Goodspeed international data roaming service extends to Canada

• Canada joins U.S. to provide low-cost data roaming coverage across North America
• Goodspeed now covers 29 destinations including U.S., Russia, China and Europe
• Goodspeed’s transparent daily flat rate fee brings an end to high data roaming charges

Uros announces it now provides low-cost mobile data in Canada with Goodspeed, a secure mobile Wi-Fi hotspot. This brings the number of countries where business travellers can enjoy fixed fee, low cost mobile internet access through the Goodspeed service to 29 including the U.S., Russia, China and Europe.

With 2.4 million business travellers a year visiting Canada, the country is a key destination for business for the U.S. and Europe. By offering a transparent daily flat rate cost of €5.90 for 500MB worth of mobile roaming data, users can stay connected with Goodspeed without having to worry about high data roaming charges and bill shock. 500MB of data is the equivalent of 100 emails, 2 hours of web browsing, 20 minutes of video streaming and 30 minutes of Skype calls. It is also twice the daily data consumption of the average Internet user.

The Goodspeed hotspot device can accommodate up to nine SIM cards, including the user’s local SIM and users can purchase destination SIM cards direct from www.uros.com, prior to travelling. International travellers can also create a private WLAN network and share the Goodspeed connection with up to five Wi-Fi-enabled devices, such as smartphones, tablets, laptops and smart TVs, at any one time.

Tommi Uhari, CEO of Uros says “The addition of Canada as a destination for Goodspeed means we now cover North America, an important and popular region for business travellers. With other major regions in the pipeline, the Goodspeed network is expanding fast. Soon everyone will be able to enjoy low-cost, high speed internet no matter where they are travelling. By charging a flat daily rate, users can access the internet abroad with confidence and not fear of receiving a massive bill on their return.”

Goodspeed offer three service plans - Lite, Pro or Business. For more information on these plans and the Goodspeed personal mobile Wi-Fi hotspot device please visit www.uros.com.
