SAN DIEGO, April 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Global Payout, Inc. (OTC Pink: GOHE), the leading new multi-national Program Manager of B2B custom and conventional electronic payment solutions, announced today that it has advanced its competitive and comparative advantages by substantially expanding the geographic reach and the functionality of its proprietary MoneyTracTM Consolidated Payment Gateway (CPG) platform to the Philippines. Effective immediately, Global Payout can now provide CPG users with the ability to distribute payments to their associated accountholders and cardholders, employees, members, offshore workers or benefit recipients wherever they may be located in the world with direct funds transfer capability to any Filipino bank from their CPG account. As a result, a number of payment opportunities are now open to a large and important segment of the population.
The Philippines is one of the strongest (if not the strongest) overseas manpower generator for employers abroad. And Filipino workers are sought-after by foreign employers because of exceptional qualities that other foreign qualified nationals do not possess. As an example, Filipino companies who employ Overseas Foreign Workers (OFW) and contractors can now utilize the CPG secure interface to make mass payments that can be accessed immediately by their workers in real time. Because each worker is assigned their own individual CPG subaccount, the subaccount holder can then directly deposit into their bank account, make deposits to an existing VISA/MasterCard credit or bank debit card, and/or make deposits to other international and domestic prepaid cards offered by Global Payout. This makes it very convenient for those workers away from home to still have access to those transfer capabilities regardless of which country they are currently living or working in. The CPG payment platform enables the account holder or the cardholder to effect self-directed ACH payments to their bank accounts in the Philippines and most other OFAC compliant countries. Many other opportunities to facilitate payment capabilities to Filipinos also exist.
Jim Hancock, CEO, stated, "The Philippines is a major focus for the global expansion of our payment capabilities and the geographic reach of our MoneyTracTM Consolidated Payment Gateway. As we continue to focus our efforts on gaining global scale by expanding and connecting niche market opportunities all around the world, we cannot ignore the tremendous social value to individuals with financial services needs. Thanks to our MoneyTracTM payment platform, we are quickly establishing ourselves as one of the most viable and efficient payment solution by providing economies of scale for both small and large payment applications. We could not be more pleased with the reception our team and our products are receiving from mass payment customers and the traction we are gaining to reach the under-banked."
Bill Rochfort, President and VP of Sales, also commented, "The Philippines have a population of approximately 98 million people and there are over 10 million more Filipinos living around the world in 170 countries whom labeled as Overseas Filipino Workers. With nearly 3.4 million OFWs in America, 2 million in the Middle East, and over 1.6 million in Pacific Rim countries, the opportunity to provide financial services to 'unbanked' and 'under-banked' Filipinos is very significant. By providing mass payment services, payroll capabilities, ACH, prepaid instant issue debit cards, and easy to use money transfer and remittance capabilities, we are able to provide valuable access to financial services to a considerable percentage of the 2.5 billion unbanked and under-banked adults in the world. We consider the Philippines as pivotal to our growth," he concluded.
Global Payout adds the Philippines to a growing list of countries such as China, Malaysia, Canada, Germany, England and SEPA (Single Euro Payments Area) within the European Union (EU), as well as the current launch underway in Brazil and other countries in South America where consumers, businesses and organizations can access, manage, and transfer funds. Each of these countries and entities can take advantage of a vast number of additional features including: ACH, credit and bank debit cards, co-branding and private labeling, mass payments, payroll capabilities, government entitlement disbursements and prepaid cards. Global Payout also stated its intentions to continue growing the long list of functionality and geographic availability to its growing base of international users. Global Payout stated these new features and broadened reach for CPG account holders and MoneyTracTM card holders is a continual evolution of offering multiple ways to access and move your funds through a single provider.
