Globe
adds WhatsApp to the list of free messaging apps in its portfolio as it struck a partnership with the world's biggest messaging app. The Facebook-owned messaging app will come to Globe's roster of
free services starting April 30.
You
can now access WhatsApp for free whether you're in a Globe Prepaid Promo or
with Globe myLifestyle Plan. This promo will cover all Globe's prepaid schemes like GoSakto, GoSurf, GoUnli, etc; alongside the company’s postpaid plans. With
free WhatsApp, Globe customers can exchange text and video messages, create
messaging groups, and send each other unlimited images without having to pay
any extra amount on top of their current prepaid promos or monthly service fees
(MSF).
Recently,
the messaging app has added a calling feature that allows users to make and
accept calls, decline or respond to calls with a message, use a speakerphone
and mute the microphone feature.
WhatsApp
is a cross-platform, real-time mobile messaging application that allows
millions of people around the world to stay connected with their friends and
family. To access free WhatsApp, customers can just download the app and use it
free of data charges instantly.
WhatsApp
was acquired by Facebook for a whopping USD 19 billion last year. This partnership with WhatsApp also
signals Globe’s growing portfolio of free bundled apps in their services.
