Mobile Commerce and Mobile-First for Airlines in Asia-Pacific

The size of the opportunity and the importance of the Asia-Pacific market to the travel sector cannot be overstated. As such,CellPoint Mobile has positioned itself as a leader in the region,helping airlines support both Alipay and WeChat Pay – which account for 93% of China's mobile payments market – across all e-commerce platforms (web,mobile web and native app). CellPoint Mobile quickly and cost-effectively integrates these APMs (and others,including Apple Pay) into travel merchants' existing payments infrastructure,as well as additional sales or payment side solutions for mobile commerce.

As more global airlines ramp up their capabilities to serve the growing APAC market – with the help of CellPoint Mobile – Daniel will be instrumental in helping airlines meet their needs and take a more strategic approach to the mobile channel to grow revenue and improve the passenger experience.

"CellPoint Mobile has already made significant inroads with APAC carriers," said Daniel Lu. "I look forward to helping the company continue capitalizing on the region's exponential growth in air travel,improve airlines' payments processes,help them better serve their passengers and ultimately drive higher revenues."
