(Alliance News) - Avast PLC on Wednesday said it has partnered with PMovil, a direct carrier billing and alternative payments provider in Latin America, to make its subscription-based solutions available to a broader customer base.

The Prague-headquartered digital security and privacy products provider said that, through the partnership, PMovil will offer mobile subscribers across the region the option to pay for Avast's subscription-based services as part of their monthly phone bill or part of their existing prepaid balances. The method of payment will be available to Avast's existing customers in the region, with the potential to also reach 400 million paid users across PMovil's global network.

"At Avast, we believe that everyone has the right to a safe and secure internet and that means making it as easy as possible to access cyber security solutions," said Nick Viney, senior vice president of partner team at Avast.

"We're thrilled to start working with Avast to make industry-leading cybersecurity solutions as accessible as possible," added Fabian de la Rua, chief executive of PMovil.

Avast shares were trading 2.7% higher in London on Wednesday morning at 474.80 pence each.
