Revenue from SmartTrans’ operations in China to the end of April 2015

SmartTrans attributes the majority of its ongoing revenue growth in China to the Direct Carrier Billing arrangement that it has in place with China Mobile, now operating in major provinces including Guangdong, Jiangsu and Sichuan, with more expected to follow soon.

The Company has also expanded the range of apps and content available to consumers via the SmartPay platform across a variety of channels and this has helped to deliver revenue growth of 19% from the previous month. Over 35% of the revenue in April is from recurring subscription revenue, which involves minimal ongoing cost to SmartTrans.

SmartTrans Managing Director, Bryan Carr, stated: “This is a fantastic result for SmartTrans and one that reaffirms our decision to maintain a focus on growing the SmartPay platform as our key revenue driver.”

“We still believe that there is much potential upside here and accordingly we will continue this focus. We expect to announce the expansion of the Direct Carrier billing partnership with China Mobile into new provinces, along with a number of other exciting initiatives, in the coming weeks.”
