19 Juillet 2021 - 3:00PM
Over the past nine years, Anghami has built a vast network of telco
partnerships across the Middle East and North Africa, becoming the
leader in this field with 37 partnerships. With the aim of
strengthening and growing this network, Anghami announced the
launch of six new mobile partnerships and offers across the Kingdom
of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Morocco, Tunisia and
Algeria in the first half of 2021, bringing Anghami Plus to more
and more people, and further, strengthening the platform’s position
as the leading music streaming service in the region.
In a region where digital payments have been a
challenge, the company has focused on partnerships with telcos to
make payments easier. Choucri Khairallah, Anghami’s VP of Business
Development, commented, “We’re delighted to be teaming up with our
strategic partners across the region to enable more users to
discover Anghami Plus and enjoy the music and podcasts they love in
innovative propositions that offer the best experience and value.
Partnering with mobile operators has been a key focus for us since
our inception as they give us the opportunity to reach new
audiences, benefiting for the telco partner’s big marketing reach
as well as offering our users a convenient way to pay or to benefit
from access to Anghami Plus through bundles that are tailor-made
for each market.”
Anghami has joined forces with Virgin Mobile in
UAE and KSA to offer their customers a unique music experience. In
UAE, Virgin Mobile customers can benefit from unlimited downloads
with an Anghami Plus subscription on all plans worth AED 79 or
more. In KSA, when signing up to select Virgin Mobile Plans through
Virgin Mobile App, customers can get Anghami Plus for free for
three months, six months or longer.
Targeting the vibrant Saudi youth segment,
Anghami Plus will be offered for free with select Zain Shabab
postpaid plans.
In addition to Anghami Plus being bundled with
Orange Tunisia's “Bon plan GigaMusic” exclusively on the My Orange
App, Anghami, Orange and Xiaomi launched a major campaign starting
May 31, 2021 offering four months of Anghami Plus for free with any
purchase of the Redmi 9T smartphone packed with Orange’s Edawa5
bundle.
Building on a seven-year-long partnership
between Anghami and Maroc Telecom, Anghami has teamed to offer
three months of Anghami Plus for free to any new postpaid customer
choosing a plan of 99DH and above. The offer was communicated using
a major OOH campaign across different cities in Morocco, giving
users unlimited access to music this summer.
In the effort to bring Anghami Plus to more
users across the region, Anghami announced launching a new
partnership with Djezzy, the leading mobile operator in Algeria.
Djezzy’s customers will be able to enjoy a seamless listening
experience on Anghami and access to more than 57 million songs and
podcasts on the go on all their favorite devices.
Anghami recently announced it expects to become
a publicly traded company via a merger with Vistas Media
Acquisition Company Inc. (NASDAQ: VMAC), a special purpose
acquisition company. For more information about the transaction,
