ATLANTA, Aug. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Splitit (ASX: SPT) (OTCQX: SPTTY) announced Telispire, a wholly owned subsidiary of the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative (NRTC), has selected to integrate Splitit's Installments-as-a-Service into its PHOENIX state-of-the-art back office and billing system allowing Telispire's mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) customers to offer installment payments to its subscribers easily.
As one of the country's largest technology providers and aggregators for MVNOs, Telispire offers a turn-key mobile telecom service for local and regional operators, utilities, co-ops and cable companies.

"Our number one goal is our resellers' success. Splitit's white-label installments gives us a valuable tool to offer our resellers that puts them on a more equal footing with larger competitors without having to manage the technical integration," said Telispire COO Craig Andrew. "The growth of 5G has many looking to upgrade devices, giving MVNOs a simple option to offer subscribers a great way to pay over time without the complexity of traditional financing options."
"We are excited to partner with a leading mobile telecommunications and device market platform. The large ticket size perfectly matches Splitit's flexible installment platform. Consumers can easily spread the cost of their devices or services over time without additional interest or hidden fees," said Splitit CEO Nandan Sheth. "Telispire is truly empowering innovative mobile retailers with a turn-key platform that will have embedded installment services via Splitit. Their clients will have zero implementation burden, and Splitit benefits from distribution to many fast-growing retailers through a single connection to PHOENIX."
