Win Kid Carson’s Cash with Zoompass!

Tuesday, March 30th, 2010

In March Zoompass was a hot topic on the Kid Carson Morning Show, on The Beat 94.5 FM in Vancouver.  Kid Carson was Zooming money away live on the air!  To participate listeners had to register for Zoompass and send Kid Carson a money request for $50.  A total of twenty-one $50 money requests from listeners were “accepted” and one grand prize of $1000 was also given away.   Kid Carson received overwhelming response from listeners: “Hey!  I TOTALLY just won Kid’s Cash this morning!  It made my morning and I just wanted to say thanks!!”  Well, you’re TOTALLY welcome Keery – it was our pleasure!  Now get Zooming!

Shaheen of Delta B.C. was the lucky winner of the $1000 grand prize: “I didn’t believe it till I heard my voicemail on the radio and was like OH MY GOD!” says Shaheen.  “I was just aiming for the $50 but I’ll take the $1000!”  Imagine if she had aimed a little higher or answered the phone.

The Zoompass Tag and your Mobile Phone: All you need to Make Purchases

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

The Zoompass TagToday we’re excited to announce a monumental development to Zoompass: the launch of the Zoompass Tag!

The Zoompass Tag is a wireless payment device designed in the form of a sticker that can be attached to a mobile phone.  Now, select Zoompass users will need only their mobile phone with the Zoompass Tag to access their mobile cash account and make purchases at retail stores.  Zoompass users will be able to simply tap their phones on a contactless reader at point of sale to make purchases – just like a PayPass-enabled credit card.  We’re one step closer to allowing Zoompass users to forget their wallets at home – on purpose!

As Robin Dua, President of EnStream says, “All Zoompass users will soon be able to pay for their morning coffee, gas at the pump, and launch at a fast-food restaurant with a quick tap of their phone.”

This trial is being offered to select Zoompass users to evaluate the many aspects of the mobile payment experience and shape the way Canadians pay for goods and services in the future.  We’re excited to be one step closer to our goal of enabling every Canadian access to their wallet through an integrated, rich and user-friendly interface anywhere, anytime, safely and securely on their mobile phone.
