functionality, Mobitel is able to dynamically change the subscriber's
bandwidth, based on his quota and financial status.
"We will be experiencing fast growth over the next few years as we

requirements as it can both grow with us and enable us to launch those new

customized billing and customer care solution, with no changes to procedures
and interfaces.

quickly and easily add extra components, makes FTS express the perfect
solution for carriers such as Mobitel Nigeria," said Amos Sivan, CEO, FTS.
"Africa is a hotbed of service innovation and the choice of billing system
will either support or restrict that. FTS express has been created to
support and enable this innovation."
