Indus OS and Freecharge aims to revolutionise the pre-paid recharge industry

Indus OS, the indigenous Made for India OS and FreeCharge have unveiled Recharge 2.0, a product integrated within the smartphone dialer interface today. Recharge 2.0 on the Indus Dialer will allow for a simplified recharge experience for Indian smartphone users powered through FreeCharge.

As per various industry estimates, it is well acknowledged that 95 per cent of India’s mobile subscriber base comprises pre-paid connections. While a majority of prepaid users prefer data plans that have a fixed monthly charge for limited amount of data usage, an oft neglected fact is that they do not have a clear idea of how their money is getting spent.

Recharge 2.0 aims to bridge this gap and introduce features that provide comprehensive analysis on usage patterns alongside real-time updates to offer more control in the hands of pre-paid users. Powered by an OS-level integration pioneered by Indus OS, Recharge 2.0 encourages smart usage of prepaid balance along with mobile recharge experience powered by FreeCharge.

The OS-integrated payment innovation on Indus Dialer is accessible in the most natural interface, the phone dialer. The new Indus Dialer allows users one-touch access on the phone dialer to recharge through FreeCharge. It also allows instant information of current balance on the main dialer screen. The user can also analyse historical balance and compare daily, weekly and monthly balance usage across Talktime, Data and SMS. The user can set thresholds to receive low balance alerts. Additionally, expense of every call can be tracked within the call log and money spent on each contact can also be analysed.
