Pinger Says Germany Is 1st Stop in Taking Free Texting Global

Pinger, a mobile application, recently announced that it would be extending its free mobile communication services to Europe. Beginning in Germany later this summer, the company will allow users to send and receive text messages and phone calls for free. This is quite an achievement given the heavily regulated European market.

As Joe Sipher, the Chief Product/Marketing Officer and Co-founder of Pinger, explained to WebProNews, the capitalist system and the Telecommunications Act of 1996 helped to keep prices down in the U.S.

The truth make money on our advertising model

“It’s cheap enough where we can to tell the truth make money on our advertising model and after all pay for every text and pay for every phone number,” he said of the system in the U.S.

Pinger’s patent-pending research is a symmetry model that neutralizes these high costs by ensuring that no user sends more texts than he receives.

He believes that their model will help them expand into multiple other countries and not only simplify mobile communications, however also reduce the cost of them for all users.
