MagnusBilling setup & configuration
The rating and billing layer telecom resellers need: rate cards, prepaid balances, trunk management, and invoicing configured correctly on top of Asterisk.
VoIP Billing & Rating Engine
MagnusBilling is an open-source billing and rating engine built on Asterisk, designed for VoIP resellers, calling-card operators, and small carriers who need to charge for the minutes they carry.
Billing configuration is unforgiving — a wrong rate card, timezone, or billing increment quietly loses money on every call. We set MagnusBilling up so your rating, balances, and invoices reflect exactly the commercial terms you intend.
Our MagnusBilling engagement, in scope
Rating & rate cards
Destination-based rate cards, billing increments, connection charges, and markup rules configured so every call is rated to your actual commercial terms.
Prepaid & postpaid billing
