Virgin Mobile USA deploys Telcordia’s content billing system

PISCATAWAY, N.J.-Telcordia announced Virgin Mobile USA has deployed its newly added real-time charging and rating functionality for carriers. The system allows carriers to set up billing for mobile games, offer customer rewards such as two-for-one ringtone downloads, support promotions and give family members access to shared accounts.

Advanced Rater is part of Telcordia’s ISCP System, and the supplier said it can provide a carrier’s customers with a more hassle-free wireless experience as Internet Protocol-based services become more popular.

“Our customers are savvy, young consumers whose mobile phones are an essential part of their lifestyle. However they use their handsets, it’s essential that we deliver each service quickly, reliably and cost effectively,” said Mike Parks, chief information officer of Virgin Mobile USA.
