Harex Ubiquitous Mobile Payment Service provides their customers a convenient safe and secure method to make payments with their mobile phones. The OTA System, for which Harex holds many related patents, gives the customers the flexibility of downloading this service possible anywhere and at anytime.

Mobile operators in Korea (SKT, KT & LGT) are major stakeholders of Harex.

Banking and Financial Institutions seek ease and flexibility of transactions both for them and their clients. Harex Ubiquitous Mobile Payment Service not only helps them achieve this but also reduces overheads.
