BICS announced that it will be providing its complete range of voice and data roaming services to Swazi Mobile, Swaziland’s recently launched second mobile network. BICS has deployed its full roaming outfit to Swazi Mobile, enabling end-users to benefit from international voice and data services, SMS messaging, signaling, IPX and data clearing services. Both incoming visitors to the country and outgoing roamers can now take advantage of BICS’ portfolio of over 700 partnerships worldwide across 4G networks.
There are around 250,000 inbound roamers in Swaziland, with a vast majority (around 98%) travelling from neighbouring countries South Africa and Mozambique. Mobile users in this region will benefit from BICS’ point-of-presence in Johannesburg, South Africa, which means that regional traffic will be managed locally.
