TORONTO – Following a successful 12 month pre-launch and beta period, wireless customers can now buy a sticker that lets them roam cheaply.
Toronto’s KnowRoaming today announced the availability of the KnowRoaming SIM sticker for $29.99, a sticker which automatically connects all unlocked GSM iOS, Android and Windows Mobile phones, tablets and SIM cards to local wireless carriers, providing reduced voice, data and text roaming rates up to 85% when traveling abroad in 200 countries and territories using KnowRoaming's Virtual SIM Technology, according to the company.
"The sticker technology together with our unlimited data bundles allow you to stay connected while traveling without having to swap out SIM cards or count megabytes," said KnowRoaming CEO Gregory Gundelfinger, in the release. KnowRoaming has also announced today its unlimited data packages, KnowRoaming Long Distance and the Enterprise Management portal:
"Corporations have hundreds, if not thousands of employees traveling around the globe at anytime," continued Gundelfinger. "The costs associated with keeping those employees connected and doing business are astronomical with traditional roaming solutions. KnowRoaming provides a seamless, cost effective solution for any enterprise."
Customers apply the KnowRoaming sticker to their SIM card once and download the KnowRoaming iPhone or Android app (Windows Mobile users access a mobile web app) to create an account, load funds (via credit card) on to their account, enable phone settings to prepare for travel, track usage and purchase a local number in the country they are traveling in. With KnowRoaming installed, customers can receive all incoming calls from their home SIM and display their home number to whomever they call while traveling abroad and more.
KnowRoaming is only active when the phone leaves its home country and remains completely dormant when at home.
