MONTREAL, Feb. 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ - Go Fun Card, today announced a strategic partnership with Hybrid Paytech (Freeport Capital Inc.) (CNSX: FAS), one of the world's first companies to enable Credit and PIN Debit transactions over consumer smart phones and tablets, to provide mobile payment and printing options to participating merchants on Go Fun's loyalty platform. The companies will offer a joint solution combining Go Fun's loyalty system and Hybrid's mobile payment platforms to enable Go Fun merchants to process loyalty and payment transactions using mobile devices like smartphones and tablets. While loyalty transactions for checking, accumulating and redeeming points will be done through Go Fun's Loyalty System, payment processing for Credit and PIN Debit cards will be supported by Ease2Pay, a Payment Service Provider that has the capability to process payment transactions from the major card schemes like VISA, MasterCard and China Union Pay.
"Go Fun Card is pleased to partner with Hybrid Paytech to address the growing demand for mobile payment options and be a pioneer in Hong Kong to introduce mobile applications in our loyalty platform," said Jacky Leung, Chairman of BOD for Go Fun Card Limited.
"Go Fun Cardholders and Merchants will benefit from Hybrid's mobile payment solution as it increases payment processing productivity and enhances the customer in-store experience —from in-store mobile payment acceptance to acceptance of credit or debit payment." said Massimo Barone, Chairman of Hybrid Paytech Asia Inc.
Hybrid Paytech is one of the first mobile payment companies in the world to develop Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliant mobile Credit and PIN Debit applications.

About Go Fun Card Limited
Go Fun Card revitalized the loyalty industry in Hong Kong by establishing its platform in 2010 in Hong Kong, Macau and Mainland China. The Go Fun Points System was adopted by more than 500 merchants servicing a broad base of 300,000 cardholders supported by on-going marketing and promotional activities. Through the use of social media like Facebook and promotion channels including "Go Fun Magazine", the loyalty program has been well publicized and also regularly featured in local media. Through this initial success, Go Fun Card is embarking on an international expansion using innovative technical applications to revolutionize and expand the boundaries of loyalty program management across Asia.
At the same time, Go Fun Card takes its corporate social responsibility seriously through active involvement in charity projects. The company will continue to identify and support charitable causes that will benefit the under-privileged in Hong Kong.
