- Vizada has launched their Universal Card prepaid service for mobile satellite communications. This service is the first of its kind on the market to allow users to make private calls, send SMS and email from a single card over Inmarsat and Iridium mobile satellite terminals. The Universal Card is designed to simplify administration for customers managing large fleets of terminals such as maritime communications officers and government agency representatives. Large fleets often comprise multi-satellite operator terminals to cater for users’ varied communications requirements—the Universal Card can be used with Iridium devices as well as Inmarsat terminals. Over Iridium terminals, users benefit from the same off-peak rate 24/7, reducing communications costs as compared to existing solutions on the market, as well as providing a simple, transparent service for both end users and fleet managers. By combining version 7.0 of its SkyFile Mail messaging solution with the Universal Card, Vizada offers customers prepaid email, SMS and voice calls as one service. Currently, more than 10,500 SkyFile Mail accounts are activated, enabling these users to also benefit from the Universal Card prepaid service. The Universal Card prepaid service is a key component of the Vizada Solutions portfolio, enabling Vizada to enhance standard connectivity services according to customers’ specific requirements.
