IPC Systems Launches the Revolutionary OneCall Community
IPC Systems, a pioneer in trading communications technology, is redefining connectivity in global financial markets with the introduction of the OneCall Community. This innovative initiative reshapes the aging model of per-line pricing by offering a comprehensive all-inclusive subscription, simplifying the way traders communicate.
The Backbone of Trading: Unlimited Private Lines
For years, private lines have served as the critical infrastructure for voice trading and communication between desks. IPC has built a robust network that supports around 200,000 voice traders, providing over 70,000 connections across 290 cities worldwide. However, traditional private lines have often created challenges in forecasting capacity and costs, leading to inefficiencies in trading operations.
Understanding the Customer Needs
“The old per-line pricing model often limited how the industry could connect,” said Kurt Adams, CEO of IPC. “OneCall Community is our response to the pressing demand for a flexible and transparent communication framework. This launch marks a significant advancement in minimizing the complexities and costs involved, allowing institutions to collaborate effortlessly across diverse markets.”
A Transformative Approach to Connectivity
IPC has made ongoing investments aimed at simplifying the process for capital market participants. The feedback from customers has been overwhelmingly positive, with more than 25% of IPC’s voice clientele already transitioning to the OneCall Community model, suggesting a strong preference for this new approach to communication.
Key Benefits of the OneCall Community
Participants in IPC's OneCall Community enjoy numerous advantages, including:
? Unlimited Private Lines – Clients can trade without constraints, as one subscription offers global connections to any counterparty through the IPC voice network.
? Future-Ready Communications – The solution ensures seamless integration of voice, data, and analytics services across various trading desks, fostering complete interoperability within the IPC suite of solutions.
Focusing on Future Growth
Adams further emphasized, “The introduction of OneCall Community is the result of comprehensive dialogue with our clients. We aim to enhance connectivity, making it seamless, inclusive, and intelligent, so traders can concentrate on innovation and growth rather than infrastructure challenges.”
This progressive change is part of IPC’s commitment to maintaining its position as a leader in trader voice connectivity. Recently, IPC has achieved substantial growth, highlighting its pivotal role in multiple financial markets globally. The organization has reported 13,000 new cloud and subscription bookings within fiscal 2025, raising the total to 28,500 seats.
