-

FOR ITS holiday promo, freenet, Voyager Innovation­s’ free internet platform, is giving away ultimate freebies to its users — a brand new Chevrolet Spark — on top of the latest gadgets such as MacBook Air laptops and iPhone 7 units.

Every week, starting from Nov. 8 to the second week of January 2018, freenet will be giving away two units of Macbook Air and eight units of iPhone 7 to its lucky users. This will culminate on Jan. 17, 2018, when freenet will then draw the winner of the Chevrolet Spark. To get a chance to win any of these

malupet na papremyo, all one has to do is download the freenet app, register using his/her mobile number and fill out the raffle form. This automatica­lly earns the user five raffle entries. Existing freenet users, meanwhile, can earn a raffle entry just by accessing freenet’s partner apps and sites, free of data charges.

“Christmas has always been a special occasion for us Filipinos. We don’t have to break our bank accounts just to spread some holiday cheer, or simply give out good vibes on an ordinary day. With freenet, not only are the Filipinos able to shop, book rides, and interact with their friends online, free of data-charge, they also get rewarded for doing so. Now, that’s the malupet na online experience we want them to get,” said Heidi Garayblas, head of Integrated Marketing for Hatch, Voyager Innovation­s’ marketing technology arm.

Freenet is the free internet platform of Voyager Innovation­s under its marketing technology arm, hatch. It allows Smart, Sun, and TnT subscriber­s to access the top apps and sites for news, shopping, travel, lifestyle, health, banking and finance, free of data charge.

Once registered, users can already browse through the apps and sites inside the freenet app without having to worry about unwanted data charges. Users, regardless of their mobile network provider, can also opt to complete in-app missions that will not only earn them additional raffle entries, but will also get them data or “MB” credits which they can use to surf the websites and apps outside of freenet.

The free internet platform also offers its users free access to social media sites: Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, along with Wattpad and gaming apps, Clash of Clans, Clash Royale, and Mobile Legends, from 6PM to 8PM everyday, which is otherwise known as the Netzee hour.

This Christmas season, users can all the more take advantage of freenet’s offerings. By accessing the app, one can easily shop in Lazada or Takatack for Christmas gifts, connect with distant loved ones on social media or book a flight for a holiday getaway, all free of data charge.
