The Top-up Recharge initiative defines the mechanism and procedure for on-line updation of the credit information for service subscribers without using printed recharge currency. Recharge of cash cards of cellular services can be quite a hectic process. But with the VPOP range of products from AEMIT, this operation can be automated with the aid of instant verification & one-stop recharge.
 

The main components of this application are:

• The Recharge Terminal: This terminal deals with payments via smart/swipe cards and payment verification & recharge operations are performed after consultation with the central server.

• Central Web Server: This web-based server interacts with the remote console & updates the database accordingly.

The subscriber visits one of the various “Recharge Booths” in order to pay and update the service credit information. The transaction is assumed to be a “Cash Transaction”. Each Recharge booth is allocated a unique Identification Code with the Service Provider.

Once the payment is made, the recharge booth operator dials the re-charge call center and provides Subscriber’s information. Once the Pin Number is specified and validated, the Call Center recharges the number & sends an acknowledgement.

The Recharge Booth may also be equipped with a Receipt Printer for documenting the entire transaction (possibly in duplicate) for the subscriber and the Recharge Booth Operator.
