"mopay is by far the easiest way of paying online," said Patrick Günther, CEO, Quoka. "With the ease and simplicity of providing a mobile phone number, consumers no longer have to provide 16-digit credit card numbers or names and addresses. Especially when talking about micro payments - which is the case with Quoka's premium services - offering a fast and simple payment method is very important. Paying with mopay fully corresponds with our demand for maximum ease-of-use. mopay's best-in-class payouts, professional business support and impressive customer portfolio convinced us to go with the European market leader."
