Internet Solutions’ AlwaysOn partners with Samsung to provide fr
Internet Solutions’ subsidiary, Always On, in partnership with Samsung Electronics, will provide all new and existing Samsung smart device users with 1GB of free Wi-Fi access per month for 12 months, at more than 1200 AlwaysOn hotspots around South Africa.
“As a leading player in the mobile market, Samsung presented the ideal partner for AlwaysOn,” says Nico Pretorius, Managing Director at AlwaysOn. “This affiliation provides AlwaysOn with a broader customer base, while in turn, we can offer Samsung users the most substantial Wi-Fi coverage in the country.
“The partnership with AlwaysOn is a natural extension of our value proposition to our customers. We live in the connected age and it makes sense for Samsung to incorporate a service offering that combines innovative mobile devices with national wireless connectivity,” says Craige Fleischer, Director of Mobile Communications at Samsung Electronics South Africa.
Samsung is enabling users to enjoy a connected experience across all their mobile products. Users will be able to access the hotspots through the AlwaysOn application available on the local App marketplace (for smartphones and tablets) or via a Web browser (for feature phones). The service will be offered retrospectively to Wi-Fi enabled devices sold in the past 3 years.
“These new offerings to our extensive stable of media and value added services provide our customers with a more integrated lifestyle experience without the need to carry additional devices. It is also a natural extension of the partnership with AlwaysOn to give people more solutions that meet their business and lifestyle needs,” concludes Fleischer.
