Forges Strategic Partnership with Netccentric to Expand Reach in Asia
Sydney, June 27, 2016 AEST (ABN Newswire) - Flexiroam Limited (
ASX:FRX) continues its concerted push into the lucrative Asian travel market by forming a partnership with Asia Pacific's leading digital media, marketing and technology business, Netccentric Limited (ASX:NCL).
The partnership entails a collaboration with Netccentric subsidiary, AroiMakMak.com to drive awareness and distribute Flexiroam's newly launched data roaming solution, Flexiroam X.
AroiMakMak.com is an essential travel and lifestyle resource for international travellers seeking to discover the best places to visit for food, shopping and entertainment in Bangkok. In 2015, the website received 1.2 million visitors and currently averages over 500,000 views monthly of high quality traffic, amongst travellers with a high propensity to spend when abroad.
AroiMakMak.com also has a rapidly expanding foothold to South Korea and Japan, two major travel hubs in Asia.
"Our partnership with Flexiroam sees us working together to prepare inbound travelers with the best possible experience when they arrive in Thailand, Tokyo or Seoul. Combining our local travel expertise with free roaming data from Flexiroam X allows us to cement our offering as the best one-stop guide to Bangkok, Seoul, and Tokyo to drive readership" says Cheo Ming Shen, CEO of Netccentric Limited.
Flexiroam's partnership with AroiMakMak.com will initially entail 25,000GB of Flexiroam X free roaming data promotional codes being given out to travellers via the website and their social media channels.
Flexiroam will leverage this partnership to lower the cost of customer acquisition and increase brand awareness within the Thailand tourism market, which saw 29,881,091 inbound tourists in 2015.
"We're extremely excited to work with Netccentric to position Flexiroam X in front of millions of international travellers. We foresee a tremendous amount of synergy with AroiMakMak.com's core audience, who will be hungry for Flexiroam X's capability to deliver affordable roaming data to stay connected online to document their travels on social media" says Flexiroam CEO Jef Ong.
Thailand represents a significant market opportunity for Flexiroam as one of Asia's leading tourist hubs. Leveraging AroiMakMak.com's authority will allow Flexiroam to establish a strong presence in Asia and is the first of many promotions to emerge out of this partnership.
This is a significant market opportunity where, by leveraging on the website's popularity, the Company hopes to create a strong presence in Thailand and to increase the number of "X" subscribers across the region. This partnership includes opportunities for the Company to share future promotions through the website.
