This became possible due to WhatsApp cooperation with the German WhatsApp operator E-Plus. The main advantage of this SIM card is unlimited use of WhatsApp messenger. Even when there is no money in the user’s account, he can continue to use application. For all the other users the application WhatsApp is free only during first year of usage. For all other users of the application WhatsApp service is paid after the first year of use.
The SIM card costs only 10 euros. User can use this amount to calls, SMS messages or data download from the Internet. As WhatsApp is only starting to make first steps as a telephone operator, company offers customer bonuses. For spending 10 euros extra first users will receive 600 credits that can be spent according to their wishes. One SMS message as well as 1 MB of data is equal to one credit. Credit can be also used for making calls. According to the standard rate, the cost of sending an SMS message is 9 cents, as much as one minute of talk. For the use of the data the user will have to pay 24 cents per 1 MB. Each customer will receive 10 euros bonus after inviting two friends to buy WhatsApp SIM card.
