Line has launched a spinoff app known as Line@ which enables various brands to connect with their clients and customers. These brands will be able to send batch messages to their followers through Line’s messaging app and will be able to share posts on their home pages and timeline. Basically, just imagine a Facebook page on an instant messaging service.

Mobile messaging service Line has launched a new app to allow business and personal brands to connect with fans, clients and customers. It’s kind of like a branded Facebook page in an instant messaging format. Dubbed Line@, the app is available for free on iOS and Android and allows account holders to send batch messages to followers who are on Line’s messaging app, chat one-on-one with friended users, and share posts on their timeline and home pages. They’ll also get access to stats like daily added friends, block rates, and responses to Timeline posts.
