MILLION-DOLLAR DEAL SEES EUROPEAN OPERATOR AMONG FIRST TO OFFER
    SUBSCRIBERS BENEFITS OF FLEXIBLE PRICING PLANS AND FAIR-USAGE


TORONTO, April 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Redknee (TSX: RKN), a leading
provider of mission-critical software and solutions for communications service
providers, today announced that a European wireless operator will be the first
to deploy Redknee's newly enhanced Next Generation Rating and Charging (NGRC)
platform, version 6.0. Redknee's newest release of NGRC enables operators to
provide flexible tiered offerings and dynamic subscriber controls for mobile
data and broadband services.
Redknee is encouraging operators to roll out flexible tiered pricing models
where the subscriber can choose how to pay for different services by
allocating charges towards prepaid, postpaid or one-time accounts in real
time. By moving away from restricted flat-rate plans, Redknee's NGRC 6.0
provides subscribers with the flexibility to adopt new services, and operators
the ability to provide innovative business models to increase the adoption of
data services.
NGRC 6.0 provides subscribers with the visibility and control they want with
respect to their usage limits. It also gives them the flexibility to exceed
these usage limits with service upgrades or temporary bandwidth boosting
capabilities. With real-time communication between the subscriber and operator
at the time of each initial service transaction, subscribers are encouraged to
manage their own accounts through self-care options, and ultimately, to better
control and manage their communication costs.
The new NGRC 6.0 platform will help drive subscriber adoption of the
operator's 3G network and services, making Internet access available to more
of the region's population. It is anticipated that revenue from this contract
will be realized in Redknee's 2009 fiscal year.
Lucas Skoczkowski, CEO, Redknee, said, "We are pleased to provide solutions to
help operators enhance their relationships with their subscribers and bring
added flexibility and clarity to how operators charge for and bundle wireless
data services and applications. Redknee's tier-one customers, as well as our
high growth market customers, now have full access to our advanced solutions,
enabling operators to forge long-lasting relationships with their subscribers
as they launch new 3G and mobile broadband services."
