Spinfone Technology
The Spinfone system is a complete client server mobile gaming solution, comprising two main components:
- A JAVA game downloaded from a WEB or WAP site directly to the players’ mobile device and;
- A server based gaming engine and back-office system, which run all the games and provide the marketing and CRM functions.
The games communicate through the Spinfone server via standard wireless data transfer protocols. All contact with the player (via SMS and WAP push) is sent through a third party messaging supplier. The Spinfone team has several billing partnerships in place and can facilitate the set-up of and manage the payment of the 3rd party messaging account on behalf of the client.
Game Application:
This is a small Java application (approximately 30K – 70K, depending on the type of wireless device) which is downloaded onto the phone from The SpinFone System. The game application interacts with the system and connects to a gaming server, which then drives the gameplay on the application and the phone via the user’s selected Internet connection.
SpinFone Server:
A server links the back-end gaming and back-office management systems with the wireless devices, and manages player registration, verification and authentication as well as the WAP push the players receive via SMS during the registration process.
