Telefonica has entered into a contract with Verizon Global Wholesale to use its ‘white label’ service for meeting its multinational customer requirements for wireless services in the US. The mobility service includes wireless voice, text messaging and broadband packages.
As per the terms of the contract, Telefonica will manage and brand the wireless services it provides to its MNC customers in the US, as well as bundle the services with others it offers.
The company said that the service meets the needs of wholesale customers by providing offerings ranging from complex data technologies such as Ethernet, SONET and IP services to value-added services like data security, cloud computing and professional services as well as traditional voice services.
In addition, the service provides a choice between per minute and per megabyte bulk pricing, as well as bundled voice and data plan pricing options. Through these options along with the availability of a suite of BlackBerry offerings, wholesale clients can customise their offerings to address the specific needs of their customers.
According to Telefonica, Verizon Global Wholesale also provides technical expertise in sales and support and carries an inventory of white-labeled handsets and aircards available for purchase and customisation.
Fernando Astiaso, director of Telefonica, said: "The agreement with Verizon enables us to offer to our MNC customers a high-quality wireless service in the USA, enhancing our managed mobility value proposition to our multinational customers in this important market."
