MTC Namibia chooses Lifetree's billing platform @Billity 3.0 for its GSM, GPRS services

Lifetree Convergence has announced that leading African network MTC Namibia has selected Lifetree's customer care and billing solution @Billity 3.0 for its GSM and GPRS services. The Lifetree solution will include @Billity - Lifetree's comprehensive convergent billing solution, ZipBill, the enhanced bill generation and EBPP solution and ZipCare, the web enabled self-care solution.

@Billity 3.0 will replace the current BSCS 6.0 system at MTC and Lifetree will carry out a migration of customers to the new system. The Lifetree solution, which will be scaled to support 50,000 post paid subscribers initially, will also include mediation and provisioning solution for GSM and GPRS services.

Lifetree's integrated billing suite will enable MTC to significantly improve operational efficiencies and lower costs, while reducing time-to-market for introduction of new, innovative services. The end-to-end solution will include comprehensive OSS functionality to support CRM, multiple and remote Point of Sales, Credit Control, Fraud Management and Churn Management. These, in conjunction with the core Billing and Rating Modules, will enable MTC to manage their subscriber base effectively while also creating and implementing new services for their customers.

In addition, value added systems such as ZipCare and ZipBill will enable MTC subscribers to use self-care tools to activate/de-activate services, view bills on-line, select tariff plans as well as post and track complaints.

Patrick Mushimba General Manager IT from MTC says "Lifetree's @Bility was selected as the preferred CCBS, because the product is an end-to-end solution which is feature rich and supports key requirements like on-line provisioning, GPRS Charging, POS, Self Care, User friendliness, and Ease of Use, and Electronic Bill Presentation either via e-mail or over the web through portals.  In addition we believe the product will support our business into the future as we roll out new VAS to meet market demand."
