Emtel, a premier telecom network operator in Mauritius, has unveiled travel eSIM service, marking a historic milestone as the world's first mobile operator to introduce such a feature to complement its traditional international roaming services for travelers 

Powered by eSIM Go’s innovative Powered by Breeze solution, this service empowers Mauritian travelers with seamless access to mobile data bundles worldwide, often at significantly reduced rates. This achievement is made possible through reciprocal cross-border agreements between mobile network operators (MNOs), revolutionizing the landscape of international roaming.

Mitch Fordham, CRO and co-founder at eSIM Go, expressed, “We’re delighted to be helping Emtel tear up the MNO rule book on international roaming for the benefit of their subscribers, through our Powered by Breeze solution. This continues Emtel’s strong legacy of tech innovation with another global first, successfully navigating the thorny pricing issue experienced by MNOs and their subscribers in places like Mauritius that welcome far more inbound roaming traffic from visitors than the outbound traffic local subscribers generate when data roaming abroad.”

The newly launched service, named eSIM Voyaz by Emtel, powered by Breeze, is now available, offering a diverse range of bundle options. Many popular destinations are covered with multi-network support and access to 5G connectivity.

Kresh Goomany, CEO at Emtel, emphasised, “Emtel has always pioneered technology and services for its customers. As the first mobile network operator in Mauritius, we are obsessed about customer experience. We understand the need to stay in touch when traveling abroad and we also know the pain of high data roaming charges without forgetting the hassle of getting a new SIM when reaching the visiting country. In a world where seamless connectivity is a necessity, we are thrilled to introduce eSIM Voyaz, a game changer for Mauritian travelers. Through our partnership with eSIM Go, we offer a truly global travel data eSIM, with data packages in over 150 countries, available to all Mauritians with an eSIM compatible device. eSIM Voyaz keeps you connected with ease and flexibility and gives peace of mind. No need to worry about high data roaming bills! And the best part of it is that you keep your existing WhatsApp number even when abroad.”

Experience the convenience of eSIM Voyaz on your next journey. Purchase it now at https://voyaz.breezesim.com/.
