Nu-mi aduc aminte sa fi platit vreodata pentru abonamentul WhatsApp Messenger, desi am instalat aplicatia dupa ce a devenit gratuita, utilizatorii beneficiind de 1 an de gratuitate dupa instalare, utilizarea sa fiind taxata cu 1 euro anual dupa aceea.
WhatsApp Messenger era singura aplicatie de mesagerie importanta care percepea, in teorie, un abonament anual pentru utilizare, restul aplicatiilor competitoare fiind oferite complet gratuit, asa ca aceasta schimbare nu ar trebui sa mire pe cineva.
Acum daca va intrebati cum va mai scoate Facebook bani din WhatsApp Messenger, ei bine compania americana le va cere companiilor bani pentru a putea contacta utilizatorii retelei, deci nu vom vedea reclame traditionale, ci vom putea primi mesaje de la linii aerie, bani, etc.
Naturally, people might wonder how we plan to keep WhatsApp running without subscription fees and if today’s announcement means we’re introducing third-party ads. The answer is no. Starting this year, we will test tools that allow you to use WhatsApp to communicate with businesses and organizations that you want to hear from. That could mean communicating with your bank about whether a recent transaction was fraudulent, or with an airline about a delayed flight. We all get these messages elsewhere today – through text messages and phone calls – so we want to test new tools to make this easier to do on WhatsApp, while still giving you an experience without third-party ads and spam.
Cu peste 900 de milioane de utilizatori anual, aplicatia WhatsApp Messenger sta la baza celei mai mari retele de mesagerie de pe planeta, iar aceasta schimbare pune in discutie utilizarea datelor asociate utilizatorilor care o folosesc.
Multa lume se teme ca Facebook vinde datele inregistrate prin WhatsApp Messenger catre diverse companii si acest lucru ar putea fi perfect adevarat, insa de acum va puteti bucura de un WhatsApp Messenger gratuit.
