Redknee Congratulates Digicel on Launching Services in Fiji, Vanuatu and Tonga
Redknee Selected to Provide Converged Billing and Personalized Services to Digicel's Pacific Island Operations
TORONTO - November 19, 2008 - Redknee (TSX: RKN; AIM: RKN), a leading provider of mission-critical convergent billing and charging
software and solutions for communications service providers, congratulates Digicel on launching mobile services across three new markets -
Fiji, Vanuatu and Tonga. As part of its rollout plan and launch, Digicel has selected Redknee's Turnkey Converged Billing solution across
these three South Pacific islands. This extends the successful launch of the Company's convergent billing solution at Digicel's Samoa
operations in 2006 and Papua New Guinea operations in 2007.
The deployment of Redknee's solution enables Digicel to rate and charge for a wide range of pre-paid and post-paid services across
voice, SMS and data.
Redknee's Turnkey Converged Billing solution provides Digicel with a platform not only for the rating and charging of services, but with
the ability to quickly tailor rate calling plans, and launch new loyalty-based promotions and services.
Operating in Fiji, Vanuatu, Tonga, Papua New Guinea and Samoa, Digicel required a flexible convergent billing solution enabling both
centrally controlled and island specific configurations. Redknee's flexible modular software architecture enabled Digicel to meet its
aggressive launch schedule while ensuring maximum cost effectiveness.
Eugene O'Shaughnessy, Group CTO of South Pacific Digicel, added:
"Redknee's Turnkey Converged Billing gave us the flexibility we needed to mix and match for the disparate geographies that we operate
in. The successful rollout of these solutions means that our customers have been enjoying the benefits of services such as real-time
charging and enhanced messaging since the day of deployment."
Lucas Skoczkowski, CEO at Redknee commented:
"We are very excited to support Digicel's global business with this multi-year, multi-million dollar opportunity for Redknee. The
deployment in Digicel Pacific further demonstrates the completeness and flexibility of Redknee's mission critical solution, while
underscoring Redknee's commitment to support our customers' business globally. Redknee continues to gain market share in the real-time,
turnkey converged billing space, especially in the innovative and high growth markets of Africa, the Middle East and Asia Pacific."
Redknee also supports Digicel in the Caribbean and Latin American region, with its recently deployed Turnkey Converged Billing solution
to enable converged billing and data charging for its customers in Honduras, El Salvador and Panama.
