Dr. Wilson joins the C$ cMoney board as an experienced business owner and real estate investor, and will contribute his extensive knowledge in complex contracting and cash flow management across diverse operations to the company.

Tekell brings extensive business management experience to the board of directors of C$ cMoney, including expertise in financing, negotiating complex contracts and managing operations. Tekell was a board director and part-owner of Heart State Bank located in Heart, Texas, from 1965 until the bank was profitably sold in 1980. Tekell has a background managing agro-chemical facilities, grain storage facilities, farms and ranching operations throughout his career, where he developed cutting edge grain elevators and grain handling equipment.
C$ cMoney expects to continue to expand its board of directors over the next several months enhancing the board’s capacity to provide strategic counsel, identify future management talent and assist the executive team in achieving the company’s operational and financial objectives.

The technology of transaction money through mobile phone is easy and reliable.It is also faster than anything.Mobile phone is now available to everyone.Credit card can do this, but it needs a credit card acceptor.But mobile transaction needs nothing, only your mobile phone.Thanks
