GetJar one of the the world’s largest app store, just announced its partnership with DiGi Telecommunications (“DiGi”), an important Malaysian mobile communications company, that sees to provide its customers with immediate access to GetJar’s entire library of 70,000+ free mobile applications

DiGi customers will be able to take advantage of this offer by gaining immediate access to GetJar’s massive library of applications via a GetJar branded apps store link.

"It’s important for us at DiGi to deliver excellent customer experience at every touch point, and this includes offering rich and relevant applications that suit their varied lifestyle,” said Albern Murty, DiGi’s Head of Marketing.

“We partnered with GetJar because of their vast experience in offering an ’open’ application catalog that is supported by any device and platform, making it easy for our customers to use and enjoy,” continued Murty.

Subscribers of the Malaysian carrier will have access to thousands of applications ranging from games, social networking, sports, entertainment and productivity applications.

They will be able to easily download popular apps such as Facebook Mobile, Yahoo!, Opera Mini, and Nimbuzz. The apps are compatible with all major platforms, including smartphones and non-smartphones.

“The demand for apps continues to soar and many operators and other third parties are eager to introduce an app store, without needing to manage the sourcing and moderating of thousands of individual apps,” said Ilja Laurs, founder and CEO of GetJar.

“App Catalogue Express is designed to make it quick and easy for carriers, aggregators and partners to seamlessly launch a pre-populated app store across all major platforms and devices,” continued Laurs.

The Malaysian network operator adds to large portfolio of leading companies that are already using GetJar’s flexible, open app store business including Sprint, LG, Sony Ericsson, 3UK, The Carphone Warehouse and Virgin Mobile France. GetJar offers both branded and white label solutions.
