3 Hong Kong has extended the point of sale of one of its SIM cards to Watsons and launched an app to help customers manage their accounts.
The mobile arm of Hutchison Telecommunications Hong Kong Holdings (HTHKH) is now offering SoSIM prepaid cards at Watsons Hong Kong’s online and offline stores, allowing customers to buy and recharge their SIM cards at over 400 Watsons and PARKnSHOP locations throughout the city. Additionally, customers will be offered a cash coupon when buying SoSIM prepaid cards at all Watsons online and offline stores until 13 May.
To further engage customers, those who are also Moneyback users can get extra benefits of a 45-minute Watsons’ online make-up class hosted by a Watsons makeup artist, or a 20-minute one-on-one online consultation service by a Watsons’ dietitian upon purchase of a SoSIM card at Watsons online or offline stores.
"We are delighted to partner with 3 Hong Kong to excel the market with our strengths, particularly our extensive store network with flexible and convenient online and offline (O+O) shopping experience. Customer-obsession is Watsons Hong Kong’s top priority, and we are always introducing innovative and seamless O+O shopping experience to customers," commented Samuel Lee, managing director of Watsons Hong Kong.
3 Hong Kong has also launched the new SoSIM mobile app. Customers can download it after purchasing SIM cards at Watsons or PARKnSHOP stores to manage their SoSIM accounts on their handsets. The app can be used for checking data usage, voice usage and balance, buying service plans and value added services. Customers can also use the SoSIM app to recharge and pay by a credit card. The recharging service is also available at over 400 Watsons and PARKnSHOP stores throughout Hong Kong.
“Our SoSIM launch with PARKnSHOP has met with an overwhelming response. By leveraging the extensive sales network of our two partners, we can further open up business opportunities of the prepaid market," said HTHKH executive director and CEO Kenny Koo.
