El Banco Central del Uruguay (BCU) autorizó a una nueva aplicación móvil, Qoollet, a funcionar como emisora de dinero electrónico y billetera electrónica.
Según informó El Observador, la empresa fue creada en 2013 y la aplicación móvil es capaz de convertir el celular en una billetera electrónica.
Due to the financial inclusion law, the authorization of the Central Bank’s application was delayed more than planned, yet the founders worked side by side with the BCU collaborating with everything related to technology since 2013 to date.
To start trading, Qoollet partners with merchants and banking institutions that will allow its users to pay for their services from the mobile device. In order to ensure security, the user will create a pin, which must be typed before performing any operation, connecting to the Qoollet account with the cell number.
The benefits of paying with Qoolett are:
1. The application offers the same payment solution for face-to-face and web-based purchases.
2. Through Qoollet you can transfer money to friends, family, etc., simply by entering your cell phone number, or by choosing from the contact list.
3. Authorizes to associate users to a person’s electronic wallet in a controlled manner so that they can use the money from that account, as long as the holder so authorizes.
