On July 30, LG Uplus announced that it will expand customer benefits during the summer vacation season and the peak consumption period by enhancing its offerings in roaming, membership programs, local tourism initiatives, and support for young customers.


First, roaming benefits will be strengthened to meet rising demand for overseas travel. Through the AI call agent service 'ixi-O' and its iXio Roaming Call feature, the company will provide free international voice calls. Customers using iXio can make domestic and international voice calls via Wi-Fi while abroad without incurring additional call charges, even if they have not subscribed to a roaming plan.


For families traveling overseas, when the Roaming Pass Sharing plan is activated, an extra 3GB of data will be offered to the main account holder. The company will also expand roaming support for tablets for customers visiting foreign countries.


Benefits for young customers will also be enhanced. LG Uplus will offer the Uth membership benefits, up to 2GB of data roaming support, and other youth-oriented perks. In addition, five local benefit programs tailored for young travelers will be provided in Japan to meet the unique demand for overseas trips and content consumption among younger customers.


The company will also host the Uth AI Shorts Festival, offering prizes worth a total of 100 million won. The first-place winner will receive the Vice Minister of Science and ICT Award and the opportunity for an AI training program in Los Angeles, USA. LG Uplus plans to continuously expand cultural and experiential programs that encourage participation by young customers.


Starting in August, the U+ Membership Program 'U+ Two Plus' will offer a total of 52 benefits, including dining, food and beverages, shopping, culture, and leisure experiences. Membership discounts will be complemented by expanded experiential benefits linked to local festivals and tourism programs.


In the second half of this year, differentiated benefits for long-term customers with 10 or more years of membership and VVIP members will increase. In August, the company will host an exclusive event for the musical 'Dear Evan Hansen,' inviting a total of 1,100 customers.



An LG Uplus representative stated, "We have expanded benefits that customers can truly experience in their daily lives during the summer vacation and peak consumption periods. Going forward, we will continue to broaden the range of customer benefits by reflecting user habits and lifestyle patterns."
