Challenges
Applink was exploring the opportunities to become a content provider by building and deploying its services and monetizing them through mobile value-added services. To monetize these services, Applink needed to find payment methods that allow them to charge users for their service. Hence, Applink needed to connect with various aggregators and DCB providers to launch its services in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and the UAE.
The company faced several challenges when it came to creating its own services and offers and launching them in the MENA region. It also struggled to find a reliable platform to deploy and host its content and provide payment.
Approach
Applink attempted to solve its challenges by trying to build its own platform to host its content and connect with aggregators and DCB providers.
However, this approach was costly, time-consuming, and not effective. Applink realized that it needed help to overcome its challenges, and it turned to MobiBox.
