Convergence comes in many forms, and there are several functions that operators need to consider when creating or upgrading their networks. Today’s mobile and VoIP networks consist of disparate systems, most of which do not integrate at the back-end and usually have some elements based on post and/or real-time processing.

Consider an MVNO who relies on network APIs for post CDR processing and who does not have access to network signaling or a VoIP operator that cannot communicate directly with the mobile core network to converge their service offerings. While each type of operator can stand on their own, they often fail to converge signaling, billing, and services, which can lead to a host of business and technical issues while imposing significant commercial limitations.

Convergence – What Operators Should Consider

Page 8: Talking SIP Mobility - MVNE & MVNO and M2M Billing Solution

Real-time access to network signaling is a major benefit to the successful operation of a next-generation mobile and VoIP network. A converged services platform that supports SS7, SIGTRAN, DIAMETER, CAMEL, USSD and SIP allows the operator to service and cost-effectively originate and terminate voice, data and SMS traffic across devices on both home or host networks.

Real-time signaling provides the operator with the ability to authenticate subscribers, bill for services, provision SIMs, route call traffic, support multi-IMSI SIM profiles, and enable value-added services while insulating themselves from potential fraud and subscriber service overruns.

With the ability to mix and match signaling regardless of the call type, the operator gains a competitive edge through the ability to generate revenue from many types of in-demand subscriber services whether it be voice, data, SMS or any combination thereof.

Signaling Convergence

Page 9: Talking SIP Mobility - MVNE & MVNO and M2M Billing Solution

A converged services platform that includes a tightly coupled real-time billing engine along with real-time network signaling provides the operator with greater flexibility and control in how they bill for services.

Real-time billing can be unified to provide a variety of services for a single subscriber account, as well as enabling streamlined credit and policy management for tiered billing models (e.g., wholesaler/reseller/retail models). When billing convergence is achieved, each consumed service can be billed independently from the other.

For example, a mobile call can be billed differently from a SIP Wi-Fi/3G call; an on-net call can be billed differently from an off-net call; data originating over one partner carrier’s network can be billed differently from another partner; and USSD callback requests can be billed differently from ones originating via SMS.

Without convergence operators are limited in their ability to be creative and competitive in the pricing of their services, and if they are limited to post CDR processing it becomes even more difficult and labor intensive to manage their billing/collection operations consistently and predictably across the network. Perhaps most importantly, converged billing simplifies the creation and addition of new services to existing subscribers which results in enhanced profitability and improved competitive advantage.

Billing Convergence

Page 10: Talking SIP Mobility - MVNE & MVNO and M2M Billing Solution

Today most operators are competing on price, which is a race to the bottom. In this pricing model every operator loses – while they may gain subscribers in the short term, reaching break-even, or even profitability using razor-thin margins is risky and highly elusive. So how does an operator gain subscribers, reduce churn, build margins and make money? The answer is convergence.

Through convergence the operator can provide a suite of services that are all tied and billed to a single subscriber account that can be self-managed from a web portal, using a single e-wallet, and marketed to both the consumer and the enterprise alike.   The following are some of the consumer and enterprise services that can be considered to build subscriber loyalty and capture the greatest market share.

Service Convergence

Consumer Services๏ Domestic mobile SIM๏ Single and multi-IMSI global roaming

travel SIM๏ Data and M2M SIM๏ OTT SIP Wi-Fi/3G (4G/LTE) softphone๏ Mobile dialers๏ Voicemail๏ Find Me/Follow Me services๏ Prepaid calling card๏ Callback๏ International Long Distance

Enterprise Services๏ Auto-attendant, audio-text, voicemail

and PBX services๏ Inbound call center with agent queuing

and skills-based routing๏ Conferencing๏ Find Me/Follow Me services

Page 11: Talking SIP Mobility - MVNE & MVNO and M2M Billing Solution

Enabling a mobile and VoIP network with convergence provides the operator with the highest opportunity for success across multiple revenue centers by driving long-term subscriber loyalty. From the subscribers’ perspective, they want to be able to go to a single source to have their telecom needs met, where they can manage their services from a single portal and make payment from a single credit card -- this drives subscriber traction, ARPU and loyalty.

