A Merseyside-based technology company is seeking to build a channel of resellers with clients that regularly travel abroad and want to slash data roaming costs.
YRoam's flagship YR4 product is a device, slightly heavier and thicker than a smartphone, that uses cloud SIM technology to locate local 4G or 3G networks that offer the most affordable rates, giving travellers their own portable Wi-Fi hot-spot.
YRoam claims the device operates in 100 countries worldwide and is not locked down to a specific network so users will only ever pay the flat rate from the data package chosen.
The hardware unit includes 1gb of data and can connect up to five devices simultaneously with a range of up to 50 metres. The YR4 also doubles as a power bank so the user can stay online and connected throughout their trip.
?"In 2017, being connected to the Internet should no longer be an expensive luxury, but an affordable and instant necessity," said YRoam MD Matt Agrimi.
"We are in the process of agreeing exclusive commercial reseller opportunities across Africa, Asia and the US to name but a few, all with groups that have recognised the opportunity that the ever-expanding demand for data roaming creates.
"We are open to all indirect channel opportunities and markets and can bespoke our commercial offering.
"The data roaming space will continue to grow at pace as will the associated revenues, and therefore the returns for any prospective partner are unrestricted."
