EPS Qiwi overcame many obstacles on the way of its development. The success of the company was not always accompanied: there were ups and downs. The company has changed and transformed several times, trying its hand at implementing various IT technologies.

 

How it all started

The history of the Qiwi payment service began in 1999 with a small company called E-port, founded by Boris Kim. This man was from Uzbekistan. E-port specialized in the manufacture of scratch cards (they were used to replenish the balance of a mobile phone: it was necessary to remove the dark film and send the code that appeared to the operator).

A little later, the company's specialists developed a new method of transferring money to a mobile phone account. To do this, it was necessary to purchase a voucher in the operator's salon, after which a message with an activation password was sent to the phone number. But this method was short-lived, since it was much more convenient to pay for communication services directly through the operator.

Several times, E-port employees tried to negotiate with the management of mobile telephony companies, insisting on revising the methods of replenishing cell phones. However, this prospect did not suit the operators very much, since the work in their system was fully established.

And in 2004, the Russian entrepreneur A. Romanenko, together with partners, founded the OSMP company - an electronic payment system whose users could make financial transactions instantly. OSMP specialized in the installation and maintenance of payment terminals.

 

Holding formation. Emergence of a new brand

In the summer of 2009, the fates of two firms crossed: the companies of Romanenko and Kim merged into a single organization OE Investments Limited. The new-found holding consisted of several divisions, including Qiwi Wallet (this service made it possible to conduct various financial transactions) and Qiwi Advertising. So, the Qiwi brand appeared in 2009.

Now this word is on everyone's lips: many people use the services of the company. But in those days it was something new. The management of the holding had to invest 300 thousand dollars to promote the brand, and another 100 thousand was spent on creating a new style and "face". A lot of money was also spent on the modernization of equipment, software and technical equipment. The interface was changed, new terminals were installed and so on.

To date, the Qiwi payment system is a convenient service with which you can quickly conduct financial transactions:

• pay utility bills;
• repay loans and credits;
• transfer funds to the wallets of other users, to accounts opened with banks and other payment systems;
• pay for goods and services, etc.

More than 50 thousand people become users of the system every day.
