"Over half of our active users visit us on mobile each day," notes Geoff Cook, Chief Operating Officer of Quepasa Corporation. "We've experienced extraordinary 300% growth in mobile users over the last year. With the launch of Credits, we now can monetize our mobile users through virtual currency. By launching Credits for mobile, we are putting our virtual currency at the core of the mobile user experience."
"With significantly less payment friction than on the web, mobile is the future of social networking monetization," continues Cook. "Every social network, from Facebook to LinkedIn, is struggling with how to monetize this fastest growing segment of its audience. Mobile is the ideal platform for meeting new people. With the launch of mobile Credits, myYearbook users can now meet more new people and increase their popularity on the network faster than ever before."
Users of myYearbook for Android can use Google Checkout to purchase Credits on their mobile devices. Users of myYearbook for iPhone will soon be able to purchase Credits using their iTunes billing profiles. Credits can be purchased for $2.99, $9.99, $19.99, and $39.99, depending on the desired quantity.
Mobile Credits enable users to self-promote and to be front and center among users by activating three highly-trafficked Spotlight features directly from their mobile devices. Each Spotlight feature costs 50 Credits, or approximately $1.00.
By purchasing mobile Credits and Spotlight features, users can also increase their Popularity on the network. All users receive a Popularity Rank based on the number of profile views, friend requests, secret admirers, likes, and comments they receive. Users can track their Popularity Rank over time, and other users can view their Popularity on their profiles.
"People care about their standing within the community," notes Cook. "While users can continue to increase in Popularity simply by using the site as a free user, mobile users now can boost their Popularity by using Credits to buy into the Spotlight."
"We could not be more excited at the prospect for mobile monetization," continues Cook. "Smartphone penetration is only going to continue to increase and the big mobile payment platforms, iOS and Google Checkout, will become increasingly seamless. No medium has ever grown as fast as mobile. We look forward to realizing the promise of mobile monetization while we build the leading social network for meeting new people."
Mobile Credits are available today on Android and Quepasa plans to launch them soon on iPad and iPhone.
