BilltoBill为微软产品销售提供网上支付 |
Melbourne, Australia, July 31, 2006 – BilltoBill Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of
Australian online payments solutions provider, Oriel Communications Limited (ASX: OCO) has
entered into an agreement to supply payment services to Sonopress, a subsidiary of Arvato AG
(a Bertelsmann company) and Microsoft in China.
Microsoft has selected BilltoBill as its exclusive payment provider in China to work with
Sonopress who is Microsoft’s courseware distributor in China. BilltoBill will process local debit
and credit cards and bank transfers from any bank in China as well as Visa and MasterCard.
Oriel’s CEO, Martijn Hovinga, said: “We are extremely excited that Microsoft, through
Sonopress, has agreed to become a customer of BilltoBill. The software industry is a key
strategic target for BilltoBill, and the ability to secure Microsoft as a client is testimony that our
payment solution is well respected in China. We anticipate this agreement will raise our profile
enormously when targeting other prospective merchants across China.”
Over recent months, BilltoBill has increased personnel in Shanghai in the areas of customer
support, account management, software development and system technical operations to meet
the current and future requirements of customers such as Microsoft and Lenovo China. BilltoBill
has also strengthened its sales force to actively promote the BilltoBill service to future
customers.
"China is a rapidly developing e-commerce hotspot with broadband connections recently hitting 80 million. Oriel Communications through our subsidiary BilltoBill is well placed to tap into thesubsequent demand for online payment services,” said Mr Hovinga.
Potential revenues from the Sonopress/Microsoft deal cannot be determined at this time,
however BilltoBill Limited will disclose transaction volume performance once a sufficient period
of processing has taken place via the BilltoBill payment service, and ultimately a prediction of
future earnings.
Testing and integration of the BilltoBill payment system with Sonopress has been completed
and BilltoBill will commence processing transactions when advised by Sonopress and Microsoft.
