Bango Wi-Fi On-Bill payment boosts mobile content sales by 25%

Smartphone customers benefit from click-to-pay operator billing experience – even using Wi-Fi

Bango, the leading mobile payment and analytics company, today announced Wi-Fi enabled operator billing for smartphones. While mobile operator payments deliver significantly more successful transactions, than traditional payment methods, mobile content revenues have been impacted by the increasing popularity of smartphones, such as Blackberry and iPhone. Because these devices can connect to the web through Wi-Fi, operator billing that normally relies on traffic coming through operator gateways, becomes unavailable, making it difficult for consumers to buy content.

In response, Bango has developed an innovative technology that delivers the optimal operator on-bill payment experience to every mobile phone, even when consumers connect through Wi-Fi. Bango’s new Wi-Fi on-bill payment delivers the highest conversion rates and enables both operators and content providers to capture revenue from this growing segment of their customer base.
