“Prepaid is changing the way we use financial resources. It offers consumers that may or may not have a bank account an avenue to purchase goods and services... It is particularly impacting the cellular industry and will for some time to come. I recommend this conference to retailers interested in understanding how this industry can bring in more customers and to better understand the benefits it offers to their customers.”
– Peggy Kirkendall, President, Savvy-e, Inc.
“Last year’s Expo was an overwhelming success for Lunex Telecom. This was a well-organized event with insightful, content-driven workshops. The addition of The Financial Mobility Summit elevated the level of attendees. tppEXPO will enhance your company’s visibility within the industry, grow your business and engage in a vibrant community of top-tier prepaid suppliers.”
– Darren Lu, President, Lunex Telecom & Event Sponsor
The prepaid industry has grown in several distinct branches - calling cards, wireless, gift cards, and open loop payments. These diverse sectors converge at the retail level, and today, on any consumer’s handheld device, yet these segments are still approached as different industries. While other events tout “convergence,” The Prepaid Press Expo is the only trade event today that focuses on the convergence of all prepaid products and services.
As a professional in the prepaid services industry, you no longer have to decide between different events that cover just part of the industry.
tppEXPO is the must-attend event for anyone involved in producing or selling prepaid services.
