ANZ sells Cambodian mobile payments firm WING |
|
Australia and New Zealand Banking Group (ANZ) has sold its Cambodian mobile
payments company WING to Inter Logistics, parent company of the Mobile Refresh
payments business.
WING, launched in January 2009, offers transactions in both USD and KHR and
is accessible through a nationwide service across six mobile network operators
in Cambodia.
ANZ CEO South and South East Asia Mark Robinson said that they are proud to
have established WING as the first mobile payments service for Cambodia. It has
attracted over 350,000 customers, bringing them access to financial services
previously unavailable.
"As we are increasingly focusing ANZ Cambodia on the corporate and
upper end retail segments however it makes greater sense for WING to join with
Mobile Refresh given its demonstrated track record and ongoing investment in
mobile payments," added Robinson.
The transaction is not material to ANZ and the sale terms are confidential.
