Billing for Sony Ericsson

Sony Ericsson required a service that would allow its customers to pay for content downloads via Premium SMS.  Internetq’s service empowered the company to charge for products via a user’s mobile phone

Goal

To provide a micro-billing mechanism that allows users of Sony Ericsson content to pay for downloads via SMS text messages.

Procedure

Users of Sony Ericsson services require credits for video and picture downloading and playing games. In order to advance their credits, members send a text message and thus they receive back a sms confirming the upgrade.

Time of completion

Billing services can be set within 5 working days.

Life cycle of services

The application operates successfully since the year 2004

How it works

  • User: access pre installed java catalogue and chooses content
  • Java application notice: allow to send MO SMS to 54999
  • User: send
  • Return message: push download of chosen Sony Ericsson content
