Wellington, June 28 NZPA - Merchant services company SmartPay is expanding its services to include prepay top-ups for mobile network operator 2degrees.

SmartPay today said its software already supported mobile top-up for the Telecom and Vodafone networks. 2degrees was added in response to its rapid growth as New Zealand's third mobile network provider.

SmartPay managing director Ian Bailey said it had become increasingly common for prepay mobile users to have phones for two or even three providers.

2degrees mobile top-ups were available now and would be rolled out to all SmartPay Cadmus prepaid merchants.
