To mark Myanmar’s traditional Thingyan New Year festival this April, Rakuten Viber and Onepay have teamed up to offer a range of exciting special benefits through the Thingyan Giveaways Bot inside the Viber app. Designed with a festive Thingyan theme, the bot lets users try their luck at giveaway raffles, special discounts, and a host of other perks.
With Onepay, one of Myanmar’s leading payment apps, joining the partnership, users can win discount coupons of up to 30% — worth more than 400,000 kyats in total — for Onepay’s most popular features through the Thingyan Giveaways Bot. These include OneCodes (purchasing redeemable codes for digital content), Scan&Pay (making payments at more than 7,800 Onepay merchants), OneShop (doorstep-delivered payment for a wide range of goods, including everyday consumer products), and OneTravel (booking domestic bus and flight tickets).
On top of that, users of the Onepay bot can also pick up exclusive Viber stickers, and stand a chance to win OPPO smartphones through a weekly special lucky draw.
“We’re genuinely excited to be able to celebrate Myanmar’s traditional Thingyan festival with such an innovative program. During this special time, Viber is bringing our users plenty of excitement and joy,” said David Tse, Senior Director for APAC at Rakuten Viber.
“We couldn’t be more excited to bring a special program to mark our long-standing partnership with Viber. Onepay currently offers our users services through the Viber Chat Bot and Chat Ex, and we’re all set to bring exciting benefits for Myanmar’s traditional Thingyan festival as well. We believe users will be just as excited to take part in this program,” said Sagar Bhagaddia, Deputy Chief Executive Officer of Onepay.
Through this partnership, Viber aims to give its users the best possible experience while also showcasing Myanmar’s unique traditional culture. Creating stickers through the Viber Bot that capture the spirit of Myanmar’s traditional New Year Thingyan festival is another way Viber demonstrates its commitment to connecting and sharing diverse traditional cultures more broadly among users around the world.
Viber users can subscribe for free to Onepay’s Thingyan Giveaways Bot to take part in a wide range of special programs running until April 30, 2024.
