MANILA, July 12, 2013 – Globe Telecom sealed an exclusive partnership with Viber, a leading instant messaging application, to provide its clients unlimited access to Viber services, complete with text, call and chat services, without the need for logging on to a Wi-Fi network.
The partnership between Globe and Viber will be beneficial to the two companies, with the Philippine telco giant exploring additional revenue means while attaining its goal to become a full-fledged digital brand. At the same time, Viber will be able to continue its global expansion.
“We are happy and excited to collaborate with Viber as their exclusive Philippine telco partner to expand their presence and user base in the country,” said Peter Bithos, Globe Telecom senior advisor for consumer business.
“With Viber’s revolutionary features that Filipinos love, it is definitely a refreshing experience to use the application without having to wait for Wi-Fi. With the innovative offers from Globe, every Filipino will now get a chance to explore the Viber experience,” remarked Talmon Marco, Viberchief executive officer.
Bithos said Globe subscribers can now enjoy different Viber bundles and promos starting at P25 which they can use to call and text, not just families and friends from same network, but also those using other networks here and abroad.
“Our prepaid subscribers can use Viber all-they-want, anytime, anywhere, worry-free – and that’s a Globe Guarantee,” he said.
