"Giving Away Pet Supplies" KT Hosts 'Petbook' Event

[Asia Economy Reporter Koo Chae-eun] KT will hold a ‘Petbook’ event from the 7th, giving pet supplies to subscribers of the ‘Photobook’ service.

The photobook service offered to KT membership customers is a subscription service where, by paying a monthly fee of 5,000 KRW, customers can receive one photo album they create each month. The first month is free (deducting 1,000 membership points). From the second month, it can be used at a 10% discounted rate of 4,500 KRW (deducting 500 membership points).

Since July, KT has partnered with Snaps, the number one photobook company in Korea, to provide the photobook service. It offers an artificial intelligence (AI) editing feature that makes creation easy. Up to four digital photobooks can be shared via Olleh TV, receiving great responses from customers who want to preserve memories of their child’s growth or moments with their partner.

KT is running a series of events themed around the most commonly created photobooks by customers: family, pets, and couples, titled ‘Hyo-do Book’, ‘Petbook’, and ‘Couple Book’. Following the ‘Hyo-do Book’ event held during the Chuseok holiday, KT planned the Petbook event reflecting the recent trend of increasing pet ownership among families.

The Petbook event runs from the 7th to the 18th, offering pet nutritional supplements through applications and a lottery. Applications can be made via the KT Membership app or the KT.com website. The event gives away Cargill Agripurina’s pet nutritional supplement One Day Care Impact Treat. Ten first-place winners will receive four types of supplements, and 300 second-place winners will receive one type of supplement randomly. Additionally, the first 500 new photobook service subscribers will receive one type of Cargill Agripurina’s One Day Care dental chew.

Lee Sung-hwan, Executive Director of KT’s 5G/GiGA Business Division, said, “Photobooks have become an essential item for capturing precious memories with family, partners, and pets,” adding, “We will continue to provide customers with various services and benefits utilizing membership.”
