PayPoint Romania, one of the main cash payment operators in Romania, has announced that it has signed another three new agreements for bill collection. The new clients are electricity providers Electrica Furnizare Muntenia Nord and Electrica Furnizare Transilvania Nord and mobile operator Vodafone Romania.

The new agreements allow customers of the three companies to pay their bills and monthly installments for credit or insurance services in cash, by using the PayPoint Romania POS network in convenience stores across the country. Through the PayPoint network, consumers benefit from quick and easy access to cash payment services at no aditional cost.

The announcement cames just a week after PayPoint Romania announced the signing of five new clients; four for bill payments – Apa Nova, Electrica Furnizare Transilvania Sud, EOS KSI România, Petrom Distributie Gaze SRL Bucharest – and GE Money for payment of consumer credit installments. Electrica Furnizare Muntenia Nord and Electrica Furnizare Transilvania Nord are two of the three businesses of Electrica SA, the main electricity services provider in Romania.

Electrica Furnizare Muntenia Nord provides services for the counties of Braila, Buzau, Vrancea, Galati and Targoviste, while Electrica Furnizare Transilvania Nord provides electricity for the Bihor, Cluj, Maramures, Satu Mare, Salaj and Bistrita-Nasaud counties.

Vodafone Romania is part of Vodafone Group plc, the largest mobile operator in the world, with operations in 27 countries and 40 partner mobile networks.

Since the launch of its bill payment service under the PayPoint brand in August 2008, PayPoint Romania has built an extensive portfolio of clients across a diverse range of service sectors, including utilities, insurance, cable TV and mobile telecoms. Other PayPoint clients in Romania are E.ON Gaz Romania, E.ON Furnizare Moldova, Allianz Tiriac, Enel Energie Doborgea and Banat, Romtelecom, UPC Romania, Telemobil and GDF Suez Energy Romania.

PayPoint also offers top-up services for all mobile operators (Cosmote, Orange, Vodafone, Zapp), for landline operators providing international calls and for Internet Service Providers. PayPoint clients in this sector include EasyComm, Nobel and Worldtelecom (Number One). For Focusat, PayPoint provides electronic recharge vouchers for DTH service users.

At the end of March 2009, PayPoint had 5,702 terminals in Romania, up 42% compared to March 2008. 2,000 of the terminals were PayPoint branded.
