Philips required an advanced, broadly integrated and secure payment solution when planning their 2nd generation Smart TV service across the globe to handle and manage eCommerce payment transactions.
The system was required to enable users to purchase content such as VOD, as well as apps and other purchases direct through their Smart TV through a centralized payment account.
MPP Global delivers cloud CRM and eCommerce solutions to the world with Philips Smart TV 
The Philips Smart TV combines TV broadcasting, video-on-demand, internet browsing and access to a library of apps and social media. Taking converged media to another level Philips Smart TV is a giant leap in terms of what is capable from Connected TV services.
Drawing upon MPP Global’s expertise providing the award-winning CRM and eCommerce platform, eSuite, for Connected-TV services and the media and entertainment sectors, Philips selected MPP Global to deliver the complete CRM and eCommerce solution for the Smart TV.
MPP Global’s API library (SDK) was used to directly integrate with Philips’ system to provide payment functions that will be shared with app developers and content providers, enabling Philips to offer their customers secure and seamless access to paid-for content delivery, central storage and re-use of consumer payment details and promoting one-click transactions. Consumers are able to purchase products, services or content from hundreds of content providers via their centralized payment account.
eSuite utilizes secure centralized payment accounts and one-click transactions, it also enables one household to have multiple accounts with different log-ons for the same billing account. This allows parents to monitor their children’s payment and viewing habits through one central source.
Enabling eCommerce payments in multiple currencies and multiple languages also makes the service perfectly positioned for international usage, which Philips Smart TV delivers. Other features provided by MPP Global include a customer support console which enables Philips’ customer representatives to manage customer enquiries, such as processing refunds through the online payment system.
