If you believe an additional payment method would help you to reach a new user base, you can request Cleeng to integrate it, highlighting expected transaction volumes and market penetration. We recommend choosing payment methods that have strong usage in subscription-based services, and a solid presence in the regions you are targeting and where you expect to have significant volume.

Other Payment Channels incl. Carrier Billing or Telco Integrations
Cleeng's Multi-Channel Billing (MCB) enables platforms to support multiple payment channels beyond traditional web and in-app methods, all managed through a single integration and unified subscriber lifecycle.
Multi-Channel Billing is designed for markets where payment fragmentation is high, such as the Middle East, where a service may need to work with local mobile carriers to offer direct carrier billing. By consolidating these carrier connections into one scalable layer, Multi-Channel Billing allows platforms to provide trusted local payment options while keeping reporting, entitlements, and customer management consistent across all channels.
