Transatel Launches Innovative Data SIM

Transatel is on course to break down current data roaming constraints with the introduction of its brand-new Data SIM card. The new offering is the result of many years of R&D and proprietary development around the Transatel SIM 901 concept and innovative technology. The service offers connectivity anywhere, at any time, from any device, facilitating travel and peace of mind when you leave home.

Jacques Bonifay, CEO of Transatel: "Today, only 3 to 4% of computers and 5 to 10% of tablets on the market are provided with a module that allows the insertion of a SIM card. Most often, they are only Wi-Fi equipped, which is problematic since Wi-Fi isn't always available, and can be expensive. The Transatel Data SIM card delivers connectivity in any given country at local rates. We are currently negotiating agreements worldwide with local operators, and will keep adding access to 2 to 3 countries every month."

Transatel is now ready to offer its global Data SIM card for the sole purpose of data roaming at local rates. Currently partnering with fifteen countries, Transatel is continually expanding its scope, aiming towards worldwide coverage. Among the countries where one can benefit from local connectivity starting today: France, Belgium, Poland, Portugal, Switzerland, Spain, Germany, Taiwan, India, Malaysia...

The solution is ideal for frequent or regular travellers: executives who balance work abroad with work at home, tourists who want to explore their destination while remaining connected. What is more, the Transatel Data SIM card works in one's home country as well: one never needs to switch from one data roaming outlet to another.
