All the best!

Whatsapp doesn't do sms. Users who receive hike signed smses might eventually move on to hike. So eventually more users will mean less costs for hike. That sounds like a viable business model.

The sms differentiator is good. All hike has to do is bear the costs of smses until most users are on hike and hope that the competition does not start offering the same service. Do you have any patents which can help you?

Spot on. Thanks.

We do have a pending patent application for the same.
