Optus is doubling the data on some of its best 5G plans

As Optus continues to roll out its 5G network across the country, the telco is hoping to tempt new customers to its 5G-ready phones by doubling your data on selected plans.

Android users, you’re in luck – this offer is currently available across Samsung's 5G range of smartphones, and the deal is for the two bigger plans (Large and Extra Large), so the data doubling will make more of an impact.

When you buy a selected handset, you’ll score double the data for your first 12 months free of charge – that’s a total of 200GB on the Large plan or an unprecedented 240GB on the Extra Large plan.

If you want to keep getting the additional data after the 12-month period ends, you can opt to stay in for just AU$10 each month.

Below, we’ve selected three eligible plans to suit a range of budgets.

Is the window closing on augmented reality?  Although it’s just one company, Magic...

Airship acquires SMS commerce company ReplyBuy

Airship is announcing that it has acquired mobile commerce startup ReplyBuy . The startup (which was a finalist at TechCrunch’s 1st and Future competition in 2016) works with customers like entertainment venues and professional and college sports teams to send messages and sell tickets to fans via SMS. It raised $4 million in funding from Sand Hill Angels, Kosinski Ventures, SEAG Ventures, Enspire Capital, MRTNZ Ventures and others, according to Crunchbase . Airship, meanwhile, has been expanding its platform beyond push notifications to cover customer communication across SMS, email, mobile wallets and more.

While sports and concerts tickets might not be a booming market right now, Caine suggested that the company is actually seeing increased purchasing activity “in and around the Airship platform” as businesses try to drive more in-app purchases. He also suggested that both the COVID-19 pandem...
