With the upcoming integration of the company's advanced Blockchain E-Wallet, the company will be able to provide users with an

worldwide, at a reasonable cost, without worrying about surcharges or any additional charges that might be levied by banks.
Sid Rajeev, Analyst with Fundamental Research, stated: "With the incorporation of blockchain technology into Upco Mobile, we
believe that Upco has the potential to be a disruptive offering in the mobile payments processing space."
According to Statista, in 2018, global transaction volume in the mobile point-of-sale payments space is expected to reach
US$391.44 billion, with an average transaction value per user of $731.39.
Other benefits include:
-
worldwide access to initiate long distance calls with very low calling rates: up to 40% less expensive than any incumbent
mobile operator.
-
incoming international calls will not incur roaming costs.
-
ability to transfer funds to other Upco users without additional costs.
-
through algorithms which create higher compression, users can chat and use video features faster with a higher quality of
voice and images while using significantly less data than leading competitors.
Andrea Pagani, CEO, stated: "The Upco App with its forthcoming E-Wallet will align perfectly with how payments across the
world are changing into digital formats. Our App will facilitate commerce in a number of important ways and allow our European
users to be able to transfer funds to friends and relatives seamlessly and instantly."
In addition to messaging and VoIP services, the company's new cross-platform smartphone application will offer transaction
processing, a service not available with SKYPE or WhatsApp.
