Boston, MA. December 22, 2016 — OnePIN, Inc., the world’s leading provider of social call connectivity and social address book solutions, today announced that it has launched its CallerXchange and MsgXpress services with Orange Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”).
The mobile market in the DRC is undergoing significant growth and is currently the largest mobile market in Central and West Africa after Nigeria with more than 40 million subscribers. With a population of more than 80 million people and a relatively low mobile penetration rate of 50% of the population, the country offers considerable growth potential for Orange. Orange has launched OnePIN’s CallerXchange and MsgXpress services to its subscriber base of 12 million mobile phone customers in the country.
CallerXchange, OnePIN’s flagship service, is a person-to-person business card exchange service that connects people and enhances social networks. Subscribers can easily share and update their contact information after phone calls. The phonebook is one of the most universally used applications on the phone, and quietly continues to be a strategic play for mobile network operators. MsgXpress is a missed call service that allows subscribers to quickly and easily send personalized messages with a single click immediately after missed calls. Both services generate premium value added service revenue for mobile network operators, in addition to helping reduce subscriber churn.
