WhatsApp, the developer company of WhatsApp Messenger recently became a mobile operator in Germany, a few months after announcing the entry into this segment of the market. WhatsApp became a virtual operator in the network of E-plus and we are only talking about a service that offers the possibility of purchasing prepaid cards. The offer from WhatsApp allows future customers to use these prepaid cards with a credit of €10, which allows them to surf the Internet freely based on the credits offered when the card is activated, the data traffic made in the application WhatsApp Messenger not being charged.
The rest of the offer from WhatsApp it is not much better compared to everything that exists in Germany, but the important announcement has nothing to do with its offers. WhatsApp's entry into the market of mobile operators represents an extremely important move for the company now owned by Facebook, the Americans taking the first step towards becoming a mobile operator thanks to its subsidiary. Using this virtual network, those from WhatsApp will be able to test the market, they will be able to increase the number of users WhatsApp Messenger, and in the future it could also expand to other countries.
