After the launch in the United Arab Emirates including its approximately 1 million Filipinos, the launch of Bahrain and its nearly 80,000 Filipinos has been completed. This launch has been important as a test of cooperation with Intigral International FZ-LLC, a subsidiary of Saudi Telecom Company (See release dated April 13, 2016). The most common means of payment for Mavshacks target group in the Middle East are through mobile phones where the subscribers mainly buy day-passes. Consequently integration with local mobile operators is essential. The number of new subscribers is lower than previous periods, which is explained by Bahrain being a significant smaller market than the United Arab Emirates. The number of sold subscriptions remains at a satisfactory level and the second quarter 2016 will report a material increase compared with the first quarter 2016. Mavshacks next objective is to launch its product through mobile operators in Kuwait (0.3 million Filipinos) and Saudi Arabia (1.6 million Filipinos). This is planned to start in the third quarter (July to September) this year.
