"MOKO.mobi will be fully integrated into Reliance's billing and MMS systems and Reliance will carry the service as a featured "on-deck" product helping to quickly establish MOKO.mobi as a pre-eminent brand in the Indian market," according to Ian Rodwell, MOKO.mobi Limited's CEO.
"This is our first major carrier deal in India and our largest single carrier deal to date, after our recently announced multi-country deal with America Movil. According to Rodwell, while other social networks relied on growth from offering a free and predominantly online focused service, MOKO.mobi had always offered a purpose-built mobile service with a proven and integrated business model that centred on being directly integrated with the mobile carriers billing systems. "MOKO.mobi has a direct revenue share deal with Reliance and earns income from a variety of user-pays activities such as MMS, private media messaging and other premium bundled user pays charges.” Rodwell said that MOKO.mobi was available on multiple wireless carrier portals around the world including Telstra, Optus, 3, Virgin Mobile Australia & USA, and Smart Philippines, which he claimed made it directly accessible to over 50 Million mobile consumers. |
