Real-time Monetization Opportunities Driving Revenue for Communications Service Providers

As competitiveness continues to ramp in the communications market, Communications Service Providers (CSPs) must adjust and evolve to dynamic market conditions. Introducing new products and services at a rapid pace is critical to gaining market share and preserving the lucrative long-term revenue streams of loyal customers. Adding pressure is the need to contain operational costs as providers innovate and grow, difficult with traditional on-premise solutions.

SaaS subscription billing and management solutions empower CSPs with the flexibility to adapt to changing market conditions without driving up operational costs. The right solution delivers against current requirements and supports new requirements as the CSP grows. Couple this with the right rating engine and CSPs gain the ability to blend revenue models including one-time charges (for example the purchase of a device), recurring subscription fees, as well as usage-based billing – including real-time rating and charging capabilities. Now CSPs can continuously innovate and accommodate changing customer requirements.

Join B/OSS, Aria Systems and MATRIXX Software for a live educational Webinar where you will learn how to:

• Enable customers to view service plans, make purchases, and manage their accounts independently
• Introduce new products and services quickly as well as adjust pricing and plans for your existing offerings
• Immediately activate, provision and de-provision services in real-time
• Calculate complex fee structures  – with multiple factors like usage, geography, prior service credits, proration, and more

Register today for this insightful Webinar and walk away with valuable insights on how to implement a billing system capable of handling the evolving CSP landscape.
