He is dressed in a bright orange coat and carries a point of sales (POS) machine which looks very similar to a mobile credit card machine. You can see him in public places such as bus stands and railway stations and you can get to know his existence by the special sound that his device makes. Pre-paid mobile users gather around him to reload their mobile phones. Welcome the Reload man to town!
According to statistics, while 90% of the country’s mobile users are pre-paid and the majority of reload outlets do not provide reload facilities for all mobile communication networks. Z reload service from Sampath bank which powers the reload man has now enabled a hassle-free top up of prepaid mobile connections belonging to any mobile network.
Sampath Bank along with Imovation Data Solutions (Pvt) Ltd is behind this new service. It support reloading of a connection belongs to any Mobile operator network in Sri Lanka namely Airtel, Dialog, Etisalat, Hutch and Mobitel.
Main technology behind this mobile reload mechanism is Margento DOV (Data over Voice), a patented and proprietary contactless data-over-voice transaction technology. In a nutshell, the POS device modulates transaction data into voice signals and sends them to the processing center through the voice connection established by the customer with his mobile phone. Thus, phone serves as a communication device between the point-of-sale terminal and Application servers. They communicate in the same manner as mobile people do – using speech and a mobile phone. DOV ensures fast, highly secure and cost-effective wireless transmission of the transaction messages from a POS machine to the central application servers for further approval of payments and other transactions.
