根據 TechCruch最新報導:Messaging Service WhatsApp To Extend Subscription Model To iOS This Year, But Don’t Hold Your Breath For A Desktop App,將開始比照 Android版採用逐年收費制!不過如果之前有購買過 WhatsApp的話,那麼將不會受到任何影響!
The new subscription model would apply to new users, Koum said, and would likely follow the same pricing structure as its other apps, which are free for the first year and then cost $1/year, compared to the single, for-life $0.99 purchase that users make on iOS today. “We’re relaxed on dates, but definitely this year. It’s on the road map,” Koum said.
目前 WhatsApp iOS版還是採一次性收費,但是之後則會將統一收費模式,第一年免費,之後則一年收取 0.99 塊美金。
其實歐美最常使用的手機通訊軟體莫過於 WhatsApp,但是在亞洲卻不是那麼受到歡迎,不過如果你常與歐美客戶聯繫的話,這確實是一個很好的溝通管道!
