VAS-X Launches MVNO and MVNE Platform to Support Launch of African MVNOs

VAS-X has announced the addition of the VAS-X MVNE and MVNO platform, powered by NEXUS, to its range of mission-critical OSS/BSS solutions & value-added services to enable any brand to quickly launch and operate a neo telco or MVNO.

Becoming an MVNO allows brands to integrate mobile services in order to find new revenue streams, diversifying their customer offering and strengthening customer engagement and retention. By allowing MVNOs to use spare network capacity, Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) can also bolster revenue and expand their wholesale reach.

The MVNE/MVNO out-of-the-box solution harnesses the NEXUS platform to offer all the necessary network integrations for brands entering the mobile space. It provides a suite of built-in applications and automated workflows to enable neo telcos and MVNOs to go to market quickly and cost effectively, operate flexibly and offer excellent customer experience. This resolves the current challenges facing brands seeking to launch mobile services of high upfront costs, substantial regulatory specifications and complex legacy systems. 

VEXUS powered by Nexus equips brands for success from the start. By taking advantage of VEXUS’ network integrations and modules, new MVNOs can plug into the network, launch mobile services and run operations efficiently. The MVNO/MVNE platform can be used by both new players and established MVNOs, making it far easier for brands to get started in mobile and enabling mobile service sector innovation. Its multi-tenanted nature means MNOs can more effectively monetise connectivity.
