C-SAM signs partnership with Dai Nippon to expand mobile payments presence in Asia

Telecom Lead Asia: C-SAM has signed a partnership with Dai Nippon Printing (DNP) to expand their mobile payments presence in Asia.

The agreement enables the MTP-enabled TSM solution to be deployed in more than 30 Asia-Pacific markets.

The main benefit will be for Asian mobile operators, retailers and banks, healthcare companies and other service providers as the joint C-SAM/DNP solution provides flexible mobile wallet technology to offer innovative mobile services, such as payment, offers, coupons, banking, loyalty, healthcare and other rich value‑added services.

“Through co-marketing in Asia-Pacific market by C-SAM and DNP, we expect that our Japanese corporate customers, C-SAM, and DNP will succeed together to build a new relationship to expand into Asia-Pacific market,” said Sakae Hikita, managing director of DNP.

C-SAM’s MTP addresses the complexities of managing a range of mobile devices and operating systems, secure elements, and connections to third-party systems for conducting secure NFC and/or barcode transactions that are associated with mobile payments, rewards, coupons, ticketing and related services.

“The agreement to expand our global mobile services agreement with DNP is a natural extension of the very successful partnering that we have done together in Japan and globally with our integrated mobile wallet solution. We look forward to deepening our collaboration with DNP, further strengthening DNP’s portfolio of applications and services, and growing DNP’s market leadership position throughout the Asia-Pacific region,” said Felix Marx, CEO of C-SAM.

ISIS, the US-based joint venture between AT&T Mobility, T-Mobile USA and Verizon Wireless, has already selected C-SAM’s Mobile Transaction Platform and SDK for its mobile wallet offering.

In addition, MasterCard selected the platform to provide a white-label mobile wallet solution that enables seamless integration with MasterCard’s pre-paid platform, offers, PayPass Wallet Services and rich informational services.

The agreement with DNP reflects the scalable capabilities of C-SAM’s MTP to roll out interoperable mobile wallet services across global markets and deliver the highest standard of customer experience to ensure brand differentiation.
