U:Choose is Utiba's revolutionary pre-paid top -up solution
that has been deployed with major customers such as Globe Telecom
in the Philippines and Airtel in India.
U:Choose allows the operators to eliminate manual distribution
of vouchers. This eliminates the cost of the vouchers, the
cost of distribution and the cost of stolen cards.

The benefits are massive savings allowing the voucher value to
be dropped. This means that new subscribers can be added that previously
could not afford higher vouchers values.
Because stock is held virtually then the cost of holding stock
and the cash tied up in stock is reduced. Stock turns are improved
in the channel improving profitability. This leads to a quantum
leap in distribution outlets and the addition of new business based
on micro credit principles. Distribution is widely spread and density
is increased.
Low voucher values gives access to a new subscriber base and countries
that have lowered top up denominations have seen subscriber acquisition
jump.
Sales and Commission management is paramount in distribution. U:Choose
provides commission management that allows the operator to control
the way commission is dispensed as well as set a number of commission
rules including:
- Commission bonus based on revenue
- Commission bonus based on frequency of top ups
- Commission flexibility by voucher range
Distributor Portal - Web based access for Distributors and Dealers,
the ability for agents to access reports plus additional Workflow
to allow stock ordering from the down-line agent to its up-line
agent.
The corporate portal allows a corporation to establish its own internal
people to set up a hierarchy to match their own mobile users. For
example a company that has 4 sales geographical areas, each with
4 sales district managers and each with 10 salespeople. Each person
can have a unique top up schedule automated or manual. This can
be managed securely by the corporation.
U:Choose supports complex reporting and auditing to assist management
of the distribution channel, and facilitate customer care.
U:Choose is based on the Service Delivery platform which is Utiba's
proven architecture used in live commercial operations with millions
of subscribers and hundreds of TPS. Clients can be confident that
the U:Choose solution can meet targeted transaction rates.
Clients can embark on a phased implementation, expanding the functionality
and capacity to meet resultant U:Choose growth. We use Industry

The Service Delivery Platform supports common Operator and Banking
Standards. Our rapid development environment allows customised interfaces
