Buy hi5 Virtual Currency with Just Your Phone Number

Mon, Mar 9th, 2009

Just a few months ago, hi5 introduced virtual gifts and currency with international flair. Now they're making the virtual purchases no brainers.

There's no need to enter credit card information anymore. Using Paymo, the same mobile payment system that's powering MyYearbook's Lunch Money economy, hi5 members in 24 countries can now use just their phone number to cash out quickly in the hi5 Gift Store.

When we say that payment with Paymo is quick, we're not kidding. Clicking on the Paymo logo opens a new window, where all you need to do is enter your mobile phone number, carrier, and country.

Once you submit your information, Paymo will immediately send an SMS message to your phone and ask you to confirm your purchase by replying to the text with "CONFIRM." One final message will confirm receipt, and you'll be ready to buy hi5 gifts with reckless abandon. Your Paymo charges, which may seem to vanish into thin air, are actually just tacked on to your next mobile phone bill.
