Launch MVNO Services Faster than Before with Readymade Billing and OSS Solutions

For an MVNO to deliver its services up to the expectation of its subscribers can be a tough task. As MVNOs do not have their own network infrastructure, they are dependent on MNOs and MVNEs. Also, they have an urgent need to grow across different verticals, so as to supply the requisite services to their subscribers. From basic services like SIM card delivery to billing and OSS solutions, they need help especially in the initial stages.

 

Full MVNOs vs. Branded Resellers

A full MVNO is a fully-functional MVNO model with its very own network infra and hardware like HLR. On the other extreme of the MVNO universe, we have branded resellers and thin MVNOs who are technically limited. They are more or less dependent on the MVNE and its telecom systems like telecom postpaid billing system, telecom prepaid billing system, broadband monetization, video streaming platforms etc. In the MVNO world, the number of marketing experts (branded reseller) is higher than the ones who are technologically accomplished (full MVNO). And, these MVNOs would rather ignore the technical side of running an MVNO, so they can focus more on selling the services to a dedicated subscriber base. Therefore, they need the services of adept MVNEs and telecom support services providers.

 The Value of Readymade Billing and OSS Solutions

Readymade billing and OSS solutions can expedite the journey of ambitious MVNOs. By utilizing well-established resources like lifeline ETC module, it is possible for them to reach out to a targeted subscriber base.

As an example, we can take the case of lifeline services provided to the US customers. An MVNO who wants to target economically weaker subscriber group would have to procure the right database, software etc., in order to start this service. But an easier way is to utilize readymade billing and OSS solutions in the form of lifeline ETC module, which can help in:

·         Authentication of subscribers

·         Elimination of duplicity from the database

·         Verification of subscriber address

·         Subscriber eligibility check

Such a pre-built module can come in really handy for budding MVNOs who want to target specific user groups. And, it can also allow them to grow in a variety of verticals via APIs and pre-established partnerships. For example, a simple install of API allows them to access services of payment gateways and shipping vendors.

Cutting-Edge Charging System for Billing Present and Future Services

One of the most important requirements of modern-day telecom billing is a convergent charging system. But most MVNOs do not have the time, money or skills to develop or acquire the right billing and OSS solutions. But with the right partnership with the right telecom support vendor, you can access the perfect platform for service delivery. At Telgoo5, we have a cutting-edge OCS that can expedite plan launch and improve MVNO services from the ground up. Have a look at some of its vital features:

Quick monetization of services

The most critical thing for an MVNO to be successful is to launch its services faster than its competition. Our billing and OSS solutions are very flexible and allow MVNOs to package their services exactly as per their marketing strategies, and in the shortest time possible.

Event and session-based charging

Our OCS can bill services based on events and sessions. For example, an SMS is charged as per event basis and calls are charged as per the length of the call sessions. This functionality allows almost every service – past and present – to be monetized and billed effectively.

Enforcement of credit limits

Our OCS enforces thresholds religiously. It charges services in real-time and the moment a subscriber is about to expend his/her quota, it sends notifications. Therefore, subscribers stay within the quota limit and do not incur additional charges.
