Short Code Dialling for In-bound Roamers
Allows in-bound roamers to use their home short code (e.g. voice mail number).

Selective Home Routing
Selectively routes calls from out-bound roamers in CAMEL supporting networks. Used both for least cost routing and to enable outbound roamers to use their home short codes (e.g. voice mail).

Dialled Digit Correction
If, for a subscriber roaming in another network, an attempted outgoing call fails, the service tries to automatically correct the number dialled. For example, if the subscriber omitted the international code to route a call to their home country (a common mistake made by holiday makers), retry with the appropriate code.

Aepona can offer an ever expanding range of service applications, designed for emerging markets or to replace or enhance existing, legacy IN services, allowing an operator to retire end of life equipment. Examples of such services include:

VPN
Range of VPN services - black/white lists, call screening, short code translation, reduced on-net tarifs, etc.

Family & Friends & In Group Tariffs
Reduced tariff for calls to a predefined set of numbers.

Personal Number
A 'find me' hunt group service. A personal number maps to a set of numbers which are called in turn until one answers (or none succeed).

Tariffing
Tariff determination from the dialled (premium rate) number.

Number Translation and Routing
General number translation and routing services.

Outgoing call barring services
Barring outgoing calls to specific numbers (black-list) or if calling number has been withheld.

Anonymous Call Barring
Barring incoming calls if calling number has been withheld.

Office Zone
Enhanced VPN with additional reduced tariff if calling from within specific (office) zone(s).

Home Zone
Consumer service offering specific (reduced) tariff for calling within specific zone(s), e.g. home cell.

Location Dependent Routing
General routing based on caller's physical location (cell).

SMS notification send to caller (A party) whenever a previously called, but unsuccessful, number becomes available.

Includes the Missed Call Notification (MCN) services, whereby an SMS notifications for missed calls are sent to the called party.

Both services can be enhanced, if permitted by the user, to include discreet advertisments in the notification messages. These 'opt-in' advertisments then fund the service and provide an additional revenue stream for the operator.
