Ding, the largest international mobile top-up platform, continues its global expansion with a new partnership with SmarTone in Hong Kong, which will see the company add international mobile top-up to its product offering through the MySIMAccount App.
Under the new partnership, SmarTone prepaid customers will be able to send international mobile top-up to family and friends back home in the Philippines, Indonesia and Malaysia, directly from their MySIMAccount App.
The partnership gives SmarTone’s customer access to Ding’s network of 550+ mobile operators, covering 95% of the population.
This new partnership will enable a wide range of expats living in Hong Kong to send the gift of international airtime to family and friends. In the Philippines for example, some 96% of mobiles phones are of the prepaid variety, with half out of credit at any one time, so there is a significant need to keep these phones topped-up with airtime and data.

This new partnership further strengthens Ding’s business in Asia and expands the services which are available to the foreign worker population who are supporting family back home.
