BOSTON, Sept. 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Viber, one of the world's fastest growing mobile communications platforms, connects fans to their favorite personalities, emerging influencers and brands through its exclusive Public Chats feature. Viber's platform offers consumers a unique way to engage in pop culture, get behind-the-scenes access, follow organic conversations, and grow deeper connections with some of the most notable names in entertainment, media, food, fashion, sports, music, health, art, photography and more.
"Viber is all about spreading good vibes around the world. Public Chats are a fantastic way for us to do just that. Cultural influencers are using our platform to engage with their fans every day, grow their brands, share their own content, and make connections," said Scott Nelson, Head of North America, Viber. "Social culture is central to everything we do. Our Viber users are part of ongoing, influential chats all day every day, whether that's through Public Chats or their own private group chat, we make sure they are always connected."
Here's what our friends are saying about Viber Public Chats:
- Karolina Kurkova: "Viber gives me a chance to include my friends and fans in my every day life. Last week, I took over the Viber World Public Chat and gave everyone a behind-the-scenes experience at New York Fashion Week. It's great to be able to share and communicate with my friends and fans from all over the world."
- Girl With No Job: "I've had a Twitter since I was probably 15. I've worked hard for my 12.5k followers. So hard. I've been on Viber a month and I (we) have 14.1k followers."
- The Infatuation: "Viber is pretty amazing. Really cool to be able to chat with the entire company spread out in NY, LA, SF, CHI, and DEN in one place at all times."
Oh yeah, Viber also has new Sticker Packs launching all the time. With more than 500 different varieties, Stickers offer users a fun way to add a layer of personality and context in chats. Last week, Miami-based "Good Vibes Director", YesJulz, shared her own custom Stickers which have since been used more than 2 million times, while her Public Chat followers grew by over 300,000 in just 72 hours post-launch.
Mobile is not the only place Viber is going big; this summer Viber partnered with Ibiza Rocks to host parties, events, and more throughout the season. Ibiza visitors used Viber to stay connected to friends and family back home for free, and got behind-the-scenes at the hottest live music events on the island with the Ibiza Rocks Public Chat. Viber will be announcing additional major partnerships and activations in the coming months.
