International mobile solutions firm JMango and data and SAP specialist firm ITPro Services today announced that they are entering into a partnership that would bring JMango’s innovative mobile solutions and development services into Mexico. Under the terms of the agreement, ITPro Services will distribute, implement and host JMango’s secure mobile banking suite and mobile commerce solutions in Mexico.
“We are thrilled to have ITPro Services on board as our partner in Mexico” said Ilan Oosting, Chief Executive Officer of JMango. “Mexico is a very important market to us because of the potential of the opportunities provided by their thriving mobile industry” he continued. “We believe our new partnership will help us realize that potential and we really look forward to seeing the results.”
Norberto Ramírez, Chief Executive Officer of ITPro Services was just as enthusiastic. “Mobile is a great industry to be in right now” he said. He added, “Mobile payments and banking has a bright future here in Mexico, and JMango with its extensive line of world-class mobile solutions is the right company to go with into this market. We couldn’t think of any company better to enter into a partnership with.”
In addition to JMango’s mobile solution packages, ITPro Services will also be able to use JMango’s patented mobile development platform to create custom applications for their clients. This proprietary platform allows developers to create and deploy applications to multiple mobile operating systems using a single line of code, effectively reducing development hours and the associated costs massively. The application currently supports over 90% of all of the mobile devices in the market today from smartphones to feature phones and tablets.
“JMango’s platform will be a key tool for us” said Ramírez “Mobile penetration has seen constant growth in Mexico with an estimated 80% of the population owning a mobile phone but only around 20% of these being smartphones. JMango’s mobile development platform and its capability to deliver applications of less than a 100KB to the most basic MIDP 2.0 phones and its ability to communicate via binary SMS makes it the perfect tool for us to deploy applications tailored to our market” he added.
JMango has been expanding the past few months with new partnerships with key companies across the globe. The company has also just recently opened new offices in Hong Kong and the USA.
“Mexico and its high reliance on mobile communications makes it the ideal springboard for us” said Ilan. “This is only the first step of many as we strive towards expanding deeper into the valuable Latin American market” he concluded.
