Hudya has signed a brand agreement with Telenor A/S for launch of Hudya Mobile in Denmark
The fintech company Hudya AB and Telenor A/S have signed a brand agreement regarding launch of mobile telephony in Denmark. The brand agreement will enable Hudya to sell Telenor subscriptions branded as Hudya also on the Danish market.
- By launching mobile telephony in Denmark Hudya is getting closer to a complete offer of Hudya services also on the Danish market, with 3 out of 4 everyday services available. The investments and time to market will be significantly smaller and shorter compared to a service provider agreement, because Telenor will provision, manage and invoice all subscriptions on Hudya’s behalf. Hence the financial risk for Hudya is significantly lower compared to other agreements with network operators, says Pål Eivind Vegard, Product Director Telecom. He continues:
- We are very happy to have signed this brand agreement with Telenor A/S. Now we can move forward and speed up the process of Hudya’s planned expansion in Denmark, and work towards the launch of an additional vertical, mobile telephony, in addition to power and refinancing of loans which we already provide today.
Hudya intends to launch Hudya Mobile in Denmark during Q2/Q3 2020.
Børge Leknes, CEO Hudya, is looking forward to launch the mobile vertical on the Danish market, since it is a large and important step towards completing Hudya’s offers in the Danish market.
- We have positive experiences with Telenor as our Mobile Network Operator (MNO) on the Norwegian market and are very happy to continue our co-operation with Telenor also in Denmark. Through this agreement with Telenor, Hudya will be able to deliver quality products to the Danish market in an efficient and well proven context, says Børge Leknes, and continues:
- On the Norwegian market, mobile telephony has been a successful vertical of continuous growth, both organic and due to Hudya’s acquisitions of existing customer bases. Mobile as an entry-service has also proven to be an efficient way to recruit new customers to the Hudya platform, and the business in Denmark will be built up based on the experiences we have made in Norway.
During the last months, Hudya has reorganized the business in Denmark.
- We are reorganizing the business in Denmark towards a more lean and less employee intensive organization. This agreement with Telenor is an important element enforcing this strategy, concludes Børge Leknes.
