founder of MobiTMS. “It’s also the first payment platform built for multi device access and developed on Social Network principles”.

Show Time!

Bonjour
We are launching our “Big Baby” next weeks “TMS Mobile PayWorld” and in the same time we decided to launch our blog to have an interaction with the mobile users. This blog has the ambition to let the TMS community members be informed of all the news of our services and content partners that can be found in TMS Republic, but also about the evolution of the Mobile Planet in terms of new services and technologies.

We really believe that the Third Screen is in revolution (via the offer of high speed Internet access), and the Telco’s are in the same position as the Internet Web access providers 10 years ago in the sense that by offering internet access they opened the door of mobile subscriber access to new players and lost the exclusive control of the user base (some handset manufacturers as NOKIA understood this and anticipate the future by going into mobile entertainment business). The entrance of new players in the business will offer many new applications for the benefit of the consumers.

The TMS suite of Internet Mobile Services has the ambition to participate in this revolution and we think that The TMS Mobile payment solution “TMS Mobile Payworld”, the first Telco’s independent solution which includes a real time mobile billing platform and 2D barcodes technology, is one of the answers to the “Mobile Generation” expectations in terms of “user friendly and worldwide mobile payment solution”. We hope that TMS Mobile PayWorld become an everyday convenient payment method adopted.
And in your side don't stay "watching the paint dry", participate to the revolution via your comments and your suggestions.
