After a long and competitive tendering process, Orange today confirmed that Freever has been awarded the contract to deliver community services on a group-wide basis across its European operations.
Freever will deploy a totally interoperable turnkey solution using SMS, WAP and MMS platforms. The growth and popularity of chat services has meant that this kind of solution is becoming increasingly in demand amongst international mobile telephony operators who are seeking partners that are able to deploy and adapt their products and services across multiple markets.
Freever’s proprietary range of community services enables users to take part in public forums as well as SMS, MMS, WAP and Voice chat rooms. These services provide members with an opportunity to meet new friends and express themselves in a fun, dynamic and secure environment which is supervised and moderated around the clock, 24/7. Freever’s specialist editorial teams stimulate debate through a range of programmes including theme-based shows, games and interviews with top film, music and sporting celebrities.
Freever, which has positioned itself at the forefront of technological innovation, is investing heavily in researching and developing new products and new functionality. Over the past 12 months, members of Freever’s mobile communities will have seen their service enhanced with the deployment of more user-friendly and intuitive WAP portals, the introduction of colour WAP, MMS, global positioning technologies and video streaming.
Currently, Freever’s communities consist of over 2 million members across Britain, France, Belgium, Italy, Ireland, Germany and Spain.