When the operator ties in enterprise applications they can now service consumers and businesses from a single platform, from a single account and with real-time billing and reporting -- this reduces network operational complexity, CAPEX, and OPEX.

Enhanced Services (Included)

Debit/Calling Card Module

The Debit Card Module provides calling card functionality to Talking SIP Mobility™. Prepaid and postpaid accounts are authenticated and authorized by the Talking SIP Mobility™ platform and then prompted for the desired destination number. The caller’s destination is rated and routed, where Talking SIP Mobility™ then connects the caller through to the desired destination. The call is tracked to detect when the called party disconnects or the calling party signals that they wish to make another call without having to be re-authenticated. As the calling party’s balance nears depletion a low water mark is played and then the callers are gracefully disconnected. Once the called and calling parties are disconnected the account balance is immediately updated and a call detail record and billing record are written.

Tandem Module (Class 4 Switching)

The Tandem Module allows Talking SIP Mobility™ to provide Class 4 tandem switching, where the platform receives the inbound call request, authenticates, rates, routes and rapidly terminates the call based on the calling party’s dialed number. The Tandem Module also utilizes Talking SIP Mobility™’s billing engine to maintain billing and CDRs for each call on a prepaid or postpaid basis. This module also supports some Class 5 Features as well.

800/900/DID Termination Module

The 800/900/DID Termination Module allows the termination of toll or toll-free calls to a local phone number or IP-based device. This module allows prompt and efficient re-direction of toll and toll-free numbers to various termination numbers or IP devices without the traditional delay and overhead. The 800/900/DID Termination Module also provides full billing and accounting of all traffic that passes through each inbound access number.

Voucher Recharge Module

The Voucher Recharge Module allows service providers and telecom operators the option of providing their customers with the flexibility to transfer balances from one account or voucher to another account. The module can be configured in conjunction with the Debit Card Module, whereby the caller is provided with the option of transferring a balance whenever he/she logs into the system. The Voucher Recharge Module helps to increase customer retention by providing customers with the option of being able to transfer balances to a familiar account number that may already be pre-programmed into their wireless or wired telephone.

Service Charge Server

The Service Charge Server is used to process Billing Packages (Billing Packages are used to automatically perform certain billing or replenishment operations on accounts) to allow certain charges (e.g. first use charges, immediate charges and reoccurring monthly charges) to be applied to accounts. This module also supports the optional Payment Gateway Server, to allow charges to be automatically billed to account holders' credit cards.

Page 15: Talking SIP Mobility - MVNE & MVNO and M2M Billing Solution

Advertising Module

The Advertising Module is used in conjunction with the Debit Module to allow advertising/content messages to be streamed to callers, using a third party Advertising (or In-Call Media) Server like UpSnap (www.upsnap.com), as an additional source of revenue and/or to subsidize calling for end subscribers to encourage usage and/or to help provider’s remain competitive.

Conference Module

The Conference Module is an optional module that brings reservation-based and reservation-less conferencing to Talking SIP Mobility™.  Conferencing helps to bring friends, family, colleagues, partners, suppliers and customers together by bridging time zones and geographic boundaries in a timely, natural and convenient manner. When face-to-face collaboration and communication is just not feasible, Conferencing provides a great alternative that drives inbound revenue and increases profit margins while cultivating customer loyalty and increasing subscriber retention.

End User Web Interface

The End-user web interface allows providers to give their customers the convenience of empowerment - the ability to access account information, call detail records, and their billing history whenever they desire. Used in conjunction with our Payment Gateway Server, the Web Based Interface gives customers the ability to offer an e-commerce distribution channel for self-service account provisioning and account recharge to extend the reach of an operation without consuming the costly resources.

Find Me Module (with Hosted Call Center )

The Find Me Module, also referred to as One Number Locator, Follow-Me or Simultaneous Ring, is an optional module that provides the convenience of a single telephone number for callers to use to reach subscribers where Talking SIP Mobility™ will automatically call multiple phones simultaneously (e.g. to simulate a PBX hunt group) or sequentially (e.g. office, then mobile, and then voice mail) to connect them. This module also supports the optional Hosted Call Center module to allow call center or PBX queuing to local or remote call agents.

