Simplexity Becomes Authorized Reseller of Clearwire 4G Mobile Broadband Service

Clearwire Corporation and Simplexity MVNO Services entered into a strategic wholesale relationship which entails Simplexity to be an authorized reseller of the former’s 4G mobile broadband service and act as Clearwire’s preferred MVNE and preferred provider for Third-party Branded Services.

In a release Terry Hsu, president of Simplexity MVNO Services said, “We are very excited about our agreement with Clearwire. Their proven 4G track record, deep spectrum portfolio and broad portfolio of existing and potential MVNO partners create a tremendous opportunity to expand our offerings to a wide range of current and potential 4G wholesale customers.”

A provider of 4G wireless broadband services in the United States, Clearwire said that the commercial services will be made available from the latter half of 2012.

As a fully integrated Mobile Virtual Network Enabler or MVNE, Simplexity will offer MVNO support services that will enable clients to deliver private branded and customized wireless plans to customers. This brings down costs and the time to market launch to cater to the demands of more than 130 million potential customers covered by the Clearwire 4G networks, revealed officials.

Simplexity’s customizable MVNO platform will provide its partners with all the benefits that are characterized by wireless offers and rate plans without the need to function as an MVNO.

The agreement allows Simplexity to offer comprehensive services to all existing Clearwire MVNOs, enabling rapid deployment and management of all wireless programs. Clearwire MVNO also allows customers to pick either Simplexity’s end-to-end turnkey solution or a customized solution.

Simplexity’s solutions, in either case, will help customers with the scalability and cost savings required for MVNOs. Other services offered by Simplexity are sales and order acquisition, activation and provisioning, distribution and logistics, billing and subscriber lifecycle management, customer care and management analytics.

Simplexity caters to the needs of national retailers, online retailers, telecommunications providers, OEMs, direct marketing organizations and other affinity groups.

Don Stroberg, president of strategic partnerships and wholesale at Clearwire stated, “Simplexity's ability to offer MVNE services adds a new level of choice and flexibility that will make it even easier for potential wholesale partners seeking a simple back office solution to support their 4G product offerings.”

In December 2011, Clearwire Corporation, announced the signing of a four-year hosted software licensing agreement with Alianza, a provider of cloud-based VoIP solutions; in order to manage Clearwire’s voice over 4G products and services.
