Smartel Communications Inc. said it signed a long-term agreement with the American Bankers Association to market prepaid calling cards and interactive communications services to its members.
Smartel had implemented programs for Citicorp, Chemical Bank Corp., Wells Fargo & Co., and Bankers Trust New York Corp.
Smartel will offer five products to ABA members: promotional phone cards, business-card phone cards, calling cards linked to bank credit cards, interactive phone cards, and retail phone cards.
Under the agreement, the ABA will assist in distributing Smartel's marketing materials to members as well as coordinate member inquiries.
