“Direct consumer charging by mobile operators remains the favorite purchasing method of consumers to get entertainment content or to access services over SMS or Mobile Internet/WAP media,” says Stanislas Chesnais, Chairman and CEO, Netsize. “We witness 800% transaction volume growth year-to-year mainly held up by Mobile Internet/WAP services growth. Our higher aggregation level enables the best revenue pay-out to publishers. Covering more than 100 mobile operators in 28 countries makes Netsize the global market leader.”

“The Netsize mPayment solution enables publishers and content providers to achieve 12% more revenue in comparison with other implementations, thanks to an in-depth knowledge of the operator’s payment platforms,” says Stanislas Chesnais. mPayment also enables reaching any consumer worldwide over alternative methods such as credit card, PayPal™, and other e-Wallets.

The automatic and transparent consumer authentication makes mobile purchasing easy and avoids users from having to open an online account. The secured transaction is initiated from a single click without entering sensitive data which ensures the best transaction achievement ratio. The ease of use and convenience quickly recognized by consumers enables mobile handsets to be the tool for purchasing physical goods,” says Stanislas Chesnais.

Analytics is an integral part of the mPayment solution. mPayment Analytics provides customers with a billing and payment dashboard with three statistics views. The summary view shows the key performance indicators such as revenue and transaction quantity split by country and handset model. The real-time statistics view shows all processed transactions allowing users to filter up to twenty criteria. The customized statistics view enables users to build his view by service, country, operator, or business model (subscription or pay-per-use).
