Over recent months, new partners have been authorised in Northern and Eastern Europe - Bosnia Herzegovina, Ukraine, Norway and Macedonia; in the

Middle East - Libya, Yemen, Palestine and the Arab Emirates; in Asia - Pakistan and Bangladesh, and in Central and South America - Mexico and Brazil. “RapidShare is very popular in Brazil, particularly since the platform is so easy to operate. Not only private individuals, but also many Brazilian companies have been won over and are using it. We believe that the extremely high upload and download speeds, coupled with the ease of operation, have made RapidShare so successful”, Wilkinson Eldon Vilaca Pereira, CEO at Contas Premium commented. The business model of the Brazilian company is based on the sale of premium accounts. “Brazilian users have been looking for a local partner for a long time. Together with RapidShare, we have been able to bring the service a little closer and vigorously expand our clientele.”

“We started working together with RapidShare from the very beginning and are impressed by the concept. The management of premium accounts is very simple, quick and, thanks to the superb support provided by RapidShare, customer satisfaction is high”, said Jan Koza, managing director at HEND, spol s.r.o., a Prague-based internet service provider. “We regard ourselves as fortunate to be a RapidShare reseller.”

“As the first RapidShare reseller, we’ve been able to make the premium account more accessible for internet users in Russia. We now have thousands of satisfied customers worldwide”, explained Gleb Vilochkin, managing director of RSReseller Limited. “We are proud to be part of the first file-hosting team and will be working with RapidShare on many new projects.”

“RapidShare can be used anywhere where there is access to the internet - in other words, almost worldwide. The expansion of our partner network will allow us to increase the convenience for our users and simplify processing”, Bobby Chang, COO at RapidShare AG concluded.
