CC Media

What CC Media does

CC Média (CCMedia S.A.R.L.) is a Marseille-based private telecommunications and multimedia service provider founded in 2005, operating under a French SARL structure with €65,792 in registered capital and registered at RCS Marseille B 394 623 151. The company is led by publication manager Christian Caumont and operates from a single headquarters at 25 rue Sainte, 13001 Marseille, serving clients primarily in France and Belgium.

The company delivers six interconnected cloud-based platforms: Gateway (Passerelle) for telephone network integration, Speech Recognition (Reconnaissance vocale), IVR/Audiotel services, Cross-Media Communication (inter-médias), Secured Internet Micropayments, and an SMS Platform supporting 8 European languages. These services are positioned upstream of client telephone installations, enabling businesses to manage inbound communications without modifying existing PBX or telephone infrastructure. Technical components include voice recognition, IVR routing, SMS gateway, and a secure credit card transaction lookup system that does not store card numbers.

Revenue is generated through a mix of usage-based billing (SMS, IVR), subscription or recurring fees (voice recognition, gateway), and transaction fees (micropayments). Pricing is quote-based rather than publicly disclosed, with multi-year contracts typical for B2B clients. The go-to-market is sales-led direct, distributed through a multilingual website and supported by dedicated helpdesks in France and Belgium. The customer base is split between B2B (primary) and B2C, with nine client logos displayed on the website but customer names not publicly identified.
