Malaysia mobile operator, U Mobile has partnered with leading m-commerce enabler, DOCOMO Digital to give customers the option of purchasing Google Play Store content using direct carrier billing, a method which invoices digital and physical good payments directly to a mobile device bill.

The collaboration will enable U Mobile customers to purchase a plethora of digital services and contents, including Google Play´s games and apps, via their mobile phone bill seamlessly.

The payment method will be powered using DOCOMO Digital’s full payment enabler platform, which connects management tools, business intelligence, marketing, reporting and CRM capabilities into the operator’s systems, enabling it to gain insight and transparency on end user behaviour. DOCOMO Digital will also provide a range of customer care tools for consumers, ensuring they have full visibility of carrier billing transactions charged to their mobile account.

For U Mobile, the deal is more than just enabling a new way for customers to transact through mobile devices. The solution will accelerate new revenue streams in m-commerce and big data, said Docomo Digital.

Hiroyuki Sato, CEO of DOCOMO Digital
Introducing new payment methods like Direct Carrier Billing goes much further than simple technical integrations. By providing full end-to-end services we’ve helped U Mobile customers become part of the digital economy.
