I dismissed this company as froth when I first looked at it. Since then the sp has doubled and continues to steadily rise. I looked again and when I saw the countries and contracts this firm is in---I was impressed and bought some to tuck away. anyone else bought in or interested?

Monitise launches cloud-based API platform
Platform enables businesses to integrate Mobile Money solutions more simply and quickly

16 April, 2015: Mobile Money provider Monitise (LSE: MONI) announces the launch of its cloud-based platform enabling a powerful API-based delivery model for a range of digital banking and payment products. The development of the new platform is an integral part of the company's focus on growing as a product-led technology business.

The platform, previously referred to as the company's Central Platform, provides the underlying enterprise-class technology through which Monitise products can be made available to existing and new clients to enhance end-consumer propositions.

The platform's Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) make deployment and integration of Monitise's latest banking, payment and commerce products faster, easier and more flexible for clients and third-party content providers wanting to enhance their existing banking offerings.

Monitise Chief Operating Officer Mike Dreyer said: "We have invested in our platform to create smarter, faster and better access to our current and future suite of products as well as an ever-growing range of devices. Over the course of the next year, we expect to see our new cloud-based platform play an increasingly important role in driving our user numbers and revenue growth. The platform has been designed to help us deliver digital products built around consumer needs."

The platform's core capabilities mean that all new products are delivered with Monitise best-in-class features, including bank-grade security and authentication, multi-tenancy capabilities, customer support dashboards and standardised reporting. Monitise also provides expertise for consumer experience and technology integration from strategy and design to driving adoption, according to the individual needs of each client.

A better day after the RNS, it takes time to reverse the trend

My 3-Way High-Risk Play: Monitise Plc, Rare Earth Minerals PLC And Sirius Minerals PLC
By Motley Fool | Mon, 20th April 2015 - 09:21

On The Moni

Monitise is another favoured high-risk play among Motley Fool investors, one that is down 30% in the last month alone, as management failed to find a buyer for the mobile banking software group.

I'm still tempted, especially given its rollcall of top clients, led by Santander, MasterCard, IBM, Visa Europe and RBS.

I'm also pleased by management's bullish insistence that it can go it alone without a buyer, and is still on course to turn a profit in 2016, which could be a game changer.

I just wonder what mindset believes they a re better off selling their business?
Surely having worked at the start ( or nearly) and moved along ( Up, do I hear?), you want to see things through as only you know the history ( so as to avoid any repeats, etc.)...what would induce Shareholders to invest . . . . if they were told you plan to sell?

...And if you haven't told the Market beforehand, you are surely creating a falsehood?
OR am I just not understanding what's happening here?

I don't just mean those IPO reams of lawyer-speak which may mention this, and that and almost everything in between - such "disclosure" is more to inflate the presence of the lawyers' fee and has little to assist the Retail Shareholder, who will listen to Execs for about 5-mins and then move on... convinced, or otherwise.

I fear the bods running this outfit want out, as soon as they can stuff some dosh into their suits.
Other views, please . . . .

the early worm catches the bird or somesuch .....

Gross cash at 30 June 2015 of £88.6m shows a material reduction in H2 cash outflows over H1 and provides balance sheet strength to see Monitise through to break-even and beyond.

@ 7.06p

share price looks ready to push higher on volume term
has on the past wanting to do the same and kept falling

I guess VISA thought that MONI was about to go-places. But as is so common with small-Caps their noise was greater than their finances and I guess MONI just can't back-up their claims to the on-line payment regime. At 7p this is a disasterous investment.

Tell me about it.........

today is the day now 7.30p to buy

the recent flat bottom at the chart has finally got the go ahead and moving forward

another early rise though the market is well down

Are shorts closing some positions?
