Convergent Charging solutions
Take advantage of evolving monetization opportunities with Nokia Convergent Charging solutions
In a rapidly evolving digital landscape, Telecommunication Providers face an uncertain future. Where services emerge overnight, ecosystems shift rapidly, and revenue models evolve faster than traditional charging systems can respond. In this new era, one thing is clear: convergent charging systems (CCS) must be versatile, adaptable, and ready for anything.
Nokia Converged Charging (NCC) provides the flexibility, agility, and intelligence needed to thrive amidst this change, ensuring you can monetize any service, anytime, anywhere.
Navigating tomorrow's unknowns with versatile charging
The future of digital services and business models for Telecommunication Providers is dynamic and unpredictable. To adapt quickly to new market demands and emerging technologies, a charging system must offer unparalleled flexibility.
Agility for the unknown
NCC is engineered to support an expansive range of services, from traditional connectivity to advanced 5G use cases, IoT, and beyond, ensuring you can monetize new opportunities as they arise. This allows Telecommunication Providers to charge for anything, and to easily define rating and charging rules for any type of usage, metric, or event, from traditional voice/data to API consumption, network slices, and IoT device connectivity.
Low-code empowerment
We empower Telecommunication Provider commercial teams to rapidly design, test, and deploy new offers and business logic without extensive coding. Our intuitive low-code charging configurator significantly reduces time-to-market, from months to minutes, allowing you to innovate faster and respond to market shifts with unprecedented speed. Through our intuitive, visual interface with pre-configured components, Telecommunication Providers drastically reduce the need for costly and time-consuming custom development.
Autonomous networks and intelligent charging
Operational efficiency and simplicity are paramount for Telecommunication Providers looking to optimize costs, enhance customer experience, and achieve autonomous networks. Manual processes cannot keep pace with dynamic 5G slicing, network-as-a-service models, and event-heavy IoT environments, so they must operate with maximum efficiency, accelerating processes and minimizing human intervention in repetitive, high-volume tasks. NCC leverages advanced technologies to streamline operations and accelerate value creation, automating complex charging processes, from rating and billing to policy enforcement, minimizing manual intervention, reducing operational expenditures, and accelerating the journey to autonomous networks.
Driven by innovation: Edge charging and Generative AI
Charging is no longer just about rating usage, it’s now the engine of digital services, monetization, and ecosystem growth. Nokia is at the forefront of charging innovation, continuously developing capabilities that redefine how telecommunication providers monetize services.
Flexible, Cloud-Native Architecture
Built on microservices and leveraging the Service-Based Architecture (SBA) of the 5G Core, our CCS supports deployment across public, private, and hybrid cloud environments, as well as business models from CAPEX to SaaS, aligned with Nokia’s Core SaaS suite, ensuring scalability and reliability as your business grows.
Edge Charging
By bringing charging intelligence closer to the network edge, we enable efficient monetization for critical 5G and IoT applications. This distributed architecture supports new business models requiring real-time, localized charging decisions, enhancing performance and enabling new revenue streams for enterprise and industrial use cases.
Advanced GenAI Applications
GenAI is being integrated to unlock new possibilities including:
- Optimized offer creation and test automation: GenAI assists in the creation of new tariff and bundle ideas, and logic flows through conversational prompts, transforming business intent into charging configurations and quality-assured offers.
- Simplified Management: AI-powered tools simplify system configuration, troubleshooting, and maintenance, making charging operations faster and simpler for your teams.
