Bucharest, 3 February 2015 - PayPoint Romania, the main retail-based cash and mobile payment operator in Romania, has signed a new agreement with the regional water and sewarage operator from Brasov county, Compania Apa Brasov (Brasov Waterworks). This enables Compania Apa Brasov's customers to pay their water and sewarage bills quickly and securely at any one of over 270 neighbourhood stores in Brasov County with a PayPoint terminal.

To make a payment, the customer simply takes their bill to the nearest store with a PayPoint terminal. There, the shop attendant scans the bill's bar code, the customer pays in cash and receives a receipt with all the transaction's details (date, amount, location, supplier etc). The whole process is very quick, secure and a considerable reduction in the time people need to spend paying their bills. On top of that, there is no extra fee!

"This agreement is a significant step in the consolidation of PayPoint's position in central Romania and is confirmation of our success in reaching consumers in increasingly large numbers. For some years now, residents of Brasov County have been using PayPoint for all sort of payments and we're very pleased to be increasing the range of bills our customers there can pay through our terminals by adding Compania de Apa Brasov.  From now on, a single trip to PayPoint solves the problem of paying all their utility bills," declared Mugur Dogariu, Managing Director of PayPoint Romania."We are delighted that, from this month, we can offer our customers this new payment method through PayPoint, which gives them a more convenient method of paying their water bills," added a spokesman for Compania Apa Brasov.

In addition to paying bills issued by Compania apa Brasov, the county's residents are also able to use PayPoint terminals to pay bills for gas, electricity, mobile phone plans, internet or cable TV and pay for their road tax, as well as buy mobile phone top-ups and even transfer money, both internally and internationally, at selected PayPoint locations.
