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

The growth of the SmartPay platform is attributed to a number of key drivers, most notably the expanded roll out of SmartTrans’ Direct carrier billing agreements with China Mobile into more provinces, which has led to a growing number of new customers contributing to the revenue sources.

There is also greater demand and uptake by Chinese consumers for apps and content available via SmartPay, as well as an increasing number of third party providers seeking to use it as means to potentially bill a huge audience.

SmartTrans Managing Director, Bryan Carr, stated: “The continuing top line revenue growth from the SmartPay platform is a direct result of the focus we have had and the investment we have made in this business division.”

“The SmartPay platform is now a key source of revenue for SmartTrans and we still see significant unlocked potential here. Accordingly, we will continue our strategy of targeted investment to ensure that we maintain and enhance our position in the market place while keeping our cost base low in order to boost the bottom line.”

“The ongoing roll out and expansion of the payment system with China Mobile is a major endorsement for our technology, and we are confident that this offering will be extended to several more key regions in the near term.”

“We have three priorities to continue to grow revenue from SmartPay in the near term – expand the Direct Carrier billing partnership with China Mobile into new provinces, secure more third party billing agreements with app developers and content providers and bring existing third party agreements with CITS and Ta Kung Pao online. We look forward to updating shareholders as we progress these and other opportunities.”
