Case Study: Pinger launches voice-enabled TextFree and scales fast with Bandwidth

Pinger powers 2.5 million voice calls in 10 days with Bandwidth

Pinger, a communications app company, needed to add voice services and provide individual phone numbers to users of its TextFree SMS application. As a software company new to VoIP, its challenge was finding a flexible and agile network partner like Bandwidth that would collaborate with them despite their lack of existing voice minute volumes.

Bandwidth worked closely with Pinger to rapidly build and launch the innovative TextFree with voice platform. The solution was a major success, scaling quickly with 2.5 million voice calls made in the first ten days. The app peaked at #2 in Apple’s App Store, surpassing major apps in downloads, and projected $200M in revenues for 2012.
