Customer Care & Billing Platform

Amdocs features enhancements to support advanced mobile IP services. The enhancements allow carriers to capture new revenue streams via advanced support for revenue sharing, prepaid, m-commerce and location-based services. It also provides the RapidTrack deployment program, which allows carriers to launch mobile Internet services. The service-management features provide bundled mobile IP offerings such as IP access, e-mail, Internet/intranet access and WAP-based content and value-added services. The rule-based rating engine supports billing plans and its flexibility accommodates rating of any service attribute in a carrier-grade environment. - www.amdocs.com

Freever's Mobile Chat allows carriers to offer wireless users the ability to join mobile forums and chat with other anonymous participants using text messaging, and chat simultaneously with up to eight pseudonyms per message. Messages can be displayed instantly on addressees' screens. Once the user is registered, public forums and chat rooms are accessible. When a member chooses to subscribe to a private forum, a message is automatically sent to the leader of that community who grants approval. The service also enables carriers to provide members the opportunity to create private groups to simultaneously send the same messages to other members, either from the Web or from their mobile phones. Other interactive functions include the company's Match Making, which puts subscribers in contact with each other on the basis of pre-chosen criteria including gender, age, interests and proximity to callers. - www.freever.com
