$5000 Richer for Parking Your Car?!?!

When Michael Perry of Vancouver followed his wife’s lead and got Zooming last month, little did he know it would make him $5000 richer.

Michael Perry, Grand Prize winner of the Zoom to Win $5000 Contest

 Well… today it did!

 ”OMG, what a great day this has turned out to be,” Michael said when he was made aware that he was the Grand Prize winner of the Zoom to Win $5000 Contest.

 Initially, Michael was primarily using Zoompass as a convenient way to pay parking meters with his Zoompass Prepaid MasterCard in Vancouver.  However, he now tells us he has removed all other credit cards from his wallet and uses Zoompass whenever and wherever he can.

 ”It is very convenient to use Zoompass on my iPhone to check my account balance on the go and to reload my account when necessary,” Michael added. “I would like to thank Zoompass for this wonderful prize and for the wonderful product they have brought to the Canadian Market.”

 Michael, you are welcome! Keep Zooming!

 Watch for details about the next Zoompass contest scheduled to launch in early April.

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

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.
