Semua Tentang Indosat

Creatary gives you exclusive access to Indosat’s subscriber location and messaging APIs. These APIs let you do things like retrieve subscriber location from the network (no GPS required!) and allow you to interact with users via SMS, easily delivering and charging for your content. These APIs are direct from Indosat's network and independent of whatever handset OS your users have. From the simplest phones to the latest smartphones, you only need to call the Creatary APIs for this rich subscriber interaction.

But most importantly, let's talk about money. Your users now do not need any credit card to pay you! You can get paid for your service directly from Indosat subscriber's mobile balance by using Premium SMS that you can select at various price points from the table below! Further by April 2012, we will even be exposing the charging API enabling you to charge what you want and when you want! Of course, it'll need subscriber authorization. You will also see that the revenue share being offered here is really healthy. What's more, build a cool service using these APIs, and Indosat will be open to help market your applications.

Take a look at the Premium SMS tariffs available and the super healthy revenue shares that we're offering right across the board!

You do need to get your users opt-in to your service. This can be done automatically if they send a Premium SMS to the Indosat 515 shortcode with the  keyword that matches your application.  We use OAUTH for handling user identity, just like other web services. Watch this tutorial to get an idea:

Urbanesia, Indonesia's leading local review site that provides directories of Hotels, Restaurants, Shops and Businesses lists our 250.000 business listings around Indonesia. Urbanesia is available on desktop and mobile web browser to search for business information around a location.

But what about people who are on the move and want to find the nearest well-rated hotel to rest-up for the night or the nearest popular nasi padang place for a quick snack without going through the hassle of opening up a web page or without a data plan? Using Creatary, Urbanesia has built quick, slick services that allow people to look up listings by SMS, with the location coming from the Creatary API no matter what cell phone is being used! This way there's no need to have an app downloaded, no GPS required and its super quick. Additionally Urbanesia have chosen a Rp 1.000 tariff for this service of which they receive 60% - not bad for a week's worth of development effort!
