Ericsson IPX first with live Payforit services in the <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />UK

The Ericsson (NASDAQ: ERIC) IPX WAP billing solution is the first mobile payment system to host a live payment service complying with the Payforit scheme on the T-Mobile network in the UK.

Ericsson is further securing a leading position in the growing multimedia, content and payment solutions sector by conforming to the Payforit mobile payment scheme. Through Ericsson IPX content providers can now be connected to more than 650 million subscribers worldwide who can buy mobile content.

Payforit is a mobile payment scheme being promoted to provide a safe and trustworthy environment for consumers buying mobile content. It is being applied to purchases made through off-portal WAP session mobile payment mechanisms.

Gavin Dent, Group Manager – Commercial Partners at T-Mobile UK, says: “We are excited at the huge opportunity Payforit represents in the mobile payments space. T-Mobile has now accredited several Payforit service providers including Ericsson IPX, who were the first on the T-Mobile network to launch a live Payforit service (wap.logogo.com).”

Peter Garside, Regional Manager, Ericsson IPX, says, “We are proud to have established an excellent early position with Payforit. Ericsson has launched WAP Billing services in 12 countries and with this experience has been able to quickly meet UK operator requirements. Ericsson IPX has now been through the accreditation processes of all UK mobile operators and is operating live services on three networks.”

With cross-operator support, the “Trusted Mobile Payment Framework” underpinning Payforit governs how merchants, accredited payment intermediaries and operators co-operate to make mobile payments a secure and seamless process.

Further to developing trust in mobile payment, Payforit aims at creating transparency and ease of use for consumers. A set of “screen style” rules govern how payment pages look and function, simplifying and securing how users purchase content via a standardized interface presented on their mobile phones.

Ericsson is shaping the future of Mobile and Broadband Internet communications through its continuous technology leadership. Providing innovative solutions in more than 140 countries, Ericsson is helping to create the most powerful communication companies in the world.

BOOST MOBILE, WEST COAST CUSTOMS & AirG DEMONSTRATE POWER OF MOBILE MARKETING

Mobile Platform Most Effective Way to Reach Customers

February 27, 2007, IRVINE, Calif. and VANCOUVER, British Columbia – Boost Mobile®, a lifestyle-based telecommunications brand that develops and distributes wireless communications products for the youth market, and AirG, a global leader in powering mobile communities and wireless social networking, announced today the results of one of the largest mobile marketing campaigns in the United States.  The Get Hookt Up With a New Ride campaign combined the resources of Boost Mobile, AirG and West Coast Customs – the Kingz of Customs – to offer Boost Mobile customers across the country the opportunity to win a new, fully customized Dodge Charger.  The winner of the contest is James Fauntleroy of <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Burlington, New Jersey, one of ten children and who also works at a local gas station.

Between October 15, 2006 and January 15, 2007, more than 1.5 million entries were received for the Get Hookt Up With A New Ride campaign via multiple online and offline channels including the mobile phone through Boost Hookt – the popular mobile community on Boost Mobile, retail mail-in, a national radio text to join campaign, an online signup promoted through MySpace viral referrals, and online signups through the West Coast Customs and Boost Mobile websites.  Throughout the campaign period, more than 98 percent of the 1.5+ million entries were received through mobile phones via the Boost Hookt mobile community, demonstrating that the mobile phone is rapidly becoming the fastest and easiest way for advertisers to interact with consumers. 

“Boost Hookt demonstrates Boost Mobile’s commitment to providing its customers with new and innovative ways to communicate and stay in touch with their friends,” said Boost Mobile Director of Value Added Services Craig Thole.  “Based on the phenomenal results revealed today, we believe that Boost Hookt can also act as an important business platform for advertisers and media companies to engage and interact with consumers on their mobile phones, while at the same time upholding the brand values and consumer experience of Boost Mobile.”

AirG recently conducted a series of surveys in its community where it took just 22 minutes to survey 10 thousand users, whereby community members proactively provided valuable insights into their spending habits and behavior, and revealed the importance of the mobile platform for marketers and advertisers.  For example, 65.6% of users surveyed cite texting as their favorite cell phone activity, 75% prefer chatting on their phone to watching television and 59% do not personally own a PC.

“Through this national campaign, we have demonstrated that the mobile platform should become a part of every media buyer’s marketing mix,” said Frederick Ghahramani, Director, AirG.  “Mobile communities like Boost Hookt captivate users every day, providing advertisers a tremendous platform to formulate creative and interactive campaigns that engage customers and effectively promote their brands.” 

“I am thrilled with the outcome of teaming up with AirG and Boost Mobile.  This successful multi-media campaign has helped to take West Coast Customs to the next level, as well as give us the opportunity to reach out to our fans in a whole new way,” said Ryan Haus, CEO of West Coast Customs.

Boost Hookt is a private labeled mobile community on Boost Mobile, powered by AirG.  Boost  Hookt has multiple unique features such as instant messaging, picture profiles, blogging, public and private messaging, targeted promotions and contests, and comes complete with AirG’s suite of mobile community software including the Community Marketing Engine, Community Patrol, Community Storefront, and Community Marketing Toolkit.  Mobile users can access Boost Hookt via a browseable version through the Boost LIVE deck, or through downloadable and embedded versions on Boost Mobile handsets.

TeriMobile Company Releases Its Mobile Flyers Project Mobile Flyers – Discount At Hand

TeriMobile has released its new solution for mobile marketing – the mobile flyers – onto the final Beta-testing stage.

Mobile flyer is the electronic version of a traditional printed flyer delivered to a customer’s or prospect’s mobile device. The mobile flyers are a good substitute and complementor to the printed flyers: creating an electronic flyer is less costly since it does not require the equipment for printing and it takes less time than it does for the paper flyers. Moreover, the company will have a chance to track the actual impact of the distribution of mobile flyers, which becomes very difficult with the printed analogue – you never know who and when picked up your printed flyer, you never know whether he/she has read it, and you don’t really get a clue of how many prospects have just passed by your flyer.

You can launch marketing campaigns using mobile flyers if you are in the retail business – offering discounts, you can deliver the mobile flyers if you own a café, a bar or a club to offer discount menus or free snacks and drinks. If you work at a cinema, then just send some flyers out to increase traffic to your place during low hours or for movies on low demand.
