mobile billing
Mobile Billing enables you to bill your customers seamlessly for any subscription-based service, game or competition that costs between 10p and £10.
You can instantly generate new revenue streams and up-sell to your customers by billing them for new services via their mobile phone, without having to manage payment collection.
Mobile Billing can be applied to endless revenue generating opportunities, however a few examples include:
- Daily news items
- Betting information
- Financial and company news
- Sales information
- Games and quizzes
- Lottery numbers
Using Shortcodes to Increase Responses
Your customers simply text their request or competition / game entry to a shortcode (a 5 digit number) in order to subscribe to your service or take part in your game / competition. As shortcodes don't have any of the negative connotations associated with premium rate numbers, response rates for existing activities are likely to soar.
Automated Payment Collection
Following subscription, your customers are automatically billed, without you ever having to manage payment collection. Customers with mobile phone contracts have the activity simply added to their mobile phone bill, whereas customers on pre-pay phones have the sum deducted from their existing credit.
Recurring Revenue
Once the consumer has subscribed to the service, every time the information is sent to their mobile phone their account is debited. This service will remain operational until they cancel their subscription.
Automated Credits
Billing can be per event or for a number of events, with credits automatically allocated to the customer.
Database Cleansing
As your payment collection will be dependent upon having up-to-date mobile phone numbers for your customers, our solution includes a Number Lookup service. You can easily check that each number is still valid and verify which mobile network the number is currently on, ensuring that your Mobile Billing messages are routed correctly.
