Painless Prepaid Card Distribution
  • Save money
  • Save your distributors' money
  • Eliminate prepaid fraud
  • Resolve inventory, distribution and management headaches: never out of stock

  DSM consulting, a leading consultant in the area of telecommunications billing and management systems,
offers a prepaid management system that is so right, so timely, it's surprising you didn't think of it yourself.
The VPC system replaces the costly printing and distribution of prepaid scratch cards with a network of mini- terminals that print the cards at the point of sale.

What is VPC?

  VPC is a secure, network-based virtual prepaid distribution system, which eliminates the costs and risks of paper-based scratch cards. VPC's back-office functions automate the management of scratch card distribution, and let the carrier and the distributor manage the delivery and the sales processes, to maximize prepaid revenues.   What's more, by offering your distributors a system for cutting costs and increasing efficiency and revenue, you ensure their loyalty and their preference for your services.

How does VPC work?

VPC replaces the costly printing and distribution of scratch cards with a network of point of sale terminals, and a prepaid number server.
  When a customer purchases a



scratch card, the system prints the prepaid PIN at the local terminal. VPC offers a safe and manageable process for PIN distribution, saving costs to both the operator and the distributor, and expanding the potential for managing and enhancing the prepaid card process.

Rapid ROI

  By saving on printing and distribution costs, your return on investment is a matter of months

Secure

  VPC is more secure than the bank vaults and armored cars you use today to distribute scratch cards.
All communications across the VPC network are encrypted using an advanced encryption algorithm.
The prepaid card data on the server is also encrypted, so this valuable data is doubly protected from end to end.
The sales person is required to present identification - with a PIN code or swipe card - to prevent unauthorized use.
Immediate replenishment by VPC eliminates opportunities for fraud.

Flexible

  VPC can transmit PIN card information across any network medium, including wireless, switched network, Internet, or leased line. VPC can interconnect to existing terminal equipment at the point of sale, including credit card readers, cash registers and sales terminals, or local computers.
If the point of sale installs a dedicated terminal, it can later share that terminal with other sales applications.

Configurable

  VPC supports the sale of numerous types of cards, with different terms and prices. It can be configured to support cards of multiple operators. VPC can even be configured to sell other virtual products, such as movie tickets and so on.

Integrated

  VPC integrates seamlessly with the operator’s and the distributors’ accounts receivable and general ledger systems, with the operator’s prepaid system and billing system, and with direct debit and credit card clearing houses.   VPC is fully integrated with the other products of the DSM prepaid suite such as VAM (Virtual Account Management), for Internet retail & prepaid surfing solutions (prepaid & post-paid) as well as the PSCA (Prepaid Services Complementary Applications).

Manageable

  VPC turns the prepaid distribution and sales process from a logistics headache to a controlled process that increases sales potential. Operators and distributors track and audit distribution and sales performance in real time. Auditors have full traceability and accountability of points of sale.
  VPC supports dealer compensation and bonus programs. Dealer and sales compensation is calculated automatically. VPC also supports credit caps and other controls for sales agents.
When a point of sale exceeds its credit cap, it is automatically blocked from further sales.
  A variety of management and sales reports opens new potentials for promotions and sales analysis.

Scalable and robust

  VPC architecture allows unlimited growth. So the system can serve small telcos or distributors, or tier one operators. The system ensures uninterrupted service. Operators can isolate and eliminate local points of failure with no down time or system interruption.
