A genuine hub for players in the digital domain, Orange acts as a value-creating intermediary, inventing new high-added-value services for customers, in partnership with the major online and content players.
These partnerships, which provide a real boost to competitiveness, aim to revolutionize usage thanks to the pooling of specialist know-how from the various players.
To this end, Orange entered a partnership with Deezer, the leading European site for listening to music, to give its customers mobile and internet offers that integrate unlimited access to a catalog of over 7 million songs, a first for the French market. The Deezer Premium service, included in mobile and ADSL offers from Orange in France, had 1.2 million subscribers at the end of 2011.
With Dailymotion, the world’s second-largest online video website, Orange has developed a full offer of videos that can be accessed by all online screens (via the web, wi-fi, 3G), thus meeting a genuine customer expectation.
Orange has also worked together with Microsoft, the world leader in software products, to propose a wide range of devices offering simple, quick access to Microsoft’s emblematic services, and to Orange’s flagship apps (Orange TV, Orange Me, Orange Daily, etc). At the end of 2011, Orange TV was made available via the Xbox 360 games console, offering its customers a unique experience; they could use the games console to control their television, either by voice activation, or by movement via Kinect.
After “My Contents” and “Contacts Backup”, Orange, in partnership with Evernote, now provides its mobile or internet customers in France with even more Cloud services, giving them a simple way to keep track of and easily find all the things important to them.
Lastly, in Africa with Google, the world leader on the web, Orange has revolutionized mobile internet thanks to SMS technology that works on all mobile networks (including GSM, the Global System for Mobile Communications), thus providing Orange customers with a wide range of internet services that were previously only available to Smartphone and broadband internet users.
Also in Africa, Orange has launched a new service to make Facebook™ accessible from any telephone in the African countries where the Group is established. Thanks to Facebook via USSD (Unstructured Supplementary Service Data), Orange offers mobile access to this service to over one million additional customers in Africa, and for many, this is their first ever access.
Because social networks and content are now available at the heart of the digital world, Orange makes its network available to its partners, as well as its distribution resources (physical and online points of sale, etc.). It also addresses all customer types, from senior citizens to digital natives, not forgetting the general public, in order to offer new added-value services.
