Late yesterday, Syniverse Technologies said it is now offering a comprehensive suite of roaming services to wireless carriers and operators.

The new services include data clearing, financial clearing and fraud protection, in a roaming hub to help wireless operators quickly resolve complexities associated with roaming in general.

With Syniverse's new hub, mobile operators can now expand their roaming footprints, launch new wireless services and manage roaming partner relationships.

Some of the hub components include the company’s Data Clearing House (DCH), Financial Clearing House (FCH), signaling, agreement management, RAEX, operational support services and the company’s Datanet NRTRDE solution.

Additionally, the new hub is fully compliant with GSMA specifications.

During a recent GSMA trial, Syniverse worked with six operators in four countries and on three continents to prove that the roaming hub could be used on a global scale.

Tony Holcombe, Syniverse CEO says “although Syniverse already has a significant global presence, we plan to continue strengthening our hub connections by engaging a number of partners, making our hubbing capabilities even more robust.”

For Syniverse, this is the second hub announcement since Oct. 2. The first announcement involved a messaging hub that delivers interworking between operators for IM, SMS, MMS and subscriber presence, on Sep. 18.

Last week, Verizon Wireless extended its contract with Syniverse for its roaming services for an additional three years.
