Avea selects Velti and Gantek to
manage new mobile campaigns

London, UK - Velti’s partnership with Gantek has secured one of Turkey’s most
innovative mobile operators as a customer after Avea selected its Mobile Marketing
Platform (MMP). The platform will be used to conduct customer-targeted mobile
marketing and advertising activities, as well as managing Avea’s WAP banner
inventory, WAP micro-sites, user communities, SMS campaigns and sponsored
person-to-person services.

Velti’s MMP is a proprietary software platform that allows advertising agencies and
mobile operators to plan, execute and monitor multi level mobile marketing and
advertising campaigns. From the simplest SMS opt-in campaign, through to branded
mobile communities, social networking and loyalty clubs, Velti’s MMP can sit
alongside existing mobile marketing systems or manage the entire process, making
it easier for operators to plan, execute and evaluate the efficiency of all campaign
activities.

Gantek is one of Turkey’s leading technology and solutions providers and it is
working with Velti to provide mobile value added services in the country, based on
Velti’s MMP.

“Avea is recognised as a game-changing mobile operator, focused on delivering the
very latest technologies and services to its customers,” explains Velti CEO Alex
Moukas. “By choosing Velti’s MMP, Avea has shown itself to be at the forefront of
mobile marketing leadership. We’re looking forward to helping deliver many
innovative mobile campaigns to over 12 million Avea customers across Turkey.”

“Velti’s MMP gives us the tools to create, launch and manage a full spectrum of
innovative mobile marketing and advertising campaigns,” adds CMO, Ilker Kocak
from Avea. “Customers choose Avea because of our innovative reputation. Working
with Velti and Gantek means we can offer not only a great mobile telephony service
but also deliver highly-targeted, engaging additional mobile services for the benefit
of our users.”'
