Premium SMS (PR SMS) is a simple and effective marketing as well as payment tool, which allows bi-directional SMS communication by means of the ‘premium phone number’. This number is uniform for customers of all mobile operators in the Czech Republic. So now you can use the mobile phone as a safe tool for paying for travel insurance, regulatory fees in healthcare facilities, to purchase tickets for cinemas, theatres or sports facilities, access to websites, booking sightseeing tours, etc. Using SMS services you can pay for both one-time and recurring events.
The customer can be charged by sending an SMS (MO SMS = Mobile Originated SMS) or by receiving a reply SMS on their mobile phone (MT SMS = Mobile Terminated SMS). Each of these models is used for a different type of service. The model for charging for a reply SMS (MT SMS) is used for example in the case of subscriptions, where, after the initial consent, it is possible to charge the customer repeatedly.
