QPAGOS Self-Service Kiosks Expand INPAMEX Nationwide Money Transfer Coverage

MEXICO CITY, MEXICO, Dec. 18, 2017 --

QPAGOS (OTCQB: QPAG), a U.S.-based provider of digital payment services for cash-based and unbanked consumers in Mexico, announced the launch of Mexico domestic money transfers in its growing kiosk-based electronic payment services platform. 

In association with INSTANT PAY DE MEXICO SA DE CV (INPAMEX), with over 1,500 pay-out locations throughout Mexico, including over 300 locations of the well-known Chedraui supermarket chain, plus pharmacy and other retail chains, QPAGOS kiosks are now enabled to facilitate domestic cash-to-cash and cash-to-account money transfers.

Leveraging its over 1,500 international pay-out locations, INPAMEX’s domestic money transfer origination is now also available at QPAGOS over 700 kiosks throughout Mexico, expanding the ability of families to support each other with instantly available wire transfers to INPAMEX locations nationwide.

"We are very excited to be partnering with QPAGOS. We believe their self-service kiosks are ideal to help INPAMEX expand its national coverage. Intra-Mexico family transfers are growing fast in Mexico as family members relocate to take advantage of work opportunities elsewhere in the country," said Luis René Gonzalez, Director General of INPAMEX. (CEMLA “Centro de Estudios Monetarios Latinoamericanos” estimated in 2012 a universe of over 12 million beneficiaries and a potential 6 million domestic transfers per month.)

Stated Gastón Pereira, CEO and President of QPAGOS: "Adding INPAMEX transfers to our expanding menu of over 150 payment services fits perfectly with our strategy to offer the Mexican consumer access to the basic electronic payments they need monthly. Sending money to a family member is a very welcomed addition to our platform. We look forward to a very successful relationship with INPAMEX.”
