Fri. October 30, 2009; Posted: 01:12 AM

Oct 30, 2009 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- PCS | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Flirtomatic, Inc., a social mobile service used by young adults, announced an agreement with MetroPCS Wireless, a subsidiary of MetroPCS Communications, a provider of wireless communications service, under which Flirtomatic has been selected as a mobile social networking service.

The service is accessible via the MetroPCS Mobile Web Portal.

With over 1.5 million registered users, Flirtomatic's service is available in the U.K., Germany and Australia. Flirtomatic's free service will now also be available to all MetroPCS customers to meet online. Flirtomatic is free to use and customers use it by purchasing FlirtPoints and spending them by promoting themselves, finding out who has rated them, and by sending virtual gifts (over 4 million were sent last year). Currently, Flirtomatic's mobile users log in around seven times and send over 30 messages each day, resulting in over 30 million messages each month and over 160m WAP page views.

"We're delighted to be working with MetroPCS as a partner in the United States," said Gary Cohen, Flirtomatic's VP and general manager of North America. "Flirtomatic has demonstrated in other countries that our model is very popular and we are eager to launch with a provider of unlimited, flat-rate, no-contract service. We have seen that as U.S. consumers get to know our service they adopt, use and spend Flirt Points even more than in other parts of the world."

Metro PCS users who primarily enjoy 3G service will be able to utilize the Flirtomatic WAP delivery platform across all their handsets.
