RouteTrader, RTX, was a SaaS platform that larger PTTs used to setup wholesale prepaid voice customers on. It handled money in customer accounts and carriers their own accounts. The carriers would brand the portal, contract with the customer, and the customer would setup SIP trunking to that RTX realm of servers for that carrier. Essentially a hosted SaaS switch trading platform. They also supported SMS SMPP binds if the carrier wanted to implement it.
I believe RTX made their money off of yearly fees to the carriers plus a per minute cut of the traffic. It just made it easy for carriers to offer a wholesale prepaid product for smaller customers that didn't have the business case for the typical postpaid platform. ~Jared On Wed, Nov 20, 2024 at 3:18 PM Jawaid Bazyar <[email protected]> wrote: > What was RTX ?
