What is mobile carrier billing?

Mobile carrier billings are payment services that allow customers to pay for products and more together with their mobile phone charges using each carrier’s ID / password authentication.

Since carrier payments make paying simple, they are expected to improve the level of convenience for customers who make payments with their smartphones.

When making contracts with each carrier in-house, merchants must deal with applications and accounting processes for each, but contracting through us makes it possible to consolidate them.

In addition, with our company, you can implement the payment services of three carriers at once: "SoftBank Mobile Wallet," "d Payment," and "au Kantan Kessai (Easy Payment)."

4 Benefits

1. Expand sales opportunities

Payment methods that can be used even without a credit card

Mobile carrier billings are available to younger customers who do not have credit cards and customers who may prefer not to enter their card information on the Web, and the use of carrier payments has been expanding in recent years.

Reduce cart abandonment with easy operation

Unlike credit card payments, mobile carrier billings can be made simply by entering a 4-digit PIN code registered with the carriers, without having to enter a long card number. As a result, payments can easily be made even on a small smartphone screen or on the train, letting you anticipate reductions in cart abandonment.

3. Safe without risk of uncollected payments

For transactions where the payment has been successfully processed, the carriers will take over the credit claim for the price of the product and bill the customer together with their mobile phone charges.

The money transferred to us from the carriers will then be collectively paid out to you.
