Foremost telecom network, Globacom, has unveiled Glo Bounce, a special product
designed to deliver peerless value to Nigerian youths with calls in campuses at
5 Kobo per second, says the management.
Globacom’s General Manager, Consumer Marketing, Mr. Ashutosh
Tiwary told DigitalSENSE Business
News that the national operator developed Bounce in order to excite
Nigerian youths and cater for their unique interests.
He also said that the new product offers many benefits to young
subscribers on the Glo network. Such benefits include special call rates on
campuses, free data, free ring back tunes, zero Facebook and unlimited free Short
Messaging Service (SMS).
The product, he said, was developed based on extensive research
which zeroed down on the “passion points” of Nigerian youths. Their basic needs
and their desired benefits were taken into consideration before coming up with
the product which has everything for everyone.
Tiwary explained that customers on Bounce can call other Bounce
customers at the heavily discounted rate of 5k per second and send SMS at the
low rate of N3 per SMS. Just as Bounce customers also stand to enjoy the Campus
Zone rate of 5k per second to any Glo line and a flat rate of 10k per second to
all other networks.
Other benefits include free data of 30MB on every recharge of
N200 and above, one free SMS for every SMS sent by the subscriber, free
browsing on Facebook, free ring back tunes for one month and free night calls
from 12 midnight to 5 am for every subscriber who uses a minimum of
N30 before midnight.
“Glo Bounce is a special package with unrivalled benefits that
takes into consideration the lifestyle needs of the youths and ensures that
they get the best from the Glo network. Glo Bounce provides the youths with
unlimited opportunities and the right tools to achieve their dreams”, he said.
“Because of the youth target for the product, the campus zone
rate of N5k per second will be available in all tertiary institutions across
the country. This is a big opportunity for youths everywhere to interact with
their peers on the Glo network and enjoy these unlimited benefits”, he stated.
He urged Nigerian youths to migrate to Bounce so as to enjoy the
superior benefits it offers. He stated that the product is targeted at all
existing and new prepaid customers on the Glo network, especially those who are
youthful or young-at-heart.
“With Bounce, our target is to create the largest youth
community in Nigeria. It is a great platform for the youths to express
themselves and reach the heights of their aspiration. With Campus zone, the
students will now want to ‘live’ on the campus because they are able to connect
with anybody, anywhere on Glo at 5k per second which is the lowest call rate in
Nigeria,” he said.
“We foresee that Glo Bounce will have a transformational impact
on the youths of Nigeria and on the way they use their phones and other
services and features for far reaching impact,” he declared, adding that to register
for the Glo Bounce tariff, subscribers are required to dial *170*4#.
The launch was witnessed by some youth leaders and some Glo
ambassador, Burna Boy, Chairman, Council of Faculty Presidents, University of
Lagos, Nelson Oluwafisayo, SUG President, YabaTech, Afeez Babalola, Glo
ambassador, MI, Ex-SUG President, LASU, Agbomeji Ibrahim and Glo ambassador and
