- Flexible software allows Vodafone Business and partners to customise the way they charge for services
- Cloud based system supports Vodafone Business’s move towards new digital services, and advances 5G Standalone (5GSA) networks
Customers and strategic partners of Vodafone Business can more easily adopt future 5G services, such as dedicated network slices to support critical applications and emergency services, thanks to a new cloud-based converged charging system developed by Vodafone and Nokia.
Nokia’s Converged Charging (NCC) software is a secure and automated platform that unlocks new commercial models for both Vodafone and its business customers, partners, and third-party developers. It enables them to price and package new digital services targeted to individual end user needs in a completely different way to today’s charging mechanisms.
A motor manufacturer, for example, can tailor and charge separately for in-vehicle telematics and infotainment services, vehicle-to-vehicle and everything (V2X) communications, asset tracking and location-based services to suit the individual needs of a motorist, a fleet or road haulage firm. The platform also supports a host of Internet of Things (IoT) applications, including environmental and traffic gathering sensors, as well as devices that trade securely with each other within the Economy of Things.
