Messaging app Hike has launched a useful feature called Rewards. It provides talktime in return for inviting your friends on Hike. Hike is available on all major platforms – iOS, Android, Windows Phone, Symbian and Blackberry.
Do not worry, this is not one of those “Visit this link for free talktime” scams you often find on Facebook. However, this Rewards feature is rather complicated to implement across all networks, and there might be technical issues. One of my friends was unable to redeem the talktime reward, while another got the talktime but the app was stuck at the redeem page.
Hike also has a free Hike-to-messages feature, where you can message your friends without Hike, and it will be delivered as messages. When the user replies to that message, it lands in your Hike app. Until Rewards launched, Hike provided 50 extra SMS a month for each new invited user (everyone starts with 100 SMS a month).
