Swisscom Mobile and Trustive Sign Mutual Hotspot Roaming Agreement

By Divya Narain, TMCnet Contributing Editor

Trustive, a provider of wireless hotspot access in Europe, has entered into a bilateral roaming agreement with Swisscom Mobile, a mobile provider in Switzerland.




The agreement implies that it will be possible for the customers of Swisscom Mobile to access Trustive's global network, which covers key European airports and prime locations. At its end of the bargain, Trustive will benefit from Swisscom Mobile's extensive hotspot network, consisting of 1,000 high-quality hotspots in Switzerland, including Geneva airport and leading Swiss hotels. Trustive’s network boasts over 32,000 hotspots.
 
Swisscom Mobile customers can get access to  the new hotspots offering through a Swisscom Mobile branded web login by entering their mobile number and a password received via SMS. The usage of Trustive’s hotpots will be billed on customers’ Swisscom Mobile invoice.

"Swisscom Mobile is a key mobile operator in the European WiFi space, so we are delighted to be working with them. This furthers Trustive's position as
leaders in the European WiFi (News - Alert) access market and is great news for both our retail and wholesale customers," said Gavin Dresselhuis, co-founder and managing director of Trustive.

Tommy Bertling, senior product manager at Swisscom Mobile had this to say: "We are continually looking to provide innovative WiFi services to our customers.
This agreement with Trustive means that we can offer access to an expanded hi-quality network all under the Swisscom brand."
