SK Telecom reported that the number of visits to PokéStops at T World stores nationwide has been steadily increasing since partnering with Pokémon GO.
Through this partnership, SK Telecom plans to provide tangible benefits to customers, including teenagers who are sensitive to data depletion and customers residing in sparsely populated areas, by offering free data for "Pokémon GO" to all SK Telecom customers until the end of June.
SK Telecom plans to introduce the 'Data Coupon Pokémon Edition' within May. The 'Data Coupon Pokémon Edition' is a special product that adds the benefit of providing Pokémon GO items to the data allowance of existing data coupons.
It will be released in two forms: online and physical coupons, with the physical coupons featuring Pokémon character designs. It is expected to be a useful benefit for teenage customers who are sensitive to data usage and find credit card payments difficult.
SK Telecom announced that, having announced an annual partnership with Niantic, it will continuously provide various benefits for game users and gradually pursue cooperation on AR-related technologies.
