Hernando Rubio, Co-founder and CEO of MOViiRed said “In Colombia, people need to have a bank account or credit card to make digital payments online, leaving majority of Colombians out of the digital payments revolution. We are trying to change this picture with MOVii which provided access to digital financial services to all Colombians without any bias. With MOVii any Colombian, banked or unbanked, can make all kind of payments securely, easily and without any cost from their mobile phone. Our goal is to bring digital financial service to the masses and Comviva mobiquity® Money is the right technology platform partner to achieve that aim.”
