MOBILEWAY® SHOWCASES M-ALERT COUPONS AT M-COMMERCE WORLD ASIA 2002 - 16 April 2002 Return to press releases


Mobileway®, leader in managing mobile transactions across the globe, will showcase Celph Alert, a mobile flyer cum coupon mechanism jointly developed with CELPH, a developer and application provider of mobile value-added services for Jurong Point Shopping Centre at Mobile Commerce World Asia 2002 (16th - 18th April 2002), at Booth 4D07, SICEC.

Launched in the beginning of 2002, the Celph Alert is an opt-in, permission-based, carrier agnostic marketing mechanism delivered via SMS that allows mobile users, to selectively receive m-flyers and coupons from participating merchants in the form of a text message on their mobile phones. The Celph Alert system is powered by an automated web-based publishing system developed by CELPH and Mobileway provides the means of delivery to mobile phones. Results from pilot trials were encouraging as it showed that the redemption rate of the m-coupons averaged one in every five users who opted the service.

"With the launch of this service, we have received numerous enquiries from shopping mall owners located as far as Germany, who are keen to implement the same technology in their malls," said Cyrille Even, General Manager and Vice President of Mobileway Asia Pacific. "Mobile payments will also become more pervasive as the next step in global wireless adoption. Mobileway is poised to deploy its revenue sharing, billing and settlement solutions to its partners to manage transactions that flow inside the mobile commerce value chain. This will create additional, high margin, revenue streams for the vendors involved, as well as providing a positive and seamless end-user m-commerce experience."

On 18th April 2002 at 2pm, Mr Cyrille will also be sharing with conference delegates a case study on the success story of the ATV Bi-weekly Interactive TV Quiz - "Revenue sharing model: Leveraging technology to monetise content in a competitive environment".
