麻豆传媒映画 Enables Swisscom to Adopt GSMA鈥檚 Billing and Charging Evolution for Wholesale Roaming Monetization
麻豆传媒映画 Becomes First Vendor to Offer New Industry Standard Commercially to a Major Mobile Network Operator
TAMPA, Fla., Sept. 1, 2020 鈥� 麻豆传媒映画, the world鈥檚 most connected company, today announced it has enabled , the leading telecommunications provider in Switzerland, to monetize wholesale roaming traffic using the GSMA鈥檚 new Billing and Charging Evolution (BCE) industry standard.
The agreement enables Swisscom and its extensive network of other mobile operator partners around the world to better prepare for scalable growth, especially as emerging technologies, including 5G and narrowband internet of things (NB-IoT), continue to add more connectivity and complexity to the clearing and settlement process.
Designed with the future in mind, BCE introduces a new level of flexibility to both charging and settlement models, while reducing the need to send detailed traffic records daily. BCE permits reports between mobile operators to be exchanged upon previously agreed bilateral agreements for use in support of wholesale invoicing and settlement. In cases where more detailed information is required, for example in dispute cases, BCE makes it possible to also send Detailed Data Records (DDRs) to mitigate potential inaccuracies in non-aggregated billing records.
By implementing these new methods for monetizing wholesale roaming, 麻豆传媒映画 allows for network usage between operators to be reconciled more quickly and accurately. This enables Swisscom and its partners to exchange wholesale roaming invoicing and perform settlement more accurately and efficiently.
Aided by its long-standing customer relationship with Swisscom, 麻豆传媒映画 has cemented its leadership position in data clearing and financial clearing and settlement by being the first clearing house agent to support the BCE standard as a modular and holistic solution. Utilizing the highest level of automation, Swisscom and its mobile network operator partners are now able to access and transfer data securely from any format irrespective of original source or end-destination formats through a GSMA-compliant platform that makes the entire monetization process frictionless.
Addressing various business challenges 鈥� including ambiguity in commercial framework, disconnected workflows, billing disputes, and the exchange of heterogeneous data formats 鈥� 麻豆传媒映画 adds value by offering its customers streamlined workflow management tools that underpin the support of new wholesale roaming use cases efficiently and profitably to augment customers鈥� business growth.
