How Voucher Management works for telecoms?
Bluechip’s voucher management for telecom has the following key components
Voucher generation – A voucher is generated as the telecom operator or the dealer makes a request for it, encrypted and saved in the VMS database.
Distribution – Distribution of the voucher is done through a simple user interface. The voucher files are encrypted during the distribution making sure the voucher distribution is secure.
Voucher activation – Voucher activation requests are made through the user interface. Each request for activation carries the details of the prepaid customers MSISDN and as the customer details are found in the database the transaction is completed through the integrated payment gateway.
Notification and Reporting – The customer and the seller is notified of the activation giving the customer a seamless experience and full voucher lifecycle reporting for the telecom provider or retailer.
