LG Uplus is launching a life-oriented partnership plan in collaboration with Toss Mobile. The service has gained popularity among young consumers, over half of whom are in their 20s and 30s who seek efficient spending habits.
On the 17th, Toss Mobile announced that it launched five budget phone plans combining the facial recognition payment service 'FacePay' benefits on the 3rd. Toss Mobile is a budget carrier operator utilizing LG Uplus networks. This expansion follows its previous launch of the 'Toss X CU' plan, which offered discounts at CU convenience stores via Aldot.
Among subscribers to the 'FacePay partnership plans,' 56% are in their 20s and 30s. Young users familiar with mobile financial and payment services are also showing interest in life-oriented budget phone products. FacePay allows users to make payments using only their face at stores after pre-registering their face and payment method, without needing a wallet or smartphone.
The 'FacePay partnership plans' consist of five variants based on data usage: △7GB+, △10GB+, △71GB+, △100 minutes + 15GB+, and △100GB+. After signing up, users can access these plans for monthly fees ranging from 8,000 won to 16,000 won over seven months. Subscribers will receive FacePay coupons worth 2,000 won each month starting two months after activation, continuing for up to 24 months. Additionally, four months after activation, users will receive an extra coupon worth 10,000 won, enabling them to enjoy payment benefits totaling up to 58,000 won.
Aldot also sells Toss Mobile's 'Toss X CU' plan. Subscribers who sign up by the end of this month can receive discounts of up to 20% on product purchases at CU offline stores, with a maximum monthly discount of 5,000 won. Users will also earn points totaling up to 5%, including CU membership benefits. CU partnership benefits are available for up to 24 months after signing up.
Aldot is an integrated platform that allows users to compare and subscribe to various budget phone plans and benefits from operators using LG Uplus networks. Beyond simple comparisons of data volume and pricing, it also provides information on unique partnership products and promotions offered by each budget carrier operator.
Park Dae-yong, Head of MVNO Business at LG Uplus, stated, "There is a growing demand for differentiated services that enhance user experiences even in the budget phone market." He added, "LG Uplus plans to continue collaborating with various partners to introduce life-oriented products and benefits."
