Orange and Nokia to Extend Ovi Across the United Kingdom and France

London (ots/PRNewswire)

Orange and Nokia today
announced a new integrated Ovi service that widens the developer
ecosystem and gives Orange customers using Nokia handsets easier
access to more content. Orange is integrating Ovi content with the
best of its apps from the Orange Application Shop to give customers
simpler, more secure access to a wider range of content and services,
creating one easy and seamless experience. Nokia's Ovi Store with
Orange will be accessible by Orange customers in the UK and France in
2011.
Orange is working with Nokia to create a single sign-on for
customers on a range of new handsets that simplifies the registration
and purchasing process. Customers that purchase a Nokia device in the
Orange Signature range will enjoy a wider range of local content and
apps, sourced through the Orange developer community, and accessible
through the Ovi Store with Orange. Access is simple, not requiring
any additional registrations. For simplicity and convenience,
customers will be able to buy any app from the Ovi Store on their
Orange bill.
"Orange is always striving to create a great mobile multimedia
experience for customers. To be successful, access to content must be
simple, seamless and secure. That is why we are extending our
partnership with Nokia, combining innovation to create an intelligent
platform that brings an enhanced experience to our customers. By
joining the best of both worlds and creating this new service, we
believe Orange and Nokia together will bring significant benefits to
both our customers and developers," said Paul Francois Fournier,
Executive Vice President, Internet Services, Orange.
"Our data shows that two out of every three Ovi Store users
choose the simplicity of operator billing when purchasing content. By
offering more locally relevant content and the most convenient way to
pay for it, we believe Nokia's Ovi Store with Orange will be a hit
with consumers and provide developers with additional revenue
opportunities," said Marco Argenti, Vice President of Media, Nokia.
Nokia and Orange will be engaging with third party developers on
content creation for the Ovi Store during an Orange Partner Developer
Day on September 17th in London.
