Mobile payments and billing solutions company Billing Revolution has announced a partnership with Skout, a location-based dating company, to enable both mobile- and web-based transactions.
Under the terms of the agreement, Billing Revolution will provide its single-click payment solutions to simplify the consumer checkout experience for Skout users. The technology is designed so that individuals can safely and easily buy gifts or services through their web-enabled phones or computers, while taking full advantage of Skouts social dating applications.
As Skout seeks to maintain its lead as the mobile dating company in the US, we see Billing Revolution as a key contributor and strategic partner in this endeavor, says Skout CEO, Christian Wiklund. When it comes to mobile billing, they are unbeatable in implementation, affordability, and customer service.
Billing Revolutions single-click technology platform will handle the payment processing using credit or debit cards. Through a secure interface accessible on a mobile phone or over the web, Billing Revolution handles the billing, payments, and processing on the back end, enabling Skout to provide its network of customers with an easy way to sign up and pay for services and subscriptions. The companys technology currently works across all web-enabled handsets, carriers, and PCs and Billing Revolution accepts payments in more than 150 currencies worldwide.
The problem with most dating sites is that consumers dont have an easy way to purchase the items they want, and the checkout process actually serves as a deterrent to the dating process, says Michael Dulong, Co-founder and Senior Vice President of Business Development at Billing Revolution. Through our payment solutions, Skout is able to provide a simplified payment process that fosters gifting, and encourages interaction between Skouts mobile community of users.
