We have just implemented this feature which we think may be useful for some people out there.  It basically allows you to automatically follow back the person who follows you (without you having to text ON something to our short number).

To switch on this feature for your account, login to www.pacmee.com and go to ‘Settings‘. Then, click on ‘Notification’ and check the box for this feature.

To register new channels under the same mobile number, login to http://premium.pacmee.com and click on ‘Apply new channel‘.

Choose your channelname, complete the profile details and upload your avatar. As a reminder, the channelname must be in one single word and less than 13 characters. It can only support alphabet, number or eiphen.  

Once you submit your registration, your channel will be automatically created.

Isn’t this great? Now you can own and manage more channels without the hassle of having to buy new mobile SIM cards :-)

Premium Channel/Community owners can now decide how much they like to charge for their MMS photo, audio or video downloaded by their channel subscribers/followers. The MMS price ranges from RM0.30 to RM5.00. And the best part? They still earn 50% of the MMS download price!

If they wish to, they can also tag an MMS download keyword for the MMS photo, audio or video which they broadcast.  What is the use of the MMS download keyword? Well, it serves many purposes:

Say, your channelname is ‘JACK’ and you broadcasted a video today. Anyone who joins your channel later (after the video has been broadcasted) will not be able to receive this MMS video. If you tag it with a keyword ‘HOT’, then they can still download this MMS video onto their mobile phone by sending D JACK HOT to 22700 (Maxis) or 36400 (DiGi). 

With this MMS keyword tagging, you are also free to run advertising and promotions for your MMS content broadcasts. As an example, you can advertise the following steps on your website, newspapers, magazines, radio or television:

To download this HOT MMS video:

Step 1: Type D JACK HOT

Step 2: Send SMS to 22700 (Maxis) or 36400 (DiGi)

If you have another video broadcast tagged with the MMS keyword ‘POPULAR’, then the instruction would be send D JACK POPULAR to 22700 (Maxis) or 36400 (DiGi)

As you know, you are allowed to create up to five groups in your channel. Once created, you can assign your followers into any of these groups. You can then broadcast messages specifically to these groups.  Only the followers of these groups will receive the messages you broadcast.  

New group interfaces:
