Eligible customers can activate the offer through the Airtel TV app, entitling them to enjoy the benefits of a free one-year Amazon Prime membership.\n \nThe Bango Platform ensures that the moment the customer accepts the service it becomes active and they receive uninterrupted access for as long as they continue to subscribe. This launch represents a new application of the Bango Platform to enable reselling at scale. \n \n\"Bango partners have identified another way to meet customer needs for instant, uninterrupted access to the best content and services. Bundles and resale are a natural business model extension for merchants wanting to increase customer reach\", commented Ray Anderson, CEO, Bango. \"This launch highlights the versatility of the Bango Platform and strength of relationships that have seen Bango take partners into new territories, for new types of goods and services, through one, standard platform.\"\n \nThis launch follows the successful launch of Direct Carrier Billing (DCB) for Amazon retail customers in Japan (June 2017), which then expanded to customers of Amazon Prime and Prime Student membership programmes (November 2017).\n \n \nFor further information please contact:\n \n\n\n\n\nBango plc\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRay Anderson, CEO\n\n\n+44 3330 770 247\n\n\n\n\nRachel Elias-Jones, CFO\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAnil Malhotra, CMO\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCenkos Securities plc\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBeth McKiernan / Neil McDonald\n\n\n +44 131 220 6939\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n FTI Consulting\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMatt Dixon / Rob Mindell\n\n\n+44 203 727 1000\n\n\n\n\n \...
