Dynamic Tariffing (also known as Dynamic Discounting or Dynamic Discount Solution) 〔App+frica – African News & Culture, http://appfrica.net/blog/archives/662〕〔MTN Group, http://www.mtn.com/ProductsServices/MTN_Zone.aspx〕 is the technology used by MTN Group,〔 the Africa and Middle East telecoms provider,〔〔MTN Group, http://www.mtn.com/AboutMTNGroup/〕 to operate MTN Zone, a prepaid-per-second billing price plan that offers potential discounts of up to 95 per cent on mobile phone calls for MTN prepaid subscribers making on-network calls.〔Africa’s Wonderkids, Comm., December 2008, http://comm.ae/2008/12/17/africas-wonderkids/〕 Dynamic Tariffing is a charging solution that is able to offer a mobile network customer a discount based on the amount of capacity available at their current location in the network. The software looks at the GSM radio network from where the customer is calling and assesses the amount of capacity available in the network. Depending on the amount of capacity available,the customer is awarded a discount that appears on customer mobile handset screens.〔〔Modern Ghana, June 2008, http://www.modernghana.com/news/170721/1/mtn-launches-mtn-zone.html〕 This discount is available for the duration of the phone call.〔 The discount available to customers changes periodically depending on the amount of capacity available at their specific location in the network. The more capacity there is at their location, the higher the discount that is offered.〔 Digitata is the inventor of the Dynamic Tariffing™ System (DTS). DTS provides mobile network operators with a unique platform to attract new customers, retain the existing customer base and generate profitable revenues, while protecting the quality of the mobile network (GSM and WCDMA). ==History== MTN Zone was co-developed by MTN South Africa and Ericsson,〔〔Ericsson/MTN Group, http://www.ericsson.com/ericsson/successtories/brochures/issue1-2009/pdf/MTN-South-Africa-2pg-Screen-PDF.pdf〕 a leading provider of telecommunication and data communication systems, and was tested in Grahamstown, South Africa.〔 MTN Zone is available from MTN South Africa 〔 and MTN Ghana and several other MTN operations across Africa.〔〔The Ghanaian Times, June 2008, http://www.newtimesonline.com/content/view/16617/147/〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dynamic Discount」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
