TAP Out
Usage of inbound roamers is validated, rated against the agreement and sent to the clearing house.
BSS Suite
Roaming Management System
Run roaming as a controlled, auditable revenue stream.
The Bonyan Roaming Management System brings wholesale roaming in-house: partners and agreements, TAP files in and out, returned records, near-real-time data for fraud control, discount agreements and settlement with every partner.
It follows the GSMA documents that govern roaming and connects to your mediation, billing and finance, so every amount can be traced to the record and the agreement behind it.

Settlement
What You Owe, What You Are Owed
Usage of your network by inbound roamers and of partners' networks by your own subscribers is netted per partner, with discount agreements applied.
| TAP out · our network used by their roamers | 64% | + 96,000 |
|---|---|---|
| TAP in · their network used by our roamers | 36% | − 54,000 |
| Discount agreement true-up | − 4,600 |
Illustrative figures. Every amount traces back to the records and the agreement that produced it.
