Case Study: G-Mobile becomes a cross-border MVNE with PortaOne PortaBilling and PortaSwitch

G-Mobile launches cross-border MVNE in 14 months with PortaOne

The customer, G-Mobile, sought to enter the competitive international travel SIM card market as an MVNO. Their challenge was building a highly flexible and cost-effective back-end infrastructure that could integrate with their own in-house developed mobile core components. They required a billing system with an open architecture to facilitate this unique integration, leading them to the vendor PortaOne and its PortaBilling BSS/OSS platform.

PortaOne's solution provided G-Mobile with the open architecture and API access needed for deep integration and platform enhancement. Using PortaBilling and PortaSIP, G-Mobile launched its HelloSIM service and, within 14 months, expanded to become a cross-border MVNE, hosting multiple MVNOs on the same physical platform. This scalable approach from PortaOne minimized operating costs, saved development time, and allowed G-Mobile to quickly onboard new MVNOs with minimal additional integration work.
