E-Plus Selects Redknee mCommerce Gateway
-- Mobile Bill Payment and Purchasing Solution Provides E-Subscribers with a Richer Mobile Experience
TORONTO, CANADA – December 13, 2005 - Redknee Inc., a leading provider of innovative infrastructure software that delivers value-added personalized services and content for mobile users today announced it has secured a contract to provide its new mCommerce Gateway (MCG) to E-Plus, a leading mobile network operator in Germany. E-Plus is implementing Redknee’s MCG to provide subscribers with the ability to make mobile payments for retail goods, content and media via their mobile handsets, so they can better manage and control their expenditures. Redknee’s MCG provides a secure interface for managing multiple content partnerships, accepting credit and debit cards and pre- and post-paid accounts, allowing the operator to define a monthly maximum limit for mobile retail spending.
"The intersection of mobility and retailing creates a significant opportunity for carriers to generate new sources of revenue, while providing subscribers convenient purchasing services for today's fast-paced world,” said Lucas Skoczkowski, CEO of Redknee. "E-Plus is the latest of our customers who have demonstrated a strong commitment to the success of mobile commerce, and we are pleased they chose Redknee to provide the necessary critical software infrastructure."
E-Plus plans to complete deployment of MCG by the end of this year.