Optional Add-On Modules

Callback Module

The Callback Module provides callback services to Talking SIP Mobility™. A caller dials a shared or dedicated access number and then hangs up after a certain number of rings before incurring any toll charges. The system authenticates the caller based on the incoming ANI or the dialed number and then calls the caller back at a preset telephone number or from where the initiating call was placed. Callback requests may be configured by an inbound call, a web page, an e-mail message, an SMS message, a click to call link, as well as by a simple but secure API.

Page 16: Talking SIP Mobility - MVNE & MVNO and M2M Billing Solution

Optional Add-On Modules

Reminder Module

The Reminder Module provides appointment, reminder and wake-up services to Talking SIP Mobility™.

Page 22: Talking SIP Mobility - MVNE & MVNO and M2M Billing Solution

Mobile IntegrationMobile PortalsTalking SIP Mobility is a truly converged services platform that allows next-generation mobile services to be tightly coupled and integrated to its wide array of VoIP services. Talking SIP Mobility integrates into the mobile core network communicating with a MAP Signaling Gateway to provide voice, SMS and data services. Talking SIP Mobility can communicate with multiple MNOs in a single platform in a high availability configuration, and multiple hosted MVNOs can share the same Mobile Portals or use their own dedicated Mobile Portal(s).

Mobile ProfilesTalking SIP Mobility supports single IMSI SIMs as well as multiple IMSI SIMs. Mobile Profiles are tied to a primary and secondary Mobile Portal (for high availability) and each profile allows you to define the pool of home route DIDs, how SMS messages are delivered, how calls are terminated to the mobile handset (e.g. MSISDN or Aux MSISDN), how MO and MT CAMEL calls are routed (e.g. host, home, or home/host) as well as how notifications are delivered to the mobile handset (e.g. USSD, Flash, or SMS) and in the desired order.

Page 23: Talking SIP Mobility - MVNE & MVNO and M2M Billing Solution

Mobile IntegrationMobile Charges FlexibilityUsing Talking SIP Mobility’s real-time billing and rating engine the MVNx or MVNO can create creative Rate Schedules (Programs/Plans) to attract and retain subscribers while ensuring adequate cost recovery for transporting calls over home and roaming partner networks. Mobile Charges can be defined based on call type, active profile, origin (which can be calculated based on a myriad of different factors (e.g. ANI, DNIS, MSC, MCC, MNC, dial pattern, etc.) as well as full or partial mobile parameters such as MSC, MCC, MNC or IMSI. Per Event and/or Per Minute charges can be specified along with billing increments and minimums depending on the mobile request being processed.

Customizable Extensible Services and Feature CodesThe Talking SIP Mobility supports a wide array of services (e.g. number activation, voice mail status, balance notification, low balance warning, SIM registration, voucher transfer, customer service, promotions, etc.) which can be assigned to different short codes/feature codes that can apply system-wide, to a subset of accounts or to a single account for maximum flexibility.

Page 24: Talking SIP Mobility - MVNE & MVNO and M2M Billing Solution

Rating FlexibilityFlexible Rating ArchitectureTalking SIP Mobility supports an extremely powerful real-time rating engine that supports prepaid, postpaid and credit limit based accounts. Rating can be performed based on origin, ANI, DNIS, call type, billing thresholds, and active profile and the cost of call can be deducted from a credit balance or one of several packaged/promotional balances. Rating supports billable, credit, free or blocked entries as well as the ability to vary the rate based on certain tiers or request durations.

Applicable Rate Plans can vary based on how many minutes/calls an account has consumed for the current period as well as based on time of day, day of week and/or date range to allow maximum flexibility and control in developing creative programs/plans that can help to attract and retain subscribers. As a converged services platform multiple services depending on how the call/request is originated or terminated can be funded by a single wallet or store of value that helps to build inertia from migration by your subscribers.
