CPA Goods and Services

Modified on Fri, 09 Dec 2022 10:47 by Cecilie — Categorized as: CPA

The PSWinCom Gateway supports billing of Goods and Services (CPA GAS) using mobile phones in Norway. As opposed to traditional CPA/Premium SMS which can only be used to bill mobile content, CPA GAS can only be used to bill goods and services.

Tariff values up to NOK 500,- can be used.

Each transaction must contain a special ServiceCode. The ServiceCode specifies what kind of goods or services the transaction is related to.

The Gateway will use the NRDB (National Reference Database) to resolve which operator the receiver belongs to. To use CPA Goods and Services with the PSWinCom Gateway you must sign up for a separate CPA GAS agreement.

XML Elements

Two extra elements are required on the MSG element to submit a CPA or GAS message/transaction:

Element Req Description
TARIFF Y Specifies the amount to charge the end-user in units of cents/”ører”. For example, to charge the end-user NOK 5,- you specify “500” as the TARIFF value. Only valid values must be used.
SERVICECODE N Specifies the type of Goods or Service that the transaction is related to.
AGELIMIT N You may specify an age limit when sending Premium SMS messages. If you set this property to a value larger than 0 (zero), then the value will be matched against the age of the subscriber. The subscriber must then be at least the given age in order to receive the message. The operators usually accept 16 and 18. The Gateway will pick the most appropriate age limit it the operator cannot accept the given age limit.

Examples:
AgeLimit is given as 17. The operator only accepts 0, 16 or 18. Gateway sends 16 to operator.
AgeLimit is given as 22. The operator only accepts 0, 16 or 18. Gateway sends 18 to operator.

It is recommended that you only use 16 or 18.
CPATAG N Premium SMS messages may have an additional description associated with itself. This value will be shown on the subscribers phone bill to help identify the service purchased. Please note that not all operators support this property, and it may be restrictions to how it is formatted. Pelase consult PSWinCom technical support if you intend to use this feature. Others should set it to null.
