Ltd. (“GloBird Energy”), a competitive cost energy provider in Australia, to establish a QR Code based billing service using the Q-Bill product to facilitate utility payments.
In an effort to provide an efficient cash free payment system, CLPS and SuperPay, a widely used cross border payment brand in Australia, jointly launched Q-Bill, a QR-Code based payment system. The Company, through its consolidated subsidiary, CLPS Technology (Australia) Pty.

GloBird will be able to review and download the transaction data from a web portal.
Mr. Raymond Lin, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of CLPS Incorporation, commented: “In recent years China has become a global leader implementing “cash-free” payment systems. CLPS brings its long history of expertise in payment systems to Australia as we offer an attractive alternative to cash payments with Q-Bill.
