    Keeping up with the growing demand for a better and richer mobile experience with the use of smartphones, Globe Telecom unveiled its own suite of apps that will address the needs of mobile phone users.

The Globe Mobile Apps are GSERVICES, GCASH, GMOVIES and GMESSAGE, all designed to suit the interests and lifestyle of today’s smartphone owners, which include account management and personalized services, financial services, movies, and instant messaging.

GSERVICES is the complete account management app available for free for Globe subscribers. With GSERVICES, subscribers can check their prepaid load or outstanding postpaid balance, register to promos, share load to family and friends, check reward points, and redeem rewards and view postpaid bills and have them sent to their home or email address.

The GCASH app empowers subscribers to buy prepaid load anytime and anywhere with a 10% rebate, pay bills, send money to family and friends via their mobile, Facebook or e-mail accounts, and send donations without having to memorize keywords or access numbers. On top of the full color user-friendly interface, the GCASH app gives subscribers access to their contact list and even Facebook friends without having to switch applications.

GMOVIES is a one-stop mobile application for checking movie schedules and reviews, booking and reserving seats, buying movie tickets initially available in Ayala Cinemas, and soon in SM Cinemas. The first of its kind in the Philippines, the GMOVIES app provides user the convenience of e-movie tickets by letting them view movie schedules, choose seats, and pay for ticket purchases minus the hassle of long queues in theaters, especially during preview of blockbuster movies.

Finally, GMESSAGE is a mobile messaging application that enables user to send and receive free and unlimited messages with other GMESSAGE users anywhere in the world. The app also allows users to send and receive messages with non-GMESSAGE users for only P0.15 per message. With the GMESSAGE app, users can also share photos, videos and audio files. The app also incorporates an innovative technology called “Magic Words” which can detect the context of a sentence and provide a link to what the user is talking about. Globe is the first operator in Asia to launch GMESSAGE, a new tool perfect for Filipinos who have led the world in text messaging over the last few years.
