Mobile 365's OCG provides billing solution for WAP
SINGAPORE
-- Mobile 365, a global leader in mobile messaging and
data services, recently announced the launch of its
operator charging gatewayT (OCG). Designed as a bearer-independent
billing platform, the OCG provides a global billing
solution for WAP and web transactions. Building upon
its experience processing millions of premium SMS (PSMS)
transactions daily across an extensive global network
of billing connections, it offers content providers
an additional avenue through which to monetise their
content.
The OCG enables content providers to charge for products
and services directly to a subscriber's mobile phone
bill. As a bearer-independent billing solution, it is
designed to enable content providers to charge for content
irrespective of the delivery method used. It acts as
a billing aggregator, providing the content provider
with a single API through which they can access operator-billing
platforms worldwide. Each piece of content uploaded
to the OCG can be charged at varying rates on an operator-by-operator
basis.
Jorgen Nordin, vice president, product management, Mobile
365, said: "While PSMS continues to show robustness
as a mobile payment channel, the OCG is the next evolution
of m-commerce and an example of how Mobile 365's ingenuity
helps drive this industry forward. By providing a common
API to the myriad of global operator billing interfaces
and handling the complexity and diversity of systems
for content providers, we simplified the process of
charging for mobile content."
