Prosperity & family: Smart choices in the Year of the Snake

MANILA, Philippines - The ang paos are out and tikoys of all shapes and sizes are being shared. But what better way is there to say Kung Hei Fat Choi, in the Year of the Snake, than by using a brand new SIM inspired by the familial ties of the ever-growing Filipino-Chinese community in the Philippines.

Wireless leader Smart Communications Inc. trains the spotlight on family and prosperity by unveiling the Smart Infinity Chinese Prosperity SIM. Designed after the mobile communication needs of the Filipino-Chinese community, this new postpaid offer comes with fringe perks — the kind that appeal to the practical, stylish and business savvy attitude of this close-nit niche.

“The Chinese Prosperity SIM continues Smart’s tradition of coming up with services that are not only world-class and innovative, but also truly relevant and attuned to the needs of mobile subscribers. With this product, we hope to give the members of the Filipino-Chinese community a delightful experience every time they use their mobile service, and enable them to live more,” said Emmanuel Lorenzana, executive vice president and head of Wireless Consumer Division at Smart.

And because the Chinese New Year is all about good tidings, Smart has powered up the Chinese Prosperity SIM with a number of exclusive perks. Smart Infinity subscribers who avail themselves of this service will be able to enjoy lower IDD and SMS rates to Hong Kong and China, and even enjoy exclusive discounts to various merchant partners including Chinese restaurants, drugstores and groceries. This will help them shop, travel and talk in style – without having to strain their budget.

The Chinese Prosperity SIM is also a one-stop shop for stronger communication channels between families, seeing that it can be bundled with the Smart Infinity Family Plan 8000. The said plan also comes with one primary line worth P5,000, and two supplementary lines worth P1,500 each. The primary line owner can also opt for three supplementary lines with a consumable data load of P1,000.              

All Infinity plans also come with service-driven perks such as concierge services and a backup SIM, while a variety of lifestyle-driven perks like access to events, wellness packages, among others, may also be enjoyed by Infinity subscribers.

“We came up with the Chinese Prosperity SIM because we value and truly understand the needs of our Filipino-Chinese subscribers. With this service, we do not only address their individual needs, we also include their family members’ needs,” ended Julie Carceller, Smart Infinity department head.
