Turning Telcos into Techcos: We make GSMA Open Gateway APIs easy, fast, and profitable for operators.

We've made Open Gateway Easy. Fast. Profitable. Simple. Compliant.

Open Gateway is a paradigm shift for mobile network operators; a huge opportunity for operators to replace lost revenue streams by rolling out game-changing new services through open source CAMARA APIs as part of GSMA’s Open Gateway program.

Operators need a platform and a Channel Partner to expose the APIs which allows them to use their assets as well as resell mobile identity APIs (and many more) to enterprises who need them more than ever – a brand new market for operators to take advantage of.

Sekura.id is a trusted, approved GSMA Open Gateway Channel Partner using its unrivalled industry API experience and the unique SAFr platform to make new revenue flow for operators, simply and quickly. Right now.

APIs Simplified.
Revenue Amplified.

To expose their customer databases to the Open Gateway APIs, operators need a certified channel partner like Sekura.id as well as a robust framework to facilitate API exposure. We handle compliance, consent and offer technical and commercial go-to-market support, effectively bridging the MNO-enterprise gap. So you don’t have to.

We do it all. Quickly and simply.

One unique platform.
Myriad benefits.

The SAFr framework offers unmatched agility and flexibility, akin to Nokia’s Exposure Platform (NEP), but with many added advantages. Unlike standalone platforms, it combines global scalability with CAMARA or Sekura.id’s cutting-edge APIs, allowing you to monetise your assets and offer enterprises robust, compliant identity and verification solutions. 

Innovation meets accessibility. Telcos become Techcos.

Why Sekura.id?
Simplicity. Speed. Experience. Success.

SAFr, Sekura.id’s secure, scalable easy-to-connect to platform, delivers 100% uptime and ISO-certified compliance with no PII stored. With six-week deployment, twelve-week revenue, and global operator partnership experience, Sekura.id simplifies API rollout. 

Successes include two operators already generating new revenue streams, driving the Open Gateway revolution for telcos.

Telcos need new revenue streams.

Over The Top.

Over-the-top (OTT) services like WhatsApp, META and Zoom have drastically cut into MNO revenues, with voice revenue projected to fall by 45% and $2.5 billion lost to business messaging apps. Long-distance call revenues have also plummeted, highlighting the urgent need for adaptation. By embracing Open Gateway APIs, operators can unlock new enterprise revenue streams without cannibalising SMS OTP income, with Sekura.id leading the way in monetisation innovation for telcos.

Open Gateway - Who's who.

Who's involved.

The GSMA Open Gateway program enables telcos to expose certified APIs via Open Gateway Channel partners. Central to this initiative are CAMARA APIs: open-source interfaces standardising app-to-network communication. Developed with the Linux Foundation, these APIs benefit from an open-source framework. The TM Forum oversees onboarding, standardising, and innovating East/West APIs, ensuring consistent collaboration and advancement across the telecommunications industry.

Future-proof first.

Why SAFr?

Sekura.id’s platform is built for the future, which will eventually give operators seamless access to the 94 CAMARA APIs which are becoming certified by GSMA. These APIs offer critical solutions for enterprises and mobile connectivity tools. While these are being finalised, the SAFr framework will ensure operators are equipped to innovate and stay ahead in an ever-evolving digital landscape. Think of it as being the ‘HD-ready TV’ you bought before HD was commonplace.

How you'll monetise your best asset.

Enterprises, banks and fintechs need anti-fraud solutions. More than ever before. They are increasingly looking for identity solutions and want to verify and authorise their customers as well as prevent fraud. Your best asset is your user database and you can now expose it safely and compliantly via Open Gateway CAMARA APIs. 

Bonus: As an operator, you’ll cut out the ‘middle man’. Extra revenue or keener pricing.

Flexible revenue models to suit you.

These include transaction-based pricing, where enterprises pay per API call, a subscription model, providing flat-rate access to a suite of APIs on a quarterly or yearly basis or a revenue-sharing model, where fees for data access are shared between operators and Sekura.id, enabling mutually beneficial partnerships.

All the benefits, fewer risks.

It's Open Gateway without the Capex.
Or the headache.

Sekura.id offers a complete Open Gateway solution: the framework, rapid deployment, flexible payment models, and unmatched expertise in mobile identity services. 

Backed by decades of industry experience and a proven track record of success across verticals, Sekura.id makes Open Gateway adoption seamless, quick, and most importantly, profitable.

Still have questions? We’re here.

Yes. Open Gateway is a game-changer for mobile operators because it standardises how their networks connect with apps and businesses. Instead of building custom systems for each partner, operators can use a single set of tools to share services like location, security checks, and connectivity insights. This makes their networks more valuable, helps them earn revenue faster, and supports innovation by making it easier for companies to build cool features for users.

No. Open Gateway is also for any enterprise that wants to consume services like SIM Swap, Number Verify, Auth, KYC etc. – eventually more than 90 standard Open Gateway APIs. The enterprise requires a specialist Channel Partner like Sekura.id who will help them consume MNO data using an Open Gateway platform. We help operators expose their data through the APIs. One exposes, one consumes, but we help both to use Open Gateway APIs through the SAFr platform. 

Mobile network operators will need a Channel Partner with a platform because it streamlines the process of exposing their network APIs to businesses efficiently and at scale.

This saves operators time and resources, accelerates monetisation, and ensures their services reach a broader market with minimal friction.
