ATLAS Interactive Extends Cooperation with SPORT1

It was only recently, in September of this year, that ATLAS Interactive announced the addition of SPORT1 to its client roster. The kanzalooTM payment method has since been added as a transaction channel for “SPORT1-Bundesliga Manager” and “SPORT1-Handball Manager”. The payment specialist today reports that SPORT1 will now also transact mobile payments for premium live stream offerings with the ATLAS Interactive system.

Lars Ketelsen, ATLAS Interactive CMO, on the new scope of the relationship with SPORT1: “We are very happy that SPORT1 will now also use kanzaloo to handle transactions for paid streaming content. The quality of our products and customer service was convincing.”

In September 2011, the universal payment system, kanzalooTM, was employed on the SPORT1 online portal for the first time. kanzalooTM unites the major mobile invoicing methods, premium SMS, web billing und voice billing, in a single product.

Users can choose from a whole range of live stream offerings provided on SPORT1.de. Beginning in December, the existing payment methods for premium content will be complemented by an additional option, web billing: Customers enter their mobile telephone number on the website to receive a PIN code via SMS, which is subsequently used to register on the website. Charges will then appear on the mobile telephone bill or be deducted from the prepaid balance.
