Broadliner Tech Data Deutschland and Mondia, a privately held m-commerce company specialising in connecting, digitising and monetising mobile consumers, have signed a strategic partnership to enable the integration of a seamless payment service for a digital voucher offering for mobile consumers.
Under this agreement, vouchers will be made available for digital goods and services, games, virtual gift cards and memberships, as well as value credits from the world's leading publishers and manufacturers across various entertainment and consumer technology categories, among others. These digital activation codes can also be used to purchase goods and services on the world's leading gaming platforms. The digital voucher service, which is offered by Telefónica Deutschland through the O2 App Shop and operated by Mondia, can now be paid for using customers' mobile phone credit via Direct Carrier Billing (DCB).
Stefan Bichler, Director of the Software Solutions Business Unit at Tech Data, commented: "we are delighted to be working with Mondia to meet the increasing demands of digital consumption and offer our customers enhanced, personalised and secure transactions. Mondia has an impressive track record of working with global operators and is a leader in digital experiences."
"M-commerce is what we do best and the integration with Tech Data is a great addition to the wealth of existing services we offer our telco operators. We believe this integration will further enhance the value proposition of the Telefónica O2 platform for its customers", said Dr Amadeo Rahmann, CEO of Mondia Group.
