Australia’s only dedicated pre-paid conference delivering ideas, solutions and partnerships for prepaid, stored value and emerging payments professionals
Prepaid Cards Australia 2008 explores the strategic issues and emerging opportunities in Australia’s prepaid space. It’s about analysing opportunities and examining ways to overcome challenges and maximise profitability for all stakeholders.

For delegates

Mirroring global trends, Australia’s prepaid market is rapidly expanding. Mirroring global trends, Australia’s prepaid market is rapidly expanding. The Australian prepaid cards market has grown from zero two years ago to 300,000+ cards issued today. Despite this growth, there’s still an acute lack of awareness and understanding about the benefits and commercial advantages prepaid cards can provide.

Success in the prepaid economy hinges on partnerships. Understanding the business models and hearing from prepaid program leaders from sectors outside your own is crucial in gaining a real and thorough understanding of the multi-application, multi-channel nature of prepaid cards.
The local prepaid card industry is still trying to establish how big the opportunity is, and what role they will play in the value chain. Good strategy and partnerships has never been more important.
