Namibia’s telecommunications operator MTC has announced the launch of its SmartShare promotion, aimed at boosting customers’ Internet and mobile packages for their phones.
According to the company, users will now have the opportunity to choose their own packages, including multiple packages and only be charged on one invoice.
“They may combine the Internet and up to three mobile devices. Customers should first select their Internet service or package from the three available options,” the company said.
