Abstract :
In the developing countries, the long-term development of a services platform held by network operator is difficult because people have lower resources and the services providers have low financial means. The business model of revenue sharing seems the most appropriate. In fact, this business model aims the revenue sharing from traffic generated by services platform. Therefore, each services provider is paid according to a rate of revenue from the traffic generated by his services. In addition, the revenue sharing allows customers to avoid paying additional fees. Thus, a virtuous circle is created. More and more customers use the services platform because the services are free (free if the transmission cost is not taken account), which attracts more and more services providers. Moreover, the increasing amount of traffic creates a profitability business model for the network operator.
