A1 Telekom Austria Group Wholesale Team as Trusted Voice Partner for International Carriers

The Wholesale unit of A1 Telekom Austria Group is recognized as an international carrier with its own network and core infrastructure, interconnected with 200+ operators, 25 Mio. fixed line and mobile customers in 7 countries and an extended product portfolio covering all telco services. With many years of experience in the telecommunications sector, the Wholesale team offers an excellent platform for high quality international and national voice traffic, specialists and professional tools enable the monitoring of voice quality, mitigating fraud and optimizing international routing.

As the international voice business is declining in volumes and revenues (e.g. due to the EU regulation effect, which strongly restricts termination rates), carriers at some point begin to draw their attention away from international voice business towards other business areas, opening potential for offers provided by other companies. By shifting both focus and resources solely onto the retail business, operators might delegate remaining duties to external companies, such as A1 Telekom Austria Group, which are specialized in these areas. This results in several advantages for the operators: By avoiding to deal with an ever increasing number of fraud cases and related financial risks, operators will minimize fraud risks (pls. see the Anti Wangiri Tool athttps://newsroom.a1.group/news-a1-telekom-austria-group-announces-successful-testing-of-tool-against-wangiri-fraud-ping-calls?id=103773&menueid=14595&l=english) and increase the margin of the international voice business. Experience shows that margin increase depending from the room of optimization can be higher than +20%.

The telecoms industry is characterized, among other things, by a constant stream of new, cost-intensive innovations that are launched on the market in rapid succession. Operators thus might avoid further investments in new interconnect-technologies and OSS/BSS (e.g. IPSec, VoIPX, HD Voice, VoLTE, blockchainsettlement, origin based rating and many more) and stick to a slim cost structure (from CAPEX to OPEX), also driven by a reduction of headcounts in the areas of network operations, routing, invoicing, reconciliation, reporting which depending from the efficiency of the organization could reach more than 80%.

Those retail oriented voice operators, showing a significant market share such as MNOs, MVNOs and FNOs, are in good hands with the voice specialists of A1 Telekom Austria Group Wholesale. By concentrating on their retail voice business and outsourcing remaining duties, these operators will reach a higher level of efficiency, reduce financial and fraud risks and thus will become more competitive and robust in an ever increasing tough industry.
