About Trustive
The Trustive team are a group of entrepreneurs who regularly travel
internationally and who therefore clearly understand the need and benefit
of being able to use Wi-Fi whilst on the move. Trustive recognises the
value of a good Wi-Fi service and when hotspot operators provide a service
that is easy to use, quick and correctly priced, then Wi-Fi technology can
quickly become a vital tool for the frequent traveller.
The reality of Wi-Fi is usually a fragmented service with different hotspot
operators having their own log in methods, billing systems and coverage
restricted to certain countries or even cities. Trustive decided to
overcome these challenges in order to improve this reality for the whole
Trustive community. Following 5 years of heavy investment and the
conclusion of strong roaming agreements with 70+ hotspot operators in 65+
countries, Trustive now offers a seamless service that is both reliable and
competitively priced across a unified and ever expanding network of 65,000
Wi-Fi hotspots.
