Acision, the world's leading messaging company, announces the launch of Acision Charging Engine, a new visionary platform at the heart of its unified charging architecture. For the first time, operators will be able to unify the monetization of their services on one platform, bringing together prepaid, postpaid and bundle management, enabling the optimization of customer experience across the network.

Enabling operators to easily charge for any service including SMS, MMS, IM, voice and data, Acision Charging Engine is a high performance, intelligent platform that forms the nucleus of Acision's charging solutions - prepaid, convergent charging and bundle manager. Together these solutions offer a common architecture for charging, in real-time, across any network.

"We have 14 years experience of working with tier one operators to deliver innovative charging solutions. These ensure that the revenue from new services is effective and easily captured. Improving time to market of new services is key, as is cost effectively scaling a solution whilst helping to lower OPEX costs and CAPEX investment."
