VeriSign has announced that Iraqi based Al Mazaya Telecommunications has chosen its PrePayIN to support its prepay service in Iraq. The new service, which is scheduled to launch in the first half of 2007, is the first installation of PrePayIN in the Middle East.
"VeriSign PrePayIN allows us to launch feature-rich prepay wireless service to Iraq and provide a superior customer experience to millions of users," said Mr. Alaa Sami Kazim, Chairman of Al Mazaya Telecommunications. "In addition to enabling us to compete in the growing Iraqi prepay market by offering next-generation services, this solution allows us to accurately bill customers in real-time."
Al Mazaya Telecommunications will use PrePayIN rating flexibility to deliver targeted plans for voice and short message services (SMS), popular in the Middle East. The real-time billing will provide customers with detailed, up-to-date usage information and account status. The service will also allow carriers to bill for new services, including next-generation content and data services such as streaming video, file transfer and MMS."
