ShoZu has teamed-up with global roaming provider MAXroam to provide iPhone users with a convenient way to minimise the cost of sharing photos and video clips while roaming.
Under the agreement, iPhone users who have purchased the ShoZu application (costs $4.99) will get an access to MAXroam’s service, which provides data roaming discounts of up to 70% in 139 countries. On the other hand, MAXroam users get the ShoZu iPhone application practically for free.
To sign up for MAXroam’s service, ShoZu users request a coupon code from ShoZu.com and then redeem it on the MAXroam Web site to receive a $4.99 credit toward MAXroam service. ShoZu users also must purchase a MAXroam SIM card, which is included in the MAXroam service bundles.
The other way round also works – iPhone owners who visit the MAXroam website will be invited to purchase the ShoZu from the AppStore and receive a coupon code that will give their MAXroam account a $4.99 credit.
Neat marketing plot, don’t you think? After all, if you’re going to need roaming service, why not get a free app along the way. And ShoZu is certainly a useful addition to your application library.
