VeriSign, which bought out Europe’s largest wireless content mediation company Jamba in May, will roll out its newly purchased wireless content provider service in North America possibly later this year, according to Reuters.

The Jamba service will start in North America later in 2004 or early in 2005, but will be expanded first to Asia this year and will be offered in Latin America early next year.

VeriSign is in talks with numerous U.S. companies to use the Jamba content, including one of the three largest wireless operators, two long-distance phone carriers and several smaller, regional wireless companies. As in Europe, VeriSign expects to offer Jamba as a “white label” service to the carriers, meaning it would carry the phone company’s name but
VeriSign would receive a fee per transaction.
