Tizen's official announcement: www.tizenassociation.org/tizen-association-announces-37-new-partner-program- members-2/ Participation at the Tizen Developer Conference in San Francisco The Tizen Association has invited BD Multimedia to run a series of product demonstrations at the Tizen Developer Conference taking place from 2 to 4 June in San Francisco. PayDuo will be the only payment service exhibiting its in-app mobile payment solutions. It will be promoted at a stand provided free of charge by the Association, with a number of demonstrations taking place throughout the three- day event. More information about the conference can be found at the Tizen Association's website:  https://www.tizen.org/events/tizen-developer-conference/2014 Jim Dorra, Head of Payment Services, commented: "We have been actively monitoring new mobile operating systems, and the evolving democratization of payment systems for mobile applications on those systems, for over two years. As I announced at our AGM two years ago, mobile HTML5 technology will break open the hegemonic mobile application payment model. This is the path taken by Firefox OS and Tizen OS, both of which, as open source projects, are open by definition. Payments will also be open to competition. We are closely monitoring this trend so as to provide our wide range of payment solutions, including payments charged directly to users' phone bills, and to provide the application development community with new monetization models in addition to bank cards." +------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |About the BD Multimedia Group: | | | |StarPass.fr and PayDuo.com are fully integrated payment services that offer| |online merchants selling digital goods and web services the ability to| |monetize their content using a single solution with no installation costs or| |recurring fees. | |  | |StarPass is operated by BD Multimedia, a pioneer in premium and value-added| |services since 1986 and an expert in telecoms solutions. | |  | |The PayDuo.com service is operated internationally by the Group's subsidiary| |BD Multimedia Hong Kong. | |BD Multimedia is listed on the Alternext market of the Paris Stock Exchange| |(ISIN code: FR0000035305/ALBDM). | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ Reminder of last press release dated May 28, 2014:  "BD Multimedia: Q1 2014 Group revenue" Next press release dated June 20, 2014:   "New partnership: Sofort Banking payment solution" This announcement is distributed by GlobeNewswire on behalf of GlobeNewswire clients.
