Download E-Books and E-Magazines from Buqo App with SMART

I haven't been able to regularly buy magazines for the past few years, mainly because I now spend more time in front of the computer. Thus, I get to read informative and entertaining materials off the internet, and also from my tablet and mobile phone. Good news for people like me, Smart Communications recently tied-up with Summit Media to offer subscribers easier access to e-books and e-magazines with Buqo app and pay with Smart!

I was actually excited to get the Buqo app immediately since I can now get copies of some of the Summit mags I used to buy, like Yes!, Preview, Yummy, and Good Housekeeping.  I simply charge it to my Smart postpaid account on an android phone.  It's that easy!  Have I convinced you yet?

First, what is Buqo?

Buqo is a mobile bookstore, newsstand, and reader app all rolled into one.
It's currently available for both Android and iOS users.

Sample screen shot - browse, choose, buy, pay with Smart

What I like about the Smart-Summit-Buqo collab:

• Quick and easy download of e-books or e-magazines via Buqo app
• Browse, choose a publication, add to cart, check
• Any Smart subscriber (currently for Android units) can easily download and buy Summit publications:
• Pay using Smart Prepaid load or charge to your Smart Postpaid bill - this is the best part, 'coz it's so convenient!
• No need for a credit card
• With Buqo, no need to lug around heavy books and magazines when on the road or traveling
• Read books and mags anytime, anywhere -- from a smartphone or tablet
• Access to top Summit Media publications, like: Yes! Magazine, Preview, Candy Magazine, Esquire Philippines, and more

Enjoying Deezer Music Streaming with Smart

I've always been a music lover and I enjoy listening to the radio or CD since my schooldays. Okay...I think I dated myself by telling you that, hahahaha! I'll redeem myself by saying that I'm still very much up to date with chart-topping songs in different genres. It's the digital age and truth be told, I have not caught on to using video or music streaming yet. That all changed when I learned about Deezer. It's the premium music streaming service from France and they partnered with wireless services leader Smart, launched last July 9 with a big party, which I obviously missed.

http://smart.com.ph/Deezer

If not for Smart and Deezer, I wouldn't have discovered new tracks, and wouldn't known the titles of the latest songs that my kids and I are humming to! Good riddance, "Let It Go"!

“We are very happy to secure this partnership with Deezer,” said Kathy Carag, Smart Postpaid Marketing Head. “We have brought you SPINNR and now Deezer to beef up our music portfolio. We know that music is life for many Filipinos and now Smart is making it possible for Filipino music lovers to enjoy what they want to hear with the clarity and features they truly deserve.”

What's amazing about Deezer:

• Contains more than 30 million songs in its library
• Deezer App is available in over 180 countries worldwide
• Man and machine recommendations - 50 music editors around the world + smart algorithms personalize the recommendations to enjoy and discover more music
• Music discovery features like Flow, Hear This, Explore
• Spotlight on local artists
• Smart-caching on mobile - can play on Offline Mode

I am currently building my Playlist as I add more songs to my Favorite Tracks. 

Deezer offers are initially available for Smart Postpaid subscribers through Unlisurf Premium Plans starting at just PhP1,175  a month, bundled with the latest smartphones and unlimited LTE surfing. As an exclusive perk to early subscribers, Smart will give Unlisurf Premium Plans a P175 bill rebate for six months.

Existing Postpaid subscribers can avail of Deezer Flexibundles with a free Deezer Premium+subscription:

• Deezer Daily = Php25 (1-day Deezer access + 25 SMS and 10MB of mobile data for Deezer streaming)
• Deezer Weekly = Php125 (7-day Deezer access + 125 SMS and 50MB of mobile data for Deezer streaming)
• Deezer Monthly = P250 (30-day Deezer access + 250 SMS and 100MB of mobile data for Deezer streaming)

Offers for Smart Prepaid subscribers will be announced soon. For more information on Smart’s Deezer offers, visit smart.com.ph/Deezer.  Try Deezer now!

Keeping My Family Close with Smart Family Ties Plan

This year, when the kids will be both in elementary school, I am expecting a more demanding schedule. Having open communication is essential with each member of the family.  For the past years, J and I never thought of giving a mobile phone for the boy, more so for the girl who just turned 7. The boy's needs, however, is now changing and there were many instances when he had to borrow the school phone to get in touch with me while I'm on the road.  I take this as a sign that we need to teach and trust him to manage his own mobile phone and get a family line for us.
