Syniverse Continues to Expand its Data Clearing Reach Throughout Asia Pacific

  
    
  
  
    
      Syniverse Technologies 
      (NYSE:SVR), a leading provider of technology and business solutions for 
      the global mobile telecommunications industry, announced today a 
      multi-year agreement to provide data clearing services to SmarTone-Vodafone 
      of Hong Kong.
    
    
      SmarTone-Vodafone will use Syniverse’s ACCESS 
      S&E® 
      GSM Clearinghouse Services as its single point of contact for the 
      exchange of roamer billing records with mobile operators. ACCESS S&E 
      also provides access to more than 100 types of business and financial 
      reports that will allow SmarTone-Vodafone to analyze and manage its 
      roaming business more efficiently.
    
    
      Stephen Chau, Chief Technology Officer, SmarTone-Vodafone, said one 
      reason his company selected ACCESS S&E is Syniverse’s 
      long-time expertise in the data clearing arena.
    
    
      “Syniverse’s 
      solution is an industry-proven product used globally,” 
      he said. “We made the decision to move our 
      data clearing to Syniverse’s platform to 
      ensure we utilize a best-in-breed solution that is always compliant with 
      industry standards, allows us to have seamless exchange of roaming 
      billing records with our roaming partners and, most importantly, allows 
      us to provide the best possible service to our subscribers.”
    
    
      The agreement with SmarTone-Vodafone continues the expansion of Syniverse’s 
      GSM data clearing services presence in Asia. Last fall, True Move of 
      Thailand became a new GSM clearing customer for Syniverse in the Asia 
      Pacific region when it switched its data clearing business to ACCESS S&E.
    
    
      Raymond Cheung, Executive Vice President and CEO-Asia Pacific, 
      Syniverse, said he greatly appreciates the confidence of 
      SmarTone-Vodafone in selecting Syniverse for its clearing solutions.
    
    
      “We currently provide GSM and CDMA data 
      clearing services to major mobile operators throughout the Asia Pacific 
      region that together have more than 200 million subscribers, including 
      Reliance Communications Ltd. of India. These Syniverse contracts clearly 
      demonstrate the continuing traction of our global growth initiatives in 
      the world’s most advanced and fastest growing 
      mobile market,” he said.
