“TravelSIM has already proved popular with our retail customers and is now seen as an essential Travel Product, which saves our customers significantly on their global roaming telecommunication costs,” said Neil Gestro, General Manager Commercial of Stella Travel, on signing the agreement in Auckland this week

The TravelSIM prepaid mobile phone service, launched in New Zealand earlier this year, offers substantially lower global roaming charges for text, calls and data via its global roaming network of 350 carriers.
