To make reading more accessible
to everyone across the Philippines, Beebly, the first mobile e-library and
e-bookstore for Fiipinos, is excited to announce a new partnership with Globe,
the Philippines' leading digital solutions platform and top telecommunications
company. The two companies are bringing exclusive discounts for all Globe
Rewards customers who love to read.
Without using any rewards points, all Globe customers with an active New GlobeOne account may avail of a discount of up to 40% on premium titles available for purchase inside the app.
Beebly began with a dream of
making learning more accessible to Filipinos. As the nation’s first digital library
and bookstore, it hopes to encourage learning in a convenient and easy-to-use
platform. Now, anyone with a smartphone can choose from a wide selection of
educational and creative materials and learn on the go.
Once subscribed to Beebly, users
will have immediate access to online study resources and popular eBooks, among
others. The digital membership also grants access to other creative content and
learning resources to develop various skills.
The platform is a game-changer,
encouraging both the young and more senior to learn together at home.
“Our company harnessed our
expertise in technology to create a platform where Filipinos, particularly
young students, can easily access both educational and recreational reading
materials. We have also developed a proprietary device that will soon allow
students to read, review, and study their lessons via Beebly even without wifi
or data,” shared Jackeline Chua, COO of Beebly.
“We hope through our app, we can
significantly contribute to students’ learning and overall, encourage more
young Filipinos to embrace the habit of reading,” added Jyotirmoy Saha, Beebly
CEO.
Globe Chief Commercial Officer
Issa Guevarra-Cabreira cited how Globe’s partnership with Beebly helps the
company move forward in its goal of enabling inclusive education in the
Philippines.
“We at Globe constantly think of
ways to innovate to help improve the quality of education in the Philippines.
We are proud to partner with Beebly in this initiative to provide a digital
resource that makes books and other reading materials accessible to Filipino
learners right in the palm of their hands, backed by reliable connectivity
through our #1stWorldNetwork,” she said.
To date, Beebly has over 6,000
educational and recreational reading materials and has partnered with big
