Billing system is integrated for calls routed through an Asterisk server. Calls through an Asterisk server pass through three states:
Authentication – Asterisk server searches the users PIN in local DB and if it is located it will allow the call to go through. If the PIN is not found in the local Asterisk DB, then system will reject the call.
Authorization – When user enters destination number Asterisk server sends request to billing system where PIN number can identify account of the user and check cash balance for his account. Then billing system determines credit time for this account and calculates call duration based on destination country rate compared to credit in the account.
Accounting – When a call is completed billing system does accounting. It calculates call cost and reduces money from the account.
In our victoriacard system a user can call several destinations simultaneously within one session and one account.
Our system has additional features such as access numbers with the following attributes:
- Authentication, Authorization and Accounting. System supports three radius methods.
- Pinless authentication – System can authenticate a user by the number he calls in from.
- Web based user interface. Users can access their personalized administration center from anywhere, 24/7.
- Debit calling card billing model with PIN number authentication.
- All prepaid phone cards have a ten-digit serial number and a twelve-digit PIN (which should be covered by a scratch area). The PINs provide account number identification to the server as well as an authentication number which is unique to that account. This prevents misuse of the account if the account number is known. The algorithm used to generate the PIN is a highly-specialized authentication scheme unique to Dreamtime and is practically unbreakable.
- Flexible destinations. System can register unlimited destination points with description and call prefix of each point.
- Destination points can be arranged into groups for more flexible management.
- Flexible interface for managing access devices. Devices can be arranged within groups and each access point can be assigned unique pricing. This gives great flexibility in assigning pricing based on where the users call in from.
