With the help of eMail Our Military (eMOM), a charitable military support organization, Tatango has created an interface exclusively for military personnel, which easily allows any service member deployed overseas to instantly update all their loved ones back home through text messaging.

Tatango’s Military interface is cost-free, custom designed and does not require a mobile phone. Military service members can create a free Tatango account with a valid military email address.

“We’re extremely excited about this partnership, as it allows us to do our part in supporting the troops who have been deployed overseas,” says Derek Johnson, CEO of Tatango. “By working closely with Trish and her team at eMail Our Military, we were able to modify our current website to accommodate the needs of military service members without access to a mobile phone.”

Prior to the Tatango and eMOM partnership, there were limited ways for military personnel to simply and effectively connect with friends and family in the United States while overseas. Now, with one message directly from a computer, all loved ones on their contact group will be updated at the same time via a text message. Not only can service members send a message to everyone’s mobile phone, they will also receive immediate gratification, as replies to the text message are routed directly to their account for viewing.
