European Prepaid: A profitability mirage or reality?

The prepaid market is experiencing expansion across several diverse and emerging industry sectors with Europe being heralded as the next big market.
Entry to new markets does pose wider implications to the existing prepaid model in terms of the readiness for some countries to facilitate this ahead of others. Expansion across Europe and the implications of a Pan-European marketplace are becoming more of a focus for the prepaid market.

What's new and different in 2009?

Prepaid Card Summit is the only truly European card event of 2009. Hear presentations from leading industry experts on best practices, new opportunities and developing relationships within the European markets. Italian, German and Belgium markets along with Eastern Europe are all starting to experience growth with many new programmes launching every month. Italy boasts the most successful prepaid programme in Europe, Poste Italiane and this year's conference being hosted in Rome, makes the location an appropriate choice for the event.
Our focus will include presentation of exclusive research in many areas of prepaid including new money transfer services, new contactless solutions, the fight against prepaid fraud and the convergence of prepaid, mobile and contactless technology.
