There is a resistance to using credit cards on the internet and many users, particularly in the youth market, do not have credit or debit cards.
Micro-payments can overcome these issues by offering alternative payment methods that suit the customer – allowing them to pay by sending a premium text or making a voice call. All of Oxygen8 Communications customers have found that micro-billing increases revenues and the conversion of visitors to buyers. Moreover as a global company Oxygen8 Communications can provide international solutions that allow you to win business from every consumer not just those with a credit card.
How you integrate Micro-Billing or Micro-Payments will depend on the technical resource (and skill sets) that your company has. Many of Oxygen8’s customers have their own technical departments and can fully integrate Oxygen8 billing systems themselves.
For those that want ‘plug and play’ solutions Oxygen8 can provide codes which enables you to start Micro-Billing straight away - after due diligence and agreements are set-up. For those that require custom integration Oxygen8 can provide specialist integration services and solutions based on Oxygen8’s platform.
Oxygen8 offers the most comprehensive selection of Premium Rate voice and mobile billing services in the industry. This is either Mobile Billing or Premium Rate 900 numbers. In these cases the collection is done by the Mobile or Landline Network operators in that given country.
Their account service is the best I've experienced...
We have been working with Oxygen8 for a number of years. In this time they have been accommodating to our needs and their account service is the best I have experienced in the last 5 years of involvement in the Premium SMS industry. It's great to pick up the phone and speak to a real person rather than talking to a computer generated voice service!
