OKTO delivers ground-breaking e-Voucher cash payments solution to MaxBet
OKTO, a leading fintech company powering digital payments, delivers its OKTO.CASH solution to Maxbet in Romania. Maxbet.ro users can now top-up their iGaming accounts via secure, fast, and easy e-Voucher cash payments.
“A ground-breaking e-Voucher cash payments solution delivered by the market-leading digital payments provider in the gaming industry space” is how Victor Rusinov, CEO of MaxBet.ro heralded the company’s exciting new partnership with OKTO. The payments partnership has been tailored to meet the specific requirements of MaxBet.ro which was established by a group of casino enthusiasts with a wealth of industry experience to deliver the best online gambling services available to Romanian players and is now one of the biggest operators in the market.
Explaining the significance of the partnership and how it works, OKTO’s Romania Country Representative Liviu Popovici, said: “Our proprietary technology is fully integrated into the MaxBet.ro mobile app and website which enables customers to replenish their accounts in real time via OKTO.CASH. It means that players can load their online accounts without having to leave either the operator’s mobile app or their site. The OKTO.CASH journey is seamless and consistent with the demands of 21st century consumers who want and expect a convenient, streamlined, zero-hassle eCash solution.”
He added: “There’s no such thing as a one size fits all solution, instead OKTO works with the operator to establish a payment method that meets the needs of the market and is adjusted to satisfy local preferences. The topping-up process is not only straightforward and easy to use but it can also be undertaken in real time and at the point-of-sale. OKTO’s point-of-sale presence includes the Selfpay network of 6,000 payment stations, as well as the network of the Digital Payment division of Euronet Worldwide, Inc’s with a global network of 748,000 terminals and is well represented in the region.”
Victor Rusinov, CEO of MaxBet.ro underlined the importance of selecting the correct payments partner and one with a track record of working with leading brands across numerous verticals. He said: “Trust and integrity are at the core of our relationship with OKTO. Our collaboration with OKTO started out of the wish to offer the ideal solution for users who enjoy all the benefits of online but still prefer to transact offline. We are always looking for new ways to facilitate our players’ experience and the fact that they are now able to top up their online player accounts instantly in a fast, easy, and secure way, gives us confidence that it was the best decision. We have been impressed by the technology, which is tried and tested, and by the brand’s ability to deliver a next-gen mobile-first experience that’s reliable, seamless, and secure.”
