Data Roaming
The success of your mobile data roaming business requires a compelling service offering, combined with charging and tariff innovation. You need to be able to move fast, to react to new competitive activity and OTT services. This requires a comprehensive approach:
- Product innovation, presenting roaming ‘retail packs’ as an alternative to per M/b pricing. This enables the deployment of compelling services, bundling voice and data options in ways that are easy to understand for your roamers
- Real-time charging and policy management regardless of subscription type, to assure your revenues and be able to offer differentiated service levels and charging innovation
- The provision of a consistent and seamless user experience, ensuring easy access to information about services, charging options and service selection
- A ‘Bill Shock’ protection mechanism, to give your customers the confidence to use data services
- Speed to market in the launch of innovative new services and tariff plans, without having to wait for billing system updates
- A seamless roaming experience, across GSM – CDMA – Wi-Fi – 3G/LTE
These elements combine to ensure growth in usage and revenue for your business as well as developing customer loyalty and reduced churn rates.
