by Huei Song - June 7, 2013 - 1 Comment

U Mobile and EA MVNO

U Mobile and Enabling Asia recently announced their partnership to enable Malaysian companies to revolutionize their business model by launching their own prepaid branded mobile services. Enabling Asia (EA) is Asia’s first Mobile Virtual Network Aggregator (MVNA), which purchases wholesale mobile airtime from its partner mobile operator, and then sells it to a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO).

This means that brands can now easily and quickly set up their own prepaid branded mobile services in less than 90 days. EA will offers brands integrated solutions from licensing, billing, and technical solutions to call centre support.

“We are delighted to be the first in Asia to offer companies the opportunity to revolutionize their business model. Brands with their own branded mobile services are able to generate sustainable and additional revenue by connecting directly with their consumers.

“Launching your own branded mobile services or MVNOs enables you to communicate with your customers directly. With a custom branded mobile offering, you can optimize your marketing and distribution channels, as well as reward your customers through exclusive offers.” – Mr. Loke Yee Siong, Chief Executive Officer at EA.

U Mobile and EA MVNO

Examples of successful MVNOs include Tesco Mobile and Ikea Family in the UK, as well as 7-Connect by 7 Eleven in Singapore. EA is confident that it will launch mobile service for five brands within 12 months from its launch which was held in K.L. late last month.
