Connectivity is a basic necessity for most but still represents a significant challenge to many travellers. To combat this, Flexiroam provides affordable, borderless data roaming globally. Flexiroam X currently has about 120,000 subscribers from over 50 different countries worldwide and counting. Those selected as Flexiroam X² BETA users will be able to enjoy free Flexiroam data for WhatsApp without incurring any costs.

Founded in 2009, WhatsApp currently has 1 billion active users daily and is widely used in 109 countries. Over 55 billion messages are sent over WhatsApp everyday, as well as 4.5 billion photos and 1 billion videos.

The official version of Flexiroam X² will be released in the second quarter of 2018. Flexiroam?s new platform will sell a specific data pool to other mobile operators, Over-The-Top (OTT) players and advertisers so they can incentivise their users by providing them with free data to use its application. Advertisers who aim to increase customer loyalty can purchase a data package from Flexiroam and offer value-adding services or incentives to their users so that they can continue using their service whilst travelling abroad without incurring any data roaming charges.

WhatsApp users worldwide can sign up for Flexiroam X² BETA by entering their email address at  https://www.flexiroam.com/x2.
