CheckFreePay, Boost Mobile Team For Walk-In Payments

CheckFreePay's technology delivers an immediate cash recharge of wireless minutes without requiring a PIN or credit card for a hassle-free pay-as-you-go mobile phone experience. CheckFreePay powers consumer in-person payments at more than 11,000 agent sites located in check cashing, retail and grocery stores. Americans on-the-go make millions of walk-in payments each year, paying utility, credit card and wireless bills in-person, often using cash.

Now, Boost Mobile customers can take advantage of the convenience of walk- in payments to recharge their phones in any dollar amount they choose ranging from $20 to $99. CheckFreePay converts the cash payment to an electronic transaction that updates the customer's account in real time. The transaction is fast and secure, allowing customers to quickly make calls from their Boost Mobile wireless phones.

"CheckFreePay makes walk-in payments as convenient as possible for today's busy consumer," said Matt McKernan, Senior Vice President, Biller Business Unit, CheckFree. "Offering an immediate cash transaction enables Boost Mobile's active, younger customers to replenish their wireless minutes easily so they can stay connected to friends and family."
