I should have mentioned this earlier, but this week I’m at the Prepaid Press Expo this week. Hence the spotty updates. Anyway, it has been nothing but an informative conference. Speakers from all around the prepaid realm have given us insight into the future of the industry. One topic, though, that I’d like to mention now, and which I’ll elaborate on later, is the convergence of prepaid wireless and stored value cards. The tone of this conference has me, along with just about everyone else here, thinking that the future successes in the prepaid realm will be those who integrate their prepaid wireless services with other prepaid services — such as money transfers, landline long distance, mobile banking services, etc. Basically, the idea is to give consumer value-added services which can tie directly into their prepaid cell phone service.

This will all become a lot more clear when I have more than a paragraph to flesh out the idea. I know we have a number of regular commenters, so I’d like to open up the forum. How do you, the prepaid users, see stored value cards enhancing your prepaid experience?
