Amdocs has announced that the US operator, MetroPCS has signed an agreement under which the company will use Amdocs' Qpass digital commerce platform to deliver premium content and services to its subscribers. In addition, Amdocs will provide integration and content management services to support and efficiently manage the content.
"By integrating our platform with Amdocs' Qpass digital commerce solution, we're able to dramatically enhance the customer experience, further simplifying the merchandizing, delivery, billing, and management of rich content and services," said Roger Linquist, president and CEO of MetroPCS.
Amdocs' Qpass platform will allow MetroPCS to merchandize and market premium content to end-users by supporting merchant, offer and promotions management. The platform will also help MetroPCS maintain its relationships with content providers, providing functions such as payments, customer care, financial reporting and settlement.
"As the content market continues to grow, there is a need to ensure a standard, transparent way to manage, bill and settle digital content transactions purchased either on the service provider's portal or 'off portal' from third party media companies," said Michael Matthews, chief marketing officer of Amdocs. "Service providers and media companies require more efficient financial management, improved customer care capabilities, and real- time reporting tools to drive the success of converged digital commerce. Amdocs' Qpass solution is uniquely able to address those needs, and it will help MetroPCS continue to build and manage its premium digital content business, and to do so profitably."
