Telcos worldwide are losing SMS revenues to social messaging services on smartphones, and industry watchers advise mobile operators should offer innovative messaging services, align revenue schemes and collaborate with their rivals.

That said, other Chinese telcos are taking steps to guard against over the top (over the top) messaging applications.

China Mobile commenced efforts to merge its two mobile messaging services Fei Liao and Feition in July, and ask them to download the latter instead due to its larger user base of around 90 million. Last month, China Unicom also collaborated with Tencent to launch a SIM card called Weixin Woka, which has an independent data package for WeChat and all of its services.
