Filipinos keenly anticipating the launch of Pokemon GO can now stay updated
on the upcoming release of the game in the Philippines and fully enjoy the game when it launches with the help of freenet and PayMaya.
Now a certified worldwide phenomenon, Pokemon GO is a location-based mobile game developed by Niantic Labs in partnership with Nintendo affiliate The Pokemon Company. The mobile game allows players to catch Pokemon or "pocket monsters" as if in real life using the GPS and camera of their smartphones.
The game is currently available in Australia, New Zealand, USA, UK, and select European countries. It has yet to launch in any Asian country, including Japan where the original Pokemon game originated.
Get Pokemon GO updates with freenet
Those who want to stay updated on news about the upcoming release of the game in the
Philippines may now download the freenet app on the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store. Through freenet, Smart, TNT, and Sun subscribers will be able to read the latest news and social media feeds from the local Pokemon GO community for free and with no data charges.
This is part of freenet’s mission to enable communities such as those who are eager to play Pokemon GO to stay active and participate in various activities and discussions through digital means.
This follows the successful livestreaming of President Rodrigo Duterte’s inauguration and the
Gilas Pilipinas FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament games through freenet, which allowed Filipinos to be digitally present in these historic events even if they are not physically able to do so.
Purchase Pokecoins with PayMaya
Meanwhile, once the Pokemon GO app launches in the Philippines, players will be able to fully enjoy the game through inapp purchases with the help of PayMaya, the easiest way to pay online even without a credit card.
Players only have to download the PayMaya app on the Google Play Store or the Apple App
Store, load up their accounts with at least P60 to cover the standard app store verification fee,
and link their virtual VISA card to their app store accounts to be able to make inapp purchases for Pokecoins, the inapp currency used inside the Pokemon GO game.
With the help of Pokecoins, players will be able to purchase various items that will help them easily navigate the game, such as Pokeballs to catch Pokemon with, Pokemon eggs that allow them to “hatch” Pokemon, Potions to restore the health of their Pokemon, and Incense and
Lure Modules that make it easy to attract wild Pokemon to their immediate vicinity.
Inapp purchases are made more convenient with PayMaya as mobile game players can easily load up at any of the over 15,000 PayMaya reloading stations nationwide that include SM Malls Business Centers, Robinsons Department Stores, Bayad Centers, 7Eleven stores with Cliqq kiosks, TouchPay Kiosks, and Smart Padala Centers, on top of online banking via BDO.
Aside from the mobile app, PayMaya customers can also opt to have their own PayMaya physical prepaid card which can be used in brickandmortar stores worldwide that accept Visa. A variant also comes with its own beep™ wallet, allowing users to ride the MRT, LRT, some city buses and other beep™powered transportation for their daily commute, so they can easily explore the city in search of wild Pokemon.
Users who upgrade their PayMaya account can use their PayMaya for peertopeer money transfers and ATM withdrawals.
