Homegrown smart devices brand Starmobile has been chosen by pawnshop and remittance chain MLhuillier to create a customized Android smartphone for its employees and customers.
Powered by Smart Prepaid SIMs, the modified Starmobile Play Five units are pre-installed with MLhuillier?s MLWallet app which the Cebu-based company hopes will further empower its workforce to embrace the increasing influence of digital technologies on the remittance industry.
Pasig-based Starmobile, which was established in 2011, said MLhuillier is its first non-telco partner for custom-branded phones. It previously partnered with Smart for the launch of Play Click phones.
