Mobile app developer TexTango releases new version of free BlackBerry and Android app that pays users for sending text messages which include a small advertisement

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- TexTango, a mobile advertising network that compensates its members for sending SMS text messages, announced today the official release of their "Beta" texting application available for free download on BlackBerry and Android devices.

"We are very excited to release the Beta version of TexTango," said Kris Golshan, VP of Business Development for TexTango. "Based on what we have learned from our successful alpha release, we are finally able to compensate our members for doing what they do every day- texting their friends."

“Brands can now reach their target audience in the most creative, viral and personalized fashion in order to create loyalty,” Golshan added. “Celebrities get paid to endorse brands every day, so why not the average person?”

Each time a member sends a text, an un-intrusive, yet catchy banner message from the sponsoring brand is automatically attached. For every text sent to friends and family, the sponsor compensates them for reaching their target audience. It’s a true win-win situation.
