LONDON-Singapore-based wireless carrier StarHub has rolled out premium mobile data services to its customers based on a real-time and prepaid data charging framework from Megisto.
Deploying the Mobile Service Delivery System (MSDS) supplied by Megisto has allowed StarHub to meet the growing demand for prepaid GPRS-based data services.
The MSDS enables the Singaporean service provider to offer real-time charging for data services based on data volume, time of day or a customer’s roaming status. The system also supports the delivery of premium mobile data content, such as premium screensaver downloads and personalized call tones, to StarHub’s new prepaid subscribers. For example, the solution allows StarHub to manage prepaid customers’ access to WAP/Web services based on their real-time account balances.
