FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Member Reduces Cost of Termination Using Arbinet’s New Download Orders with Codes Feature
The account manager at an Arbinet Member was time constrained and could only focus on reducing cost of termination in Arbinet’s dynamic spot market for his highest volume destinations. This Member has found that Download Orders with Codes offers the perfect way to address this issue.
Business Requirement
The account manager was also responsible for generating revenue by selling in Arbinet’s exchange and had a limited amount of time available to uncover savings opportunities in the fast moving markets for each of Arbinet’s 1,200 destinations. He focused his efforts on his highest volume destinations, but knew there were further savings opportunities.
Arbinet suggested a way to use its recently released Download Orders with Codes feature to automate the least cost routing (LCR) analysis process to uncover more savings.
Member’s Experience with Download Orders with Codes
Arbinet’s Account Development Specialist explained that the Download Orders with Codes feature. It generates an A-Z list of each market in Arbinet’s exchange and lists the Member’s orders, with associated calling codes, to provide an input for automated LCR analysis. For markets where the Member has not placed a bid order, the feature supplies the AssuredAxcess termination price. If a Member sends traffic to a market without a bid, Arbinet automatically terminates it at the AssuredAxcess price.
After beginning to use the feature in late February, this Member uncovered dramatically more savings opportunities in Arbinet’s marketplace.
- In January the Member bought 31 markets for an average of 81,500 minutes per day.
- By March the Member bought 263 markets and an average of 260,000 minutes per day.
Results
Using Download Orders with Codes, this Member has realized the following benefits:
- Member identified 232 additional markets where it could save by sending traffic to Arbinet.
- Member automated its LCR analysis of Arbinet buy-side opportunities, saving time.
- Member freed time to focus on selling opportunities while also improving margins by lowering cost of termination.
The Download Orders with Codes feature provides Members a more convenient way to access rates and codes from a consolidated report to simplify integration with their route planning systems and maximize opportunities on Arbinet. This feature also lets Members see bid and ask orders, PrivateExchange details, and current or upcoming AssuredAxcessSM Rates with codes in a single file.
