Connect with Leaders in the Prepaid Services Industry


The Prepaid Press Expo, now in its eighth successful year, will be held at Planet Hollywood, Las Vegas, August 11-13. The event provides a forum for prepaid service providers, from all industry sectors, to connect in one space.

"As an enabler in the industry, being able to connect with so many vendors in one organized manner is both convenient and great for networking purposes," said Andrew Visser, Business Development Director, Ready Wireless, a white-label provider of Mobile Virtual Network Operator services.

Day One kicks off with a Keynote Address by Alok Deshpande, Chief Product Officer, Green Dot. Green Dot is a founding company in the General Purpose Reloadable Prepaid Card arena, and Deshpande led the team that built the company's mobile bank product, GoBank, an innovative banking service for the unbanked and underbanked.

Following the Keynote is "The New Face of Prepaid: Mobile Wallets, Alternative Banking and Telecom Mix it Up." Ben Jackson, Director, Prepaid Advisory Service, Mercator Advisory Group, will moderate a vibrant discussion with prepaid leaders, including Alok Deshpande, Green Dot; Kaan Kilik, Pinsight Media+ (powered by Sprint); and Patrick Williams, Visa.



Content ranges from prepaid long distance and mobile top-up to prepaid program management and merchant services. Sessions will include representatives from companies with expertise in the prepaid market and financial mobility platforms, including: CashStar, Danal, IDT, First Data, InComm (News - Alert), NBPCA, NetworkIP, Prepay Nation, TransferTo, Wipit, Visa.

Panel discussions will focus on alternative banking services alongside telecom services; prepaid platforms; marketing to Hispanics; and the magic of digital gift cards. A panel will be devoted to MVNOs, discussing the role they play in a mature prepaid wireless market.


"As convergence shapes the industry, tppEXPO brings together the two drivers in prepaid, payments and telecom, in a way that no other conference does," said Jackson.

In addition to 70+ Exhibitors, tppEXPO offers attendees floor-sponsored events, including Happy Hour and Welcome Brunch.
