Converged payment becomes the cash machine of user-centric broadband services. As new services, such as music and video streaming, become an ever more important part of the mobile operator's revenue stream, it is worth examining the key role of payment systems - how billing, charging and rating services will enable mobile operators to make the money they need and expect from these services. Seen from the user's point of view, payment is not really the primary interest. However, taking a closer look, the user has a real interest in a user-centric payment system. The Alcatel payment system value proposition facilitates payment for the end user, as well as for the operator.
