“Allphones was really a dark horse when we came in the first quarter of 2013. We were the newest mobile phone retail store brand in the country and so many other stores inside the biggest malls were already well-established. Still, we were counting on the consumers themselves to realize that we were offering something different, something new in terms of customer retail experience,” said Allan Catli, Head of Brand Marketing of Allphones Philippines.

What Allphones offers in all its 50 stores is a leveled-up mobile phone retail experience that is ultra-convenient, affordable, futuristic, and high-tech. Best of all, Allphones customers enjoy high value-for-money, affordable, and features-packed deals courtesy of the partnership between Allphones and Globe Telecom.

Allphones’ exclusive postpaid deals make owning a postpaid account more convenient and affordable. The advantages customers get from such deals include unlimited texting, unlimited voice calls to Globe mobile and landline numbers, and unlimited Internet surfing. The packaged features and services are also tailor-fit to a customer’s needs and lifestyle, thanks to Globe’s customizable plans.

Customers have also remarked on Allphones stores’ sleek, clean, efficiently designed interiors that make choosing a mobile phone easier. They can also do hands-on sampling of various live mobile phone units being offered, providing a better feel for which mobile phone suits their needs. 

Customers are also impressed by the high-tech and futuristic experience of processing postpaid applications at an Allphones store. Allphones is the first mobile phone retailer in the Philippines to offer digital, paperless transactions. A postpaid applicant no longer bothers with forms and photo-copies of documentary requirements; instead, he or she processes the application on an iPad. A military grade security system ensures the safety and privacy of the customer data. 

According to Catli, this leveled–up customer retail experience offered by Allphones will be brought to the hottest summer destinations in the country starting April, when the Allphones Summer Fun for All Caravan kicks off in Cebu. The caravan will hold events in Cebu; Davao; Puerto Princesa ; Cagayan de Oro ; Lucena; and Subic.

“We use our mobile phones to communicate to each other while traveling to a summer destination; we also use them to share images, words, thoughts, and feelings through social media. Sharing these happy moments, feelings, and images to family and friends while on vacation has become essential to our summer holiday. Through the Allphones Summer Fun for All Caravan, we will help vacationers get easier access to mobile phone services that will make summer even more enjoyable for them,” explained by Catli. 

Allphones Philippines was created through a partnership between Allphones Australia, TAO Corporation and Globe Telecom.

Allphones Australia began as a single store in Mile End, South Australia in 1989. It eventually expanded to 200 stores nationally and has become the largest independent telecommunications retailer in Australia.

The Allphones Philippines held a big celebration with the opening of the 50th store of Allphones located at the Robinsons Galleria in Ortigas, last Thursday, April 3, 2014.

"The celebration at the 50th store expres gratitude to Allphones customers,” said Maureen Gallant, Marketing Head of Allphones Philippines.

This is a milestone for both the company and the mobile phone retail sector in general. The speed of expansion and the broad reach that the company has achieved is something rare, considering that we are a new entrant in the market.

Filipino mobile phone users deserve a better experience when it comes to buying mobile phones and accessories. Consumers know this and that’s the likely reason why Allphones Philippines, the newest telecoms retail chain in the country, was able to expand to as many as 50 stores across the nation in just a few months. The enthusiastic support of consumers for Allphones stores has allowed the retail chain to achieve quick expansion and growth. It’s all about providing customers a leveled-up mobile phone retail experience in all of the 50 Allphones stores. 

But what makes Allphones such a hit among Filipino consumers?

There are three obvious ones: 

1) Fun and convenience; 

2) Unmatched mobile phone and SIM deals; and

 3) High-tech, futuristic in-store transactions. 

The fun and convenience start the moment a customer walks into an Allphones store. The white space, the sleek, clean lines, the efficient store design—all of these make shopping for a smartphone or accessory very easy on the eyes and on one’s feet as one can walk efficiently through the space. The mobile phones on display are in full-view, and live units are available for customers to sample and play with. 

This hands-on experience is not only fun—because a customer can actually try out a mobile phone’s features—but also very practical; after all, you can only really know if a gadget is right for you if you try it out for yourself. 

Allphones stores also carry the widest range of mobile phone models and brands; there are also accessories and other gadgets. The customer can browse and inquire about all these while being assisted by an Allphones store staffer who is friendly and knowledgeable about the products in stock. Overall, choosing a mobile phone at the store is an exciting and convenient process. 

Allphones stores also offer the sweetest, most value-for-money deals on its mobile phone kits, and postpaid plan accounts. You can get the latest, most advanced mobile phones at huge discounts or even for free depending on the postpaid plan that you choose. These postpaid plans are not only packed with features and services but also very affordable. Features include unlimited voice calls to Globe postpaid and TM mobile numbers, unlimited texting and unlimited mobile Internet depending on what combination of services you wish to get. 

When applying for a postpaid account, you will experience for yourself the high-tech, futuristic process used at all Allphones stores. Instead of asking you to fill out forms or submit photocopies of your documentary requirements, the postpaid transaction at an Allphones store only requires you to enter the relevant customer information on an iPad, and the store personnel will make on the spot digital copy of you requirements. You’re assured that your information is kept private and safe because it’s protected by a military grade security system.

During the April 3rd celebration, event guests and customers experienced the retail experience at the Allphones store in Robinsons Galleria and have the chance to win premium items. They also avail of the best, exclusive deals that the store offers. 

But that’s not all, after the launch, Allphones brings the fun to the hottest summer destinations in the country through its Allphones Fun for All Caravan. Special Allphones events and promos will be held in these areas so that more people, especially those on their summer holiday, can enjoy their vacation even more. 

“Bringing along a mobilie phone or smartphone on holiday is already a must for us Filipinos. These gadgets allow us to communicate and coordinate with companions during our travel. They let us take photos, express our thoughts, feelings, and impressions, and share these with family and friends and even to our social network. It’s all part of making our holidays happier and more meaningful. The Allphones caravan will help make all these possible by making the latest mobile phones and the most affordable, features-rich deals available to holiday-makers,” said Gallant.

The Allphones All for Fun Caravan kicks off in Cebu on April 25 and will proceed to Davao; Puerto Princessa; Subic; Lucena; and Cagayan de Oro.
