Here is the news release from Verizon: https://www.verizon.com/about/news/introducing-freebee-data-new-sponsored-data-service-verizon https://www.verizon.com/about/news/introducing-freebee-data-...
The summary:
* companies can pay VZW to zero-rate their data on two models
* per-click: users will see "FreeBee" icon next to content that is per-click sponsored, so that they know clicking through to the data won't count against their data cap.
* per-gig data: blanket zero-rated data
The bad news is, unlike T-Mobile, companies HAVE TO PAY Verizon if they want their data zero-rated. Because Verizon is in such a big market position, this basically means in order for your company to stay competitive among VZW customers, you have to cut Verizon a huge check.
If people were reserved about calling what Tmo did a NN-violation, I'd like to see what they say about Verizon.
