• Tym2Sell uses a unique fusion of WAP, XHTML-MP and compression to produce lightning fast transaction speed and ultra-low data usage on any cellular phone with a WAP enabled browser.
• A complete set of web services are available for all the functions within the system, allowing for easy integration by other systems.
• The entire application is language enabledand all screens, labels and messages can be easily customized by client support personnel and simultaneously displayed to sellers speaking a variety of languages.
• Sellers are sensitive to cellphone data-usageas they typically pay for it by kilobyte. Tym2Sell’s design uses a miniscule amount of cellphone data usage.
• If a user goes through the entire menu system (multiple levels) and then selects a voucher to sell and sells it, the whole navigation and selling process involves just a single roundtrip to the server and just 4,200 bytes of data usage. In most countries 4,200 bytes of data will cost the seller around 0.1 USA cent.
• Database design closely coupled with server-side application allows a small server to easily handle 15,000 sellers selling hundreds of thousands of airtime vouchers per day, all with sub-second response.

Tym2Sell has “extensibility exit points” built into both the database (able to be customized by database administration personnel) as well as into the object model (able to be customized by programming staff) which allow full site customization by a customer to perform the following:

• Automatically feeding an external financial system with real-time sales data
• Allowing various discrete types ofseller discounting modelsbased on sales volumes / minimum target levels or level in the distribution chain.
• Allowing multi-level recruitment royalty schemesto be implemented. These could be based on receiving royalties from more than one level of recruits or schemes whereby royalty percentages increase depending on the number or quality of recruits.
• Adding someadditional incentives(such as weekly prizes) based on certain sales or recruitment targets being met.
• Performing someadditional sales validation. Such as not allowing certain sellers to sell certain items or only allowing certain sellers to sell in a certain way (e.g.. SMS of voucher numbers only).

• No data network costs (tiny cost carried by seller)
• No handheld or other devices (sellers use their own existing cellular phones)
• No fixed lines
• No shops, stalls or other formal infrastructure required
• No contracts (no trust needs to be established between seller and cellphone company)
• No credit exposure (as sellers must maintain positive balance)
• No equipment maintenance & insurance (the seller’s cellphone is their POS)
• You get a massive distribution network of tens of thousands of sellers spread to the most distant and remote regions of any country within weeks as it virally spreads with an almost zero investment in infrastructure or marketing.
• Stock holding is kept to minimum (all airtime voucher stock is on central server) – no stock held at various points throughout distribution network.
• Positive cash-flow turns into a huge asset.
