Automated Card Payments Over The Phone

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008

If you need a line set up to take a caller’s credit or debit card, take a payment, then proceed with whatever service you need - give us a call for quick set-up!

Maybe you’d like to offer a telephone service to complete a web-order. Or take payment to stock-up on a customer’s account credits. Or to simply generate a PIN number to confirm payment, not a problem!

Here’s what you need - a Protx merchant account. That’s it. We will take your account details and allow automatic phone payments directly into your account. Could it be simpler?

Call our sales team today for more information.

Secure your lines with PINs

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008

Ever wanted people to call a service but need a PIN number to gain access? Problem solved!

Effective immediately we can now offer a PIN-protected service to customers. You send us one or more databases of PINs and which lines they should be active on. You can even dial in and expire them.

Concerned about customers sharing their PINs? Answer: Limit their use! Simple tell us how to lock down the PIN numbers - most people will do so by CLI but it might be something else (you decide). This way you can for example allow PINs to be used by no more than two different CLIs.

The PINs themselves can be used any number of times - but by restricting them down by CLI you keep your customers happy while preventing mass sharing at the same time.

Call our sales team for advice today.

SMS Charge Notifications

Thursday, November 30th, 2006

One of the most annoying aspects of the mobile charging industry has been the way in which billing has occurred. You’ve often not been able to confirm a charge has been made before content is delivered.

With our powerful API, you can send multiple messages in a single call, and we’ll let you know via an API call-back when they’ve all been charged successfully, enabling delivery with a far lower risk attached.

See our SMS Bill Payment Notification API for more details.
