It was added, “It contains the service orientation of proposing subscription products that fit each customer's lifestyle so that all customers can have their own 'subscription universe.”
SK Telecom shared that it has created the subscription products on T Universe in collaboration with global operators, startups, and major local brands. Customers who will subscribe will find products that are not just available in package offerings, but they can also opt for individual units.
Currently, some of T Universe’s partners include Amazon Global Store, Starbucks, Paris Baguette, and the local convenience store chain E-mart. SK Telecom will continue to add useful subscription products and services to fit with the lifestyles of the subscribers.
Finally, in the coming days or months, customers who will register on T Universe will also get to enjoy digital services like Xbox Game Pass and Google One.
