In this report we analyse the convergence trend and provide examples of operators who have chosen to take the concept of prepay and postpay convergence one step further with the implementation of advanced cross billing solutions aimed at the business and to a lesser extent, consumer segments.
Cross billing solutions are used to address the demand for separate billing treatment of personal and business calls particularly in countries with a high penetration of prepaid phones. The ability to offer a "split billing" function is key for two main reasons:
- It helps drive mobile phone adoption across the business segment as it removes fears of phone abuse by employees particularly in the large enterprise segment.
- It eliminates the need to carry two handsets and two subscriptions.
