Money Transfer Industry Urged to Inter-connect at IAMTN Conference: Luup and Dhasatra Advocate an Open Mobile Money Transfer Ecosystem

DUBAI, UAE, March 29, 2011 - Mobile financial solutions provider Luup today outlined key success
factors for building a seamless remittances ecosystem that includes
challenging geographies such as Indonesia.

At the MTD conference held in Dubai by the IAMTN, the international trade
association for the money transfer industry, Saqib Iqbal, Regional Director
Asia Pacific for Luup, reinforced: "Users want cost-effective interconnected
money transfer services that they can access from any provider, anytime,
anywhere." He added: "Mobile technology enables such efficient services, yet
they depend on co-operation and the building of payments gateways, seamless
remittance interconnections and cash-out facilities."

Indonesia is a particularly challenging geography due to a
largely unbanked population spread over hundreds of islands. The
proliferation of mobile phones though makes it highly conducive to mobile
enabling services. Seizing this opportunity to bring cost effective, real
time remittance solutions to its customers, Dhasatra Indonesian Remittance,
has joined Luup's expanding, open mobile money transfer ecosystem.

Luup will mobile enable the inbound remittance corridor to
Indonesia for Dhasatra and the subsequent distribution into Dhasatra's
extensive network in the country. Both banked and unbanked will be able to
remit into bank accounts of 120 banks or cash out from bank and post office
branches as well as telecom franchisees.

In 2010 alone inbound remittances to Indonesia amounted to around
US$ 11Bn. The fast growing numbers of Indonesian migrants in the Middle East
in particular are set to benefit from this increased convenience. The UAE,
for example, ranks fourth globally with its sending volume to Indonesia and
Luup already has an established payments gateway serving users in the Middle
East. Luup's regional presence provides Dhasatra with access to more sending
institutions and other key partners in the Luup ecosystem.

Nicolas R. Dharmawan, President Director of Dhasatra, joined Luup
at the MDT conference in advocating seamless mobile money transfers and gave
examples of business benefits his company is gaining: "Partnering with Luup
brings more remittances volume and traffic to Dhasatra and ultimately
increases revenue. We are also excited about opportunities we will be able to
pursue in Indonesia for m-commerce and domestic mobile money transfers as the
partnership evolves further."

The Money Transfer Dubai conference was held on the 29th March in Dubai
and Luup demonstrated its solutions on its stand as well as speaking on the
conference stream 'Business opportunities and Challenges'. For further
