AwesomeNet315 is also on the case, although they've not posted a link in the https://forum.lowyat.net/PokemonGO thread

Just wish they'd made it much more informative for readers with the likes of

"Freeway by Syntonic" offer's you 500MB+ of free data in Malaysia as a starter pack.

The User selects enough download apps of there choice from the available list to make up at least 500MB of Sponsored Data rewards.

Depending on which Telecom carrier the user uses, they will then either be credited with a wallet cash amount that purchases those 500MB+ of data for them, or a direct 500MB+ data credit on there account.

The user can then see that there "Freeway by Syntonic" sponsored data account is activated & up & running. As well as seeing that there Telecom carrier has given them the 500MB+ of free data that they have just earned.

That 500MB+ of data can then be used at the users own discretion (including on Pokemon Go).

Going forward (slowly at first since Malaysia is the first country chosen to get this product through multiple Telecom carriers) other Sponsored Data Rewards will be on offer for "Freeway by Syntonic" users.

It might start with just a few new Rewards being available each week, but as businesses see the benefits of Sponsored Data to them it should grow into a considerable number of weekly Rewards being available.

These Rewards will come in either the form of data to use at the users own discretion, or data that is specific to only one app or client and can only be used while accessing it. You'll most likely be able to earn Rewards multiple times from the same app or client over say a 6 month period.

Some of the clients (depending on which business segment there in) may constantly pay all you're data charges, while you're using there app (even aboard) !! Travel company Expedia is an example of this type of data sponsorship.

"Freeway by Syntonic's" is all about "Sponsored Data" in South East Asia its not a one off promotion, Syntonic are in this for the long haul

So pass on the good news to your friends & family as well so that they too can benefit from the 500MB+ of Free Sponsored Data from "Freeway by Syntonic"
