Truphone has recently announced its intention, and in the process to acquire SIM4travel’s assets which include customer base, distribution, infrastructure, and staff in London and Portugal, with a view to complete its GSM network and transverse beyond low-cost WiFi.
With this takeover Truphone gains SIM4travel’s travel SIM capability along with SIM4travel’s Mobile Virtual Network Enabler platform. Truphone will begin integrating SIM4travel’s assets into their portfolio immediately but will take a few months to finish.
So to make that a little clearer, Truphone is about to launch a singular global Truphone SIM which allows users to make cheaper calls even outside a WiFi zone.
