Monday 18 July 2011 14:43 CET | News

US financial services company American Express and US provider of wireless and wireline communication services Sprint have signed an agreement to provide Sprint customers with access to Serve, a digital payment and commerce platform.

As a result, in the summer of 2011, Serve’s mobile wallet application is set to be made available in the Sprint Zone to Sprint customers using select Android-powered smartphones. Sprint customers with these devices can find Sprint Zone, which also provides Sprint account information, recommends apps and more, as an icon on their Sprint mobile device.

The American Express Serve platform enables consumers to make purchases and person-to-person (P2P) payments online (on www.serve.com) via mobile phones and traditional cards at merchants who accept American Express cards.

Serve integrates multiple payment options into a single account that customers are able to fund from a bank account, debit, credit or charge card, or by receiving money from another Serve account. To access the account, consumers have to set up an online account at Serve.com or through a smartphone app. Customers can use these accounts to send and receive money to friends, pay bills and make purchases online. The Serve accounts can be accessed via Serve Apple iOS and Android applications at Serve.com and through Facebook.
