GlobalTouch Telecom Introduces Hosted Prepaid VoIP Solution at Intele-Card Expo
Award-Winning Service Provider Will Showcase its Comprehensive Portfolio of ASP VoIP Products and Services At Booth 412


MIAMI, FL (April 24, 2007) – Reinforcing its position as a leader in the IP Communications marketplace, GlobalTouch Telecom, Inc., the award-winning service provider of innovative, vertically-integrated hosted Voice-over-IP (VoIP) platforms, today introduced its Prepaid VoIP Solution at Intele-Card EXPO 2007, in Miami, FL. GlobalTouch will showcase it’s full suite of hosted VoIP products and services at booth 412.

Based on its widely recognized ASP VoIP platform, GlobalTouch’s hosted Prepaid VoIP Solution delivers a complete turnkey service to its MSO, carrier, PTT, reseller, ISP and other customers, comprised of a one-stop, private-labeled package with built-in scalability. Of particular note, is that unlike other prepaid offerings, consumers using GlobalTouch Prepaid VoIP will not have to dial a 10-digit toll free number and then enter a 16 digit PIN. They simply use their Internet-enabled phone, or free softphone that comes with their service, to dial a number anywhere in the world.

“Prepaid VoIP represents one of the most promising opportunities for growth in today’s burgeoning VoIP market, as it enables service providers access to a wide range of potential new customers,” said Gregory O. Welch, CEO, GlobalTouch Telecom. “This latest offering, coupled with our strong presence in the hosted VoIP space – what many analysts believe to be the hottest and most stable VoIP sector – has GlobalTouch poised for a very strong 2007.”

A specific advantage that prepaid VoIP enjoys over traditional prepaid calling cards is a higher level of user “stickiness;” as consumers use their computer to activate their respective accounts, review their calls and charges, and retrieve their voicemail, they are far less likely to switch to a competing product. In addition, individual resellers have the flexibility to create new, on-going revenue streams by allowing consumers to use a credit card and/or vouchers to recharge their balances as needed.

Specific features and functionality inherent in GlobalTouch Prepaid VoIP Solution include:

• Speedy implementation: launch a private-labeled prepaid VoIP business in 60 days or less;
• Global connectivity: users can make calls to anywhere from anywhere in the world (users can both make and receive calls);
• Resellers can offer free Internet phone calls (IP-to-IP calling) on each of their respective service plans;
• Free softphone for every user;
• Call forwarding, 3-way calling, caller ID, call waiting and instant voicemail to email;
• Built-in, real-time billing engine with flexible rating;
• Web-based customer care, self-provisioning and self-administration; and
• Complete redundancy and high scalability.

GlobalTouch Telecom’s award winning ASP VoIP Solution provides organizations the means with which to enter and operate in any size VoIP market, scalable from a few thousand residential or enterprise seats to millions of customers around the world. It enables carriers, resellers, PTTs, MSOs and ISPs to launch a private-labeled VoIP business in less than 60 days.
