Source Financial Launches WikiPay Payment Network

LOS ANGELES, May 17, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Source Financial, Inc. (OTCQB: SRCF) ("Source Financial", or "the Company") today announces the availability of the WikiPay Payment Network at www.wikipay.com, a proprietary mobile and online cash-based money transfer and payment service ("WikiPay").  WikiPay enables all consumers, banked or unbanked, with any PC or mobile device to send money for $1.00 on any phone, anytime, anywhere. 

"We have succeeded in building the fastest, most efficient, secure and inexpensive payment network by eliminating the legacy that has plagued the US banking industry for decades," said Ted DeFeudis, President and CEO of Source Financial.  "We view today's launch as a major tipping point in the money transfer and payments industry, and are proud to be the leaders." 

WikiPay offers five critical consumer benefits necessary for mass adoption: Low Cost, Simplicity, Security, Compatibility and Privacy.

WikiPay is Low Cost

Users can sign up for free and send funds for a flat fee of $1.00. 

WikiPay is Simple

WikiPay offers an easy and straightforward experience, allowing users to make social payments without having to download additional software or acquire new hardware.  

WikiPay is Secure

WikiPay understands that security is the cornerstone of a successful payment network.  To that end, we adhere to the same strict standards as US national banks by employing the highest level of encryption, fraud prevention and authentication.

WikiPay is Compatible

WikiPay is compatible with existing payment technologies enabling transactions through a variety of payment networks (banks, ATMs, debit/credit cards, etc.).  Its compliance with US banking standards ensures reliable and secure authorization, processing and settlement for users, merchants and partners.

WikiPay is Private

WikiPay maintains very advanced physical, electronic and procedural safeguards that comply with federal regulations to guard its users' nonpublic personal information.  With WikiPay, consumers do not have to worry that their private information will be exposed to fraud or other security threats.

"Our payment network is second to none and was designed to allow the greatest ease of use and flexibility for all types of users, " said Marco Garibaldi, Source Financial, Chairman and CTO.  "WikiPay works on smartphones, dumb phones, tablets, desktop PCs or any device with Internet access. Neither payee nor payer needs extra devices or merchant accounts. WikiPay makes Square and all other credit card swipers obsolete.  WikiPay completely redefines how people pay or get paid."
