Sprint, the third-largest U.S. wireless provider has selected ItsOn's Smart Service™ Virtual Network Technology, a cloud-based virtual network platform to offer personalized service experiences for its prepaid customers. ItsOn said in a statement that its technology will power future Sprint prepaid mobile data, voice and messaging service offers.
ItsOn, the leader in Mobile Smart Service technology last year introduced a wireless service called Zact that allows customers to dynamically adjust their plans on the go, changing their voice minutes, text messages or data. With the adoption of its technology by Sprint, ItsOn will no longer be offering the service under its umbrella. Existing Zact subscribers can choose to retain their Zact device and re-establish the service under Sprint’s new offer, or simply discontinue their Zact service.
"We are thrilled to close this major agreement with Sprint to power the next generation of intuitive, convenient and personally relevant mobile service offers for no-contract wireless customers. Sprint will be the first major mobile operator in the world to commercially launch a virtual, end-to-end, automated mobile network policy design and management platform. We are proud to help Sprint usher in the next wave of engaging, customer-centric mobile experiences. This is exactly in line with our mission at ItsOn – empowering mobile operators to offer better choices for their mobile service customers. Zact proved to mobile operators around the world that mobile users love the personal service customization that ItsOn’s technology provides. Now it’s time to put the distribution capacity and power of Sprint’s prepaid brands behind a new and improved service that offers even more choices and increased freedom for Zact’s current customers and millions more. Our business model is to supply mobile operators with the disruptive cloud service technology they need to continue growing the global mobile service market and we are proud to help Sprint lead the world to expanded consumer choice in wireless services.”
- Greg Raleigh, Founder and CEO, ItsOn
“With ItsOn’s technology, Sprint sees an opportunity to give no-contract consumers greater choice and real-time control of their mobile service. ItsOn’s cloud-based solution enables a unique user experience and could help reduce our timelines for designing and launching distinctly new service offers. These new capabilities provide a very personalized on-device customer experience– both for individuals and families.”
