Payvia, the online and mobile payments company, revealed a recent partnership with tech company, Mobile-XL, to launch a new technology that customers can use to buy digital goods and services with mobile prepaid carrier airtime, reported BankCreditNews.
African and Indian customers with access to Internet services such as social media, news and games can use the payment platform during the mobile checkout point without having to submit their bank account or credit card information.
