Operator WAP gateway

Operator Internet gateway

Internet

• Growing range of devices– Classic phones thru feature phones to smart phones…– Varying capabilities – screens, media, touch…– Multiple browsers – Safari WebKit, IE, Opera, Mozilla, SkyFire…

The challenges of multiple connections

Operator Internet gateway

Operator WAP gateway

• Consumer confusion over connection types– WAP, GPRS, Internet, WiFi– Which should I use?– Some things only work using WAP

• Some connections hide operator & identity– Devices frequently change connection type– Some devices never connect via operator gateways– Many BlackBerry devices connect via RIM gateways

• Some operators don’t support services on Internet gateways

– Orange, O2, AT&T support only WAP gateways– Even operator-hosted payment solutions can fail to

identify the user

Transaction volumes (payment or identity) across more than 17,000 mobile websites

14

Usage of both WiFi and MNO connection

• Sample of 100,000 random unique users visiting sites in May:

Thousands of sites

69,017 visited by mobile operator ONLY

16,681 visited using WiFi ONLY

14,302 visited using MNO AND WiFi during May alone

15

Building a global solution for identification

• Bango assigns a unique identity to every visitor– Independent of operator identity – MSISDN, subno, client-id, nothing– All devices and connections – WiFi, BlackBerry, iPhone, Opera– Identity upgraded as connection changes

• E.g. WiFi identity upgraded with operator information when known

• Single, persistent ID across all connections and multiple visits

• Multi-tier logic using authenticated ID from operator relationships

User ID523673

A user identity – e.g. 523679

Their country of origin (e.g. USA)

Which operator they use (e.g. Sprint)

How they are currently connected

Their device and mobile number

Where they are right now (e.g. Starbucks)

16

Open platform, based on standards

• Bango is an open platform

• Based on standard internet technologies– HTTP and HTTPS– SOAP Web Services

• Use the platform how you want, using your chosen technology

17

How you can collect data

• Collecting data is simple and non-intrusive– Invisible image tags– HTTP redirection– Web Services

• Real-time user information collected for you– Unique, persistent user identity– Device details– Operator information– Current location

• Data available in real-time via Web Services

• Or can be viewed using rich web reports

18

Analyzing the results

• Precise unique visitor identification– Accurate foundation – better than desktop– Meaningful customer-centric information– Accurate path analysis– History of visits, payments, goals

• Real-time visitor IDs

19

Rich mobile information

• Devices– Device Atlas, WURFL

• Operators and country– MNO – Sprint, Telefonica, O2 etc– MVNO – Boost, Jitterbug etc– Any internet connection

20

Recommendations

• Don’t ignore WiFi

• Record and understand individual customers

• There is a lot of value in your data

• Personalize the experience (use a real-time user ID)– Build user history and trends– Target messages and offers– Welcome new visitors and reward loyal customers– Store preferences – Avoid logins
