After the success of this year's Prepaid Awards which took place last month in London, Ukash, the global e-money network, has chosen to take up the prestigious headline sponsorship position for the coming year, culminating in the Awards event in October 2011.
Ukash has spent the past 5 years developing a global network of physical cash loading points for the prepaid industry. This enables Issuers, Processors and Programme Managers to look beyond the US and UK markets, confident that cash loading is fully catered for in 33 Countries, 16 currencies and through 420,000 convenient points of sale.
Both through the Ukash MasterCard® rePower™ relationship and the ever popular Ukash voucher scheme, Ukash's commitment to the prepaid industry and now also to the Prepaid Awards highlights the company's ambition to being the natural, programme-neutral, cash loading partner of choice.
The Prepaid Awards, which was founded in 2008 and now attracts over 400 industry leaders, highlights the achievements of the fast-growing prepaid market and celebrates innovation and best practice within this dynamic industry.
The Prepaid Awards' scope and professional integrity were key to attracting Ukash, which values the Awards' neutral approach, international scope and reputation for excellence. Reflecting the neutrality of the awards, Ukash has decided not to enter itself for any Awards nominations.
Paul Coxhill, Marketing Director for Ukash explained, "The Prepaid Awards is going from strength to strength and is recognised in the industry as a key event for leaders in the prepaid industry. We are excited to be the headline sponsor at the Prepaid Awards 2011 as its presence and significance grows, and we look forward to hosting Europe's elite at the awards ceremony next October."
Emma Armstrong, Events Producer at the Prepaid Awards, commented, "We are excited about Ukash taking this lead role in sponsoring the Prepaid Awards 2011, which reflects Ukash's commitment to the prepaid industry and their aspiration to further enhance their global presence.
The Prepaid Awards will be held in London, October 2011; more information will made available in the New Year.":pimp
