Roam Premium eSIM: Integrating voice calls + SMS + data, further improving the communication product matrix
On May 23, Eastern Time, at the Solana Accelerate conference held in New York, Roam introduced its new product, Premium eSIM ------ a global mobile communication solution that integrates voice calls, SMS, and data functions, offering more flexibility, speed, and security. Roam Premium eSIM service covers over 160 countries and regions worldwide, with no roaming fees and no need for a physical SIM card. It can be activated with one click through the Roam App, enabling a seamless communication experience.
Roam Premium eSIM: A Thoughtful Global Mobile Communication Solution
Building on the Global eSIM, which originally supported data services, Roam Premium eSIM further adds voice call and SMS functionalities, truly integrating communication and data into one eSIM that works globally. Currently, users can register for Premium eSIM, complete email binding, account top-up, and KYC verification. At the Solana Accelerate conference, Roam demonstrated the corresponding operations on-site. It is reported that Premium eSIM phone numbers will be available soon, with voice and SMS services launching simultaneously.
Compared to traditional eSIM services, Roam Premium eSIM has unique advantages:
- Equipped with Phone Number Each user will receive a phone number based in Austria (+43), which can be used for global calls and SMS.
- Global Coverage The Premium eSIM service will cover over 160 countries and regions, enabling global connectivity.
- Integrated Voice Calls + SMS + Data No longer limited to internet functionality, Premium eSIM supports voice calls (both outgoing and incoming), SMS services (sending and receiving), and high-speed data connections, achieving a truly integrated communication experience.
- No Physical Card Required No need for a physical SIM card; activation can be done with one click in the Roam App, providing a plug-and-play seamless experience.
- No Roaming Fees Helping users say goodbye to traditional "roaming fees."
- Diverse Payment Options Supports automatic top-up with credit cards, as well as payments in cryptocurrencies like USDC, USDT, ROAM, and localized payment methods like WeChat Pay / Alipay, ensuring uninterrupted communication services.
In addition to global no-roaming fees, the pricing structure of Premium eSIM also offers high cost-effectiveness. Users can view their account balance and usage details in real-time through the Roam App. All account management and functional operations can be completed within the App, eliminating the need to contact customer service or go through offline processes, making it simple and convenient for users to easily manage communication costs globally and avoid unexpected expenses.
One-Click Registration, Simple and Convenient Operation, One-Stop Management with Roam App
Users can complete the entire process of activating Premium eSIM within the Roam App:
- Download Roam App (iOS/Android), purchase and register for Premium eSIM
- Email verification and binding
- Complete KYC verification
- Top up to ensure account balance ≥ $20 and complete the charge (activating the card will deduct $2, and the remaining amount will be converted to account balance)
- Successfully activate Premium eSIM
For users who have activated Roam Global eSIM, Roam will provide service transfer from Global eSIM to Premium eSIM, with the system automatically transferring the remaining data balance to ensure uninterrupted communication services. It should be noted that only one of the Roam Global eSIM and Premium eSIM plans can be activated at the same time; when switching back from Premium eSIM to Global eSIM, the original Austrian number will become invalid, but the data will be retained.
Integrating Solana Verification, Roam Promotes Reform of Global Mobile Communication Trust Mechanisms
At this Solana Accelerate conference, Roam announced that it is one of the first projects to implement the Solana Attestation Service (SAS). SAS is a decentralized identity verification and trust certification service based on the Solana blockchain, aimed at providing users and projects with secure and trustworthy digital identity solutions, ensuring data privacy and transaction transparency. Roam collaborates with SAS to provide secure identity management for users, better verifying user information and promoting the development of network security.
Roam is committed to building a decentralized global open wireless network that combines OpenRoamingTM WiFi and eSIM. Currently, there are over 3.8 million Roam self-built WiFi nodes and over 4.5 million OpenRoaming™ WiFi nodes globally. 2.7 million Roam users check in daily, contributing to over 300 million network verification actions. Roam has established the world's largest and most active DePIN open wireless network. Leveraging Roam's global network of over 8 million WiFi nodes, Roam eSIM users can enjoy unlimited data within the coverage area and receive free data benefits through the Roam App. This vast and continuously growing network not only provides users with a stable and reliable connection experience but also lays a solid foundation for the global expansion of Roam eSIM and large-scale applications of Web3.
Roam eSIM has already been implemented in Web3 enterprises, with leading exchanges Bybit and MEXC joining the Roam enterprise eSIM benefits program, providing seamless mobile communication services for their employees working remotely and traveling globally. Now, with the official launch of Roam Premium eSIM, which integrates voice calls, SMS, and data, Roam's service capability has evolved from "global connectivity" to "comprehensive communication," marking further improvement in its product matrix of open wireless networks.
The launch of Roam Premium eSIM not only meets the growing multi-faceted needs of global teams in "identity, security, and connectivity" but also provides solutions for enterprises to eliminate communication fragmentation in multi-country operations. In the future, Roam will collaborate with more Web3 and Web2 enterprises and multinational organizations to promote the popularization of decentralized communication identity standards, jointly accelerating the fundamental transformation of global communication from physical infrastructure to trusted identity networks.
