CHARGE Anywhere, a mobile payment app and payment gateway solutions provider, is entering a new partnership with Valladares Molina & Asociados (VM&A), a consulting firm specialised in the development and promotion of mobile solutions in Central America (view press release). Through the agreement, VM&A will promote and create awareness within the countries’ banking industries of the business potential of adopting mobile payments in the region.

“Central America is a fertile ground for the adoption of mobile payments,” said Luis Valladares, VM&A’s General Director. “Mobile penetration in Latin America and the Caribbean is over 94% and well above the world average of 76%. In Central America, countries like El Salvador and Honduras have passed the 100% penetration milestone. Our clients are looking to incorporate many of their business processes into mobile payments being on the top of their list.”

Last year CHARGE Anywhere was voted the Mobile Solution Provider of the Year at the 5^th Annual Mobile Banking and Emerging Technology Summit, hosted by Bank Technology News.
