InComm and MOL are targeting a mid-2014 launch with the first POSA cards to be available in Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand.
"InComm is delighted to have partnered with MOL in what is a significant potential POSA market," said Frank Monaco, senior vice president and general manager international at InComm. "We are committed to working with MOL to provide consumers a simple and secure shopping experience."
InComm's POSA technology allows retailers to activate prepaid cards at the point-of-sale, eliminating the risk and cumbersome control procedures required for maintaining an inventory of value-bearing cards. The technology also allows prepaid cards to be displayed for sale with a reduced risk of theft and shrinkage. Using this POSA technology, card issuers also have the valuable opportunity to leverage card design in marketing the cards.
"MOL is excited to partner with InComm, one of the leading marketers, distributors and technology innovators of stored-value gift and prepaid solutions globally," said Ganesh Kumar Bangah, MOL Global's Group CEO. "The launch of POSA cards in these territories will certainly provide value-add and benefits to MOL's existing and future partners in the region."
