M:tel installs self-service top-up kiosks in Bosnia

June 23, 2014

M:tel, Bosnia’s second largest telecom company, has set up its first self-service top-up kiosks at the Boska and Mercator department store in Banja Luka.

To top up their prepaid accounts, users enter their M:tel telephone number via the machine’s touchscreen and press the confirm button. They then insert money and receive a transaction confirmation.

The machines accept Bosnian Convertible Markas (BAM) coins in the following denominations: BAM 0.50 ($0.35), BAM 1.00 ($0.69), BAM 2.00 ($1.39), and BAM 5.00 ($3.47), to make top-ups ranging from BAM 2.00 ($1.39) to BAM 50.00 ($34.68).

The company says it has received positive feedback about its new top-up method and plans to set up more automated machines at busy locations in Banja Luka and other Bosnian cities.

M:tel is owned by Telekom Srpske JSC Banjaluka.
