Yutechon announced on the 2nd that it will introduce long-term discount plans in partnership with major budget mobile operators through its mobile phone rate comparison recommendation platform 'Semotong.' Yutechon is a B2C platform subsidiary of the Ucompanions Group.
'Semotong' has launched long-term rate plans with 24-month or lifetime discount benefits through partnerships with budget mobile operators.
The company explained that consumers can see actual expense reduction effects with the long-term discount rate plans. For the plan providing 5GB of data daily, the existing discount structure applies a monthly fee of 19,900 won for the first 7 months, but from the 8th month, the fee increases to 42,900 won, resulting in a total of 870,000 won in fees over 24 months.
In contrast, if opting for the long-term discount plans partnered with Semotong, the monthly fee will be fixed at 26,000 won for 24 months, requiring a total burden of only 620,000 won.
Yutechon noted, "In the current situation where soaring living costs are increasing the financial burden on households, the long-term discount rate plans presented by Semotong will be a meaningful alternative for consumers looking to achieve substantial reductions in communication expenses."
