What is NI USSD?

Network Initiated Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (NI USSD) is an instant message sent from a network to a mobile device. It offers a simple solution with access to all four South African mobile networks with Cellfind NI USSD (MT USSD or Push USSD). USSD integration can be achieved in several ways by companies, from integrating it directly into their processes to migrating to NI USSD.

START THE COMMUNICATION

Through this, customers can improve their customer engagement cycle by getting in touch with their target audience. Previously, notifications were one-way, but now end-users can respond with confirmations or other responses.

COST-EFFECTIVE PLATFORM

The best part is how cost-effective the NI USSD platform is. For you to remain relevant to your clients, this is your way into their world – how they think and operate, what their preferences are, and why.

PUSH, NUDGE, NOTIFY

With the full cooperation of those to whom you initiate communication, you have all the say. Yes, it’s invitational in nature, but you can also give helpful information, reminders, and ‘push’ incentives to your valued customers. These include customer surveys and polls, competition entries, balance enquiries, or account application responses.
