Mobilise launches Global Connect Wi-Fi service
New app to provide travellers with unlimited Wi-Fi access at millions of hotspots globally
LONDON, April 2018–Mobilise and Global Connect Wi-Fi today announced the launch of a new Wi-Fi Travel service for the travelling community. Global Connect Wi-Fi enables subscribers to automatically connect to its vast, global network of Wi-Fi hotspots for a fixed cost subscription of £9.99 per month. Subscribers pay as they go with no minimum contract duration and have no restrictions on data usage, enabling them to manage their cost of data consumption via our predictable pricing model. The new service will provide these users with unlimited data access to 64m+ million Wi-Fi hotspots globally.
Mobilise, with its Mobilise Hotspots solution, has designed and delivered an end-to-end Wi-Fi service for GlobalConnect (www.globalconnectwifi.com). The service includes the GlobalConnect branded mobile app, e-commerce capability and Wi-Fi network connectivity, all under a hosted, managed service model.
The Global Connect Wi-Fi service will be offered as a one-month subscription, with no time or usage limits, and users will be able to access it on iOS and Android devices and connect with up to two devices at a time. The application will also provide automatic connectivity in the background, with no advertising or splash screens for users to contend with.
“We are delighted to have been able to build this new Wi-Fi service for Global Connect,” said Hamish White, Founder and CEO of Mobilise Technology. “Global Connect have a very exciting go-to-market strategy, by creating partnerships with existing brands and incentivizing those brands with an affiliate commissions model, Global Connect will have instant access to large and established customer bases. We think this will make the service a huge success. At Mobilise continue to see data usage increase demand for data and better connectivity. The Global Connect Wi-Fi service is an innovative route to addressing that user demand.”
Jordan Hurley from Global Connect Wi-Fi said, “I have been working on the idea to keep the world connected for over 2.5 years, and after meeting Hamish and the team at Mobilise they have brought my vision to life. Me and my team have worked closely with Mobilise and it has been and will continue to be an enjoyable experience. Global Connect Wi-Fi is now looking forward to providing our unique Wi-Fi service all around the world.”

About Global Connect Wi-Fi LTD.
Jordan was frustrated at being unable to easily find the venues and locations to connect to Wi-Fi so he could stay in contact with friends, family and businesses whilst on the move around the world. But to make this work he needed access to global Wi-Fi Hotspots. This is how GlobalConnect was born. Global Connect provides the Wi-Fi platform to enable anyone on the move to connect to 10’s of millions of hotspots in over 120 countries not having to pay high short-term connectivity costs or without handing over personal data via WiFi signup forms.
