SLA Mobile has announced an agreement with Blue Turtle Technologies to bring managed digital services to the South African market.
Blue Turtle will distribute a range of services from SLA Mobile, a white-labeled mobile solutions provider, including direct operator billing and identity management to the African and Latin American markets.
“Partnering with Blue Turtle further enhances our delivery capabilities to the rapidly growing African market,” said Amelia Power, head of sales and marketing at SLA Mobile. “By working in partnership with Blue Turtle and pooling our years of expertise together, we can provide a seamless and secure mobile experience to African subscribers.”
The explosion of new applications, devices and content in the mobile environment has opened new challenges for enterprises of all sizes. Justin Arnoldi, operations manager of Blue Turtle’s Application Management group, explained.
“Blue Turtle continues to search for partners that have a unique competitive advantage which solves real challenges for our clients,” he said. “In the last year, we have seen the market demand for direct operator billing grow at a staggering rate, as operators start to see the revenue opportunities. These new revenue opportunities are critical for operators as margins from traditional services (especially voice) are starting to decline. From both a technology and thought leadership perspective, SLA Mobile is the clear leader in the market and we are very excited to be partnering.”
