Paybefore has awarded paysafecard in the 2009 Paybefore Awards as the “Best Non-U.S.-Based Prepaid Card or Program”. These annual awards are the most prestigious, recognizing excellence in the worldwide prepaid and stored value card industry.

“We are very proud of winning the Paybefore Award. It gives international recognition to the value of what we are doing currently within Europe and confirms the direction of our plans to bring paysafecard to markets outside of the EU”, states paysafecard.com CEO Michael Mueller.

paysafecard was selected by a panel of five industry experts who served as judges for this year’s competition. 

“Paybefore Awards shine the spotlight on terrific people and companies using prepaid to provide innovative payments solutions,” said Marilyn Bochicchio, Paybefore CEO. “It’s our honor to recognize the efforts of the paysafecard group as a leader in its category.”

”The number of nominations considered this year was almost double last year’s, making winning an even more significant achievement,” she continued. “The quality of the nominated products, services and programs was exceptional, creating quite a challenge for the judges who carefully evaluated each entry on its merits and in context of all the nominations.” 

The paysafecard group offers Europe’s first prepaid card for payments on the Internet to comply with banking laws. paysafecard makes online payments as easy as using cash and it offers complete security against data abuse and fraud. Anybody can use paysafecard as no credit card or bank account is required. When making a payment, customers’ financial privacy remains fully intact. The voucher functions like a charge card for mobile phones. The 16 digit pin code is all that is needed to make a transaction. The paid amount is then debited from the paysafecard balance, which can be checked online at any time.
