Question 4

Have you integrated third-party APIs in a Symfony project? Can you give an example?

Answer 4

Yes, in my previous role, integrating third-party APIs for direct carrier billing was a core part of my work.

Yes, in my previous role, integrating third-party APIs for direct carrier billing was a key part of my work. This was important because my company distributes premium OTT media and entertainment services in emerging countries.

By integrating with providers like Bizao, Dimoco, Dot, and NTH, we enabled users to easily pay for these services directly through their mobile carriers. This helped:

Increase reach by making the service accessible to people without credit cards or other payment methods.
Boost monetization by offering a seamless and trusted payment option.
Enhance engagement by ensuring users could subscribe and pay easily, encouraging them to interact with our content more often.

These integrations supported the company’s goal of expanding beyond traditional distribution channels and making premium content available to more users.
