Unosquare Provides Development and Localization for  Vesta’s Prepaid.com International Recharge Portal

Guadalajara, Mexico and Portland, Oregon (July 26, 2010) Unosquare, an IT service provider with operations in Guadalajara, Mexico, and Portland, Oregon, today announced the completion of a development project with Portland-based Vesta Corporation supporting the latest release of www.prepaid.com. The Prepaid.com payment portal was developed and launched by Vesta, and allows anyone, anywhere in the world to recharge airtime for Telcel, Movistar, Iusacell or Unefon prepaid mobile phones for friends and family in Mexico.

In order to better tailor the site to Mexican and Mexican-American consumers, Vesta worked with Unosquare’s Guadalajara office to provide software development, testing services, and translation services for Prepaid.com.

“Prepaid.com provides a valuable service that allows US friends and family members to stay connected by securely sending minutes to prepaid mobile phones in Mexico,” said Unosquare CEO, Michael Barrett. “We are pleased that we could provide the resources and local expertise necessary to bring this solution to market.”

“As we were developing this release of Prepaid.com, it was important that the site appealed to consumers both in the US and Latin America,” added Joshua Rush, director of marketing at Vesta. “With its development team in Mexico, Unosquare was the perfect partner for Vesta to collaborate with on this project.”

"The Mexican government, over several years, has invested significant energy in building a robust information technology sector and the schools needed to build that economic segment. The schools graduate nearly 60,000 to 75,000 students over several IT fields," said Unosquare’s Barrett. "A vast majority of these engineers are proficient in English, and of course, their native language. That makes them a valuable asset for North American and Mexican IT projects. Unosquare's mission is to leverage that asset to deliver the greatest value possible to our clients," Barrett said.
