PayWizard Enterprise is enabling pay-TV platforms, MSOs and VOD service providers to truly monetize the TV everywhere landscape

London, 12 August 2014- At IBC 2014, PayWizard, the specialists in next generation subscriber management for multiscreen pay-TV, will be showing how subscriber management systems (SMS) are helping pay-TV platforms, MSOs and VOD service providers develop advanced TV everywhere strategies. Visitors to the PayWizard stand (#14.G14) will be able to see first-hand how the company supports multiscreen subscriber management, platform interoperability as well as a unique array of payment services to enable operators to truly monetize the TV everywhere experience.

The explosion of video-enabled, internet connected devices means the global pay-TV market is undergoing significant evolution. With the rise of new platforms, devices and distribution models, it is becoming a strategic imperative for operators to embrace a TV everywhere vision. But behind the scenes many are evaluating how to align subscriber provisioning, billing and payment whilst creating compelling experiences for an increasingly diverse audience.

“Today it is more important than ever to deliver exciting and compelling TV experiences to consumers – a TV service that fails to deliver as advertised risks angry subscribers clicking on the dreaded unsubscribe or cancel subscription button,” says Jamie Mackinlay, Commercial Director, PayWizard. “To monetize the new TV landscape, operators need to deliver content across devices, allowing consumers to access and pay for the content they want, anytime and anywhere, as well as support global payments, and ensure their technology is future-proofed to make sure they can continue to deliver their services when new devices and platforms arise. But delivering this is no easy feat, which is why next-generation SMS are playing an integral role in today’s digital landscape”.
