Premium.Chat推出付费视频通话功能以支持远程工作

Premium.Chat推出了视频通话功能，以应对因新冠疫情激增的远程工作需求。

2020年5月20日，纽约格林维尔- Premium.Chat的新付费视频通话功能正式发布。此次发布是该公司迄今为止基于网络的按分钟计费聊天应用的最重大升级。它是对支持远程工作的技术解决方案需求激增的回应。

在谈到该新功能时，Premium.Chat首席执行官Michael Szerencsy说：“各种企业家、专业人士和自由职业者正在改变他们的工作方式，以应对新冠疫情的大流行。全球范围内的封锁导致视频聊天需求飙升，而视频通话应用对全球经济的重要性也达到了前所未有的程度。

但是Szerencsy认为，流行的视频通话应用无法满足专业用户的需求：“标准应用不支持计费——但这正是Premium.Chat的优势。我们的会员可以为指定的视频通话时间设置固定费率，也可以按分钟设置费用。我们处理帐单的所有方面，并将资金直接存入我们会员的银行或PayPal帐户。“

新冠病毒疫苗的等待期预计将持续到明年，因此转向远程工作的可能性似乎将持续下去。同时，政策制定者面临着优先考虑绿色复苏方面的压力，从通勤和面对面会议的根本转变可能会触发视频电话的全面采用。

远程工作的激增伴随着自由职业的长期增长。早在2017年10月，一项具有里程碑意义的自由职业研究(https://www.upwork.com/press/2017/10/17/freelancing-in-america-2017/)就曾大胆预测，美国50%以上的劳动力将在2027年成为自由职业者。现在可以预计，由全球经济衰退引发的裁员将使这一预测比原先的预计更早实现。

关于Premium.Chat：

Premium.Chat是一个付费聊天和视频聊天计费平台，它能让会员有效地将他们的时间货币化。这个基于Web的应用程序广泛使用于自由职业者和各个领域的专业人员——从专业顾问到成人聊天提供者、生活教练、心理医生等等。 Premium.Chat最近在全球范围内扩展了可用性，现在为全球用户群提供服务。更多资讯请访问：https://Premium.Chat。

Premium.Chat Launches Paid Video Calling Feature to Support Remote Working

Premium.Chat Rolls Out Video Calling Functionality in Response to the Covid-19-Triggered Surge in Remote Working

May 20, 2020 Greenvale, New York – Today sees the announcement of Premium.Chat’s new paid video calling functionality. The roll-out represents the most significant upgrade to the company’s web-based pay per minute chat app to date. It comes in response to a surge in demand for tech solutions that support remote working.

Speaking of the new functionality, Premium.Chat CEO Michael Szerencsy said: ‘Entrepreneurs, professionals, and freelancers of all kinds are changing the way they work in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. The near-worldwide lockdown has caused a huge spike in demand for video chat, and video calling apps have never been more important to the global economy.’

But Szerencsy believes that popular video calling apps fail to meet the needs of professional users: ‘Standard apps don’t support billing – but that’s where Premium.Chat excels. Our members can set flat rates for a specified length of video call, or set their fees on a per-minute basis. We handle all aspects of billing, and credit funds directly to our members’ bank or PayPal accounts.’

With the wait for a Covid-19 vaccine expected to last until next year, the switch to remote working looks likely to last. Meanwhile, policy makers are under pressure to prioritize a green recovery, with a radical shift away from commuting and face-to-face meetings likely to trigger the whole-scale adoption of video calling.

This surge in remote working comes alongside a longer-term rise in freelancing. Back in October 2017, a landmark freelancing study (https://www.upwork.com/press/2017/10/17/freelancing-in-america-2017/) boldly predicted that more than 50% of the US workforce would be freelance by 2027. It’s now expected that layoffs triggered by a global recession will make that prediction a reality far sooner than originally forecast.
