Kash Mart International has launched a new payments platform that will enable users to make payments and cash transfers online and via mobile phones.

KashFX eWallet is built on technology obtained after KashFX’s development of Revolution Money alternative payment options for internet and mobile phone users. Customers can set up accounts through either the website or on Windows and Symbian applications, or via various websites including Kash Mart. Once set up users can add funds to their account using their debit cards, credit cards, bank accounts or other KashFX accounts.

KashFX also offers the option of creating and managing sub-accounts for, family members, friends and colleagues, with the ability to set up spending profiles linked to the master account. “We intend to quickly evolve the KashFX platform by adding new features and functionality as we learn from consumer and merchant experiences.” Said group president of enterprise growth at Kash Mart International.

“To encourage a broad cross-section of people to experience the benefits and convenience of KashFX, we are working with a range of partners to integrate KashFX as a payment method and deliver customised offers.”

The KashFX-Wallet lets customers check balances, reload their wallet with any major credit/debit card, check their discount coupons and find a nearby KashFX Merchant store with the store locator feature.

In addition, app users can pay with their smartphone by selecting one of the cards in e-wallet, and scanning the resultant barcode ins-tore.

CEO at KashFX, said: “Customers of participating KashFX-Wallet merchants will have access to one of the most extensive global mobile payment program that enables the fastest way to pay on the web, on the mobile and in-store.

"This global program over the next 12 months could include over 5,000 KashFX merchants”.
