Attracting new merchants to utilise Charge to Mobile

Posted on by Andrea Putnam-Moorcroft

AIME is developing a website aimed at prospective merchants who want to find out more about the benefits of Charge to Mobile. The more new companies we can get utilising Charge to Mobile the more benefits for all those currently in the value chain.

We also hope this project will improve awareness amongst consumers and we will have a separate section to help inform and educate consumers.

This is a hugely important project and a key way to grow the industry.

We would like to invite all members to put themselves forward to be involved in this exciting project.  The initial sessions with spec out what needs to be said to businesses and the consumer.  AIME will develop the detailed content and design once the approach has been agreed.  The working party will be involved at each step in the process.

If you are interested in joining the team please put your name forward to Andrea by 24 February 2017.  We would like representatives from all relevant parts of the value chain.

We have already secured the domain name of charge2mobile.org.
