Direct Carrier Billing (DCB) or Direct Operator Billing (DOB), is an online mobile payment method which allows users to make purchases by charging payments to their mobile phone carrier bill or their prepaid mobile account. It is extremely versatile and can be integrated into all digital platforms whether web, mobile, or even consoles.
DCB is becoming mainstream with major platforms like: Google Play, XBox Store, Windows Store, and all Apple stores and service. A new research study predicts that DCB will generate $9 billion annually by 2022, more than threefold increase from 2017’s figure of $2.9 billion
DCB is extremely useful to help merchants and online businesses reach customers:
DCB scores up to 10x better conversion rates when compared with credit cards. DCB offers customers a much shorter checkout process using the device they always keep in hand. Yet, a DCB transaction is as safe and secure as a credit card transaction.
DCB offers the flexibility to offer yearly, quarterly, monthly, weekly, or even daily recurring subscription plans.
Weekly and Daily plans are a great option to eliminate barrier of entry compared with the more expensive: monthly and yearly plans.
Free trials are also available so customers try a service before committing to a subscription.
How, When, and What to charge is different and depends on user behavior. It is also market and operator specific with huge differences that need to be considered. We simply do that and in the UAE we achieved 49% more revenue for a set of services from the same customer base compared to others.
You will deal with our team - not an online bot builder - for the whole process until launch. We believe that Bots are new thus templates are standardized - blocks cannot deliver the required value.
Bots can work alone but also can transfer sessions and requests from customers to human service agents when needed. This means that Bots are focused on repetitive tasks or automated processes while humans can take care of more complex interactions. Also, when a human agent finishes a complex interactive session with a customer, he/she can close the session by transferring the customer to a Bot to finish an automated process.
Bots are made for and excel in repetitive tasks - not humans. Robots are everywhere in the physical world such as factories, farms, and more working on such repetitive tasks. This is the time when digital robots will take over such tasks and processes in the digital world.
Customers demand any time access and brands and businesses that cannot provide such access will be negatively perceived by customers. Conversational Bots offer the most human-like automated experience consistently and at any time.
Compared to a Mobile App or a Website, a Chat Bot is much simpler and requires much less effort from the UI/UX side. Think of a new release of iOS or a browser and all the needed changes on all your Mobile Apps and Web Apps to make sure it is still working properly and as intended. For Chat Bots, as long as the messenger App or Website are working fine, then the Chat Bot should work as well.
