Detroit,
Michigan, March 4,
2002 - Televoke,
a leading telematics software company,
announced today at the Digital Car Conference,
that it has selected WirelessCar, a
leading provider of telematics infrastructure
services, to deliver transaction-based
billing systems so Televoke business
partners can better address the billing
needs of enterprise and fleet customers.
The
WirelessCar billing system, t-Bill,
already in use by a major European car
company and multiple Telematics Service
Providers, will provide a new value-added
service that will allow Televoke and
its business partners to provide more
detailed accounting and transaction-based
usage models required in many enterprise
and high-end consumer services.
"Flexibility
in billing is critical for Televoke
and its partners to stay ahead in a
competitive marketplace," said Bob Kimball,
CEO of Televoke. "WirelessCar provides
the best of both worlds to help Televoke
maintain its competitive edge -- a flexible,
sophisticated billing system, as well
as comprehensive knowledge and experience
in the telematics industry."
Through
more detailed subscriber information,
the WirelessCar system will help Televoke
and its partners to easily offer new and
differentiated service offerings. The
system will also help optimize network
performance and maximize profitability
through improved revenue assurance.
"We are delighted to be working
with Televoke, a leader in telematics
services particularly in the US telematics
aftermarket," said Gary Hallgren,
COO of WirelessCar. "We look forward
to working with them as they move into
other applications and international
markets."
