More Amber™ Services

Reversed Billing USSD

Reversed Billing USSD

PMT™ has pioneered a billing methodology whereby a corporate can pay for the USSD sessions that Customers use instead of the Customers paying for a session with their airtime.

Free Bind USSD

Free binds are short codes that are free of charge for Customers – ideal for enabling the selling of airtime over USSD when Customers do not have airtime to dial USSD. PMT™ work with WASP departments in Networks to enable these services for our clients. For more information please contact our WASP department.

Session Resume

Session Resume

PMT has pioneered Session Resume in South Africa, whereby our intelligent Amber™ solution maps the last Menu position that the Customer had on the interface when their session terminates. If the Customer dials the shortcode again, an option is provided to resume the same session that was last accessed, while remembering all data captured in the process.

This saves time and money for Consumers on your platform, and increases convenience and ease of access.

SIM Securitisation and Verification

As part of PMT’s passion for Consumer Safety, PMT™ pioneered a solution called SIM Securitisation and Verification (SSV) Service with the primary purpose of detecting and preventing fraud.

 

What is the RISK?

If your Customers’ SIMs have been compromised by means of a SIM Swap, any 3D secure verification or OTP to verify your Customer will be compromised. This potentially leads to thousands in losses to fraud, not to mention reputational and operational risk.

 

What to do?

Ensure that your Customer Interfaces are securitised against SIM Swaps through our SIM Securitisation service, which provides you with the information needed to intervene if a SIM Swap takes place.
