VoiceCash issues Germany's first Prepaid MasterCard twin-card

VoiceCash revolutionizes cross-border money sharing

Munich, October 28, 2009 [VC281009E]. The International VoiceCash Group specializes in international mobile money transfer. The company launches a prepaid MasterCard twin-card, the blauworld Prepaid MasterCard, issued by Newcastle Building Society, for the German market. It can be used to pay for anything at over 28 million locations worldwide where MasterCard is accepted including retail and online shops, as well as other online purchases made through the internet. In addition it enables the holder to access cash at over 1.5 million ATMs located across 210 countries worldwide.

Share money worldwide with the Prepaid MasterCard card
The VoiceCash Group has established an innovation for the German market: Germany's first prepaid twin-card for cashless payments. The blauworld twin-card of the VoiceCash Group enables the international sharing of money. Customers will receive 2 cards; a main card for their own use and a partner card for the recipient of money abroad. Thus the VoiceCash solution helps make the lives of all people more convenient that need to share money with friends and family members.

VoiceCash puts G8 claims into action: safe, fast and inexpensive
Anyone living in Germany and supporting family, relatives or friends abroad can benefit from the VoiceCash solution. With the prepaid MasterCard cards money can be assigned from the main card to the partner card. The recipients can immediately use the money. The VoiceCash Prepaid MasterCard cards can be managed online, via mobile phone SMS commands, and even with a certified voice biometrics program (VoiceTrust).
At their summit in July 2008, the leaders of the G8 decided to encourage benefit payments for family support and to reduce existing barriers to international money transfer. In 2007 alone, migrants all around the world sent some 316 billion euro to their countries of origin. Thus remittances already exceed official development assistances and are part of the economic progress in the home countries of migrants.
