Any App developer can integrate with Airtel Happy Hours in four simple steps and give their users the option to automatically schedule downloads between 3.00 am and 5.00 am so their users get 50% data back on downloads. Developers do not have to pay Airtel for using this feature for their apps. A full API integration kit is available to developers on sign-up at www.airtel.in/happyhours.

The product was also showcased to developers at the Great Indian Developers Summit (GIDS) earlier this year and received positive feedback. YouTube and FastFilmz have integrated the product on their Apps and more partners are expected to follow.

Happy Hours feature can be accessed by customers by following a few simple steps. For example, on YouTube, an Airtel prepaid customer needs to choose the Smart Offline option on his/her favourite videos and select ‘Save overnight with Airtel Happy Hours’ to automatically save the video between 3.00 am and 5.00 am with 50% data back.

App developers benefit from Happy Hours through more in-app scheduled content downloads, while app users benefit as they can schedule their non-urgent and heavy downloads like videos, photo albums, music albums etc. without having to stay up and making 50% savings on data.
