Telephone Booth or Call Shop Providers

Service providers use indirect access and can save on the originating calls to the voice switch with SDSL lines. Software is available to control phone booths and on-line billing of customers.

Real-time billing

The service provider can real-time bill the prepaid (debit) call shop user. The system checks the user's account balance before authorizing the call and always terminates the call on zero credit. With billing platforms, both the call shop owner and the service provider can view and download Call Detail Records (CDRs) in real time. The posted CDRs provide all the details: call timestamp, duration, call leg properties, termination cause, callee, caller, ASR and QoS.
