The Premium Rate (PRM) offering allows the marketing and provisioning of information over the telephone line at a higher charging rate compared to the rate of an ordinary call. Examples of such services include weather forecasts, stock market updates and daily horoscopes. The charging of the PRM call is proportional to the duration of the call.

Key features

  • One number – every Premium Rate service can be reached by using a single number that is assigned to it.
  • Service subscriber validation – when Premium Rate service is triggered, all information about the validity of the specific service is retrieved to determine further processing.
  • Black and exception list screening – calls from certain areas or individuals may be banned for a specific service number.
  • Tariff announcement – before the charging starts, the cost of the call is announced to the service user.
  • Language selection – users can select a preferred language.

Business benefits

  • Generate additional revenues by addressing a new market segment.
  • Customize features, such as tariff plans, easily through web-based service management.
  • Reduce running costs by offering subscribers direct control of certain service administration activities.
  • Collect statistics to reflect service performance and subscriber satisfaction.
  • Deploy new service features easily as they become available.
