International mobile entertainment platform company, Chukong Technologies, recently signed a global carrier billing contract with international mobile payments platform, mopay, which will enable the Beijing-based company to offer its consumers the option of paying for digital goods and services through the consumer’s telecommunication’s company invoice.

Chukong gives app developers the ability to develop, publish and monetize their content.

Developers of mobile entertainment around the world can benefit from the innovative Chukong mobile entertainment platform. The company offers developers a complete set of solutions and services that give them the ability to develop popular content, publish it, and monetize it with ease, so they can give mobile users an extremely engaging mobile gaming experience.

Now, among the different services and solutions it offers, according to the Business Wire press release, Chukong “has decided to integrate mopay’s Android software development kit (SDK) solution as an essential element in the overall billing module for game developers worldwide. The mopay interface will serve as Chukong’s Android default solution for a consumer that wants to pay for digital goods and services via carrier billing.”

The Chinese company has chosen mopay’s Android carrier billing solution to serve customers who want to pay thorough their mobile phone bills. Integrated into Chukong’s general billing module, mopay supports the regional billing methods that are the most popular for every one of its publishing territories.

mopay CEO Ingo Lippert said that the company is proud to be the carrier billing partner that was chosen by one of the most successful and innovative mobile app firms in Asia.

Chukong Technologies is striving to become a top digital distribution company and is presently working on growing its partnerships and infrastructure to improve its business opportunities. For leading Chinese mobile content developers, the company has become a trusted publishing partner. Last year, in China, it was responsible for publishing three of the top four mobile games. The new mobile payments partnership is only likely to benefit the company’s goals further.

New partnership aims to accelerate the development of mobile commerce platform

MCX, a growing mobile commerce firm, has announced that it has partnered with Paydiant, a provider of mobile payments solutions. MCX has been working to develop and launch its own mobile payments platform since 2012. This platform was expected to launch in late 2013, but MCX opted to push back the launch for several reasons. In partnering with Paydiant, MCX believes that its platform can be made better and more capable of handling the needs of consumers and businesses.

MCX to make use of Paydiant technology and services

The MCX platform is to make use of Paydiant’s cloud-based solution in order to make its mobile commerce features more robust. Using a cloud-based platform is also expected to help provide a higher degree of security to the platform, alleviating some of the concerns that consumers have in terms of mobile commerce. The mobile commerce scene has become quite attractive to hackers because many payments platforms lack the security features needed to keep financial information safe from exploitation. Lackluster security has been a major detractor for those that have been somewhat interested in mobile commerce.

Bar codes may help make platform more inclusive

The platform that MCX is developing is expected to make use of bar codes as a way to authenticate mobile payments. QR codes have been growing more common in the mobile commerce field for this purpose. The codes can be easily produced and scanned, making mobile payments somewhat more convenient. Many mobile commerce platforms make extensive use of NFC technology. There is currently a lack of NFC-enabled mobile devices available to consumers, which limits the inclusivity of many platforms.

Merchants are becoming more invested in mobile commerce

Merchants will also be able to make use of the platform from MCX. The retail sector has been growing more conscious of mobile consumers in recent years as many people begin to use their mobile devices to shop in stores. By embracing mobile commerce, these merchants may be able to remain relevant with consumers that are beginning to grow more dependent on their smartphones and tablets.
