mHITs Limited is an Australian based developer and operator of mobile payment services.
mHITs has expertise in the design, deployment and operation of mobile payment solutions particularly for the unbanked and is currently developing partnerships in new markets around the world.
In Australia, mHITs operates the mHITs SMS payment service that allows consumers to send and receive payments by SMS text message.
For retail transactions, mHITs allows consumers to pay for coffee or other food and beverage items using their mobile phone simply by sending an SMS. Consumers can also use the mHITs service to pre-order their items before arrival at a venue, meaning less queuing and waiting and faster service.
A variant of this solution, Easy Canteen, uses the same technology to provide parents and students the ability to order and pay for school canteen lunch orders by SMS.
Consumers can also send and receive money instantly via SMS text message between mHITs members. This makes mHITs ideal for applications such as splitting bills, IOUs and taking collections for payments. Other applications include cashless vending, parking, taxi fare payment, charity donations and cash back offers.
mHITs recently launched it’s “pay for coffee by SMS” service in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and Adelaide and has plans for rollouts in other cities. Details of venues currently using the service in Australia are available via the mHITs website at http://www.mhits.com.au.
