Innovative and compelling services to Ghana mobile subscribers
This service will encompass several content categories including religious, motivational and lifestyle content, delivered to the market on Kirusa’s platform, an open platform supporting industry standard VoiceXML, subscription management, and integration into all the key elements in the carrier network. The Kirusa platform thus provides a framework for third party application developers and content providers to quickly offer and monetize innovative voice and content services to mobile subscribers.
Initial launch
Initial launch will be through leading mobile carriers in Ghana, leveraging the Kirusa platform deployed at these mobile carriers. With Kirusa’s deployment across Africa and with geographical reach of txtAfrica, parent company of txtGhana, these services will expand to other African markets.
