There are no additional fees to activate or access Roam Mobility’s network. The company has teamed up with an unnamed Canadian wireless carrier for this offering.
Emir Aboulhosn, Founder and CEO of Otono (Roam Mobility’s parent company), said in a statement “For many, staying connected in Canada means paying high fees or being constrained by small data packages or limited minutes. Roam Mobility’s Canada Travel SIM removes those restrictions and delivers the connectivity that today’s travellers need.”

forgot the most important detail. What provider will it run off?
We asked, they weren’t allowed to disclose that info.
Wind? Hehe! 🙂
Can’t be. Their coverage is too small. And Roam would be shooting themselves in the foot if they partnered with WIND lol
can i use our existing roam mobility card that i use in the usa? It would be perfect for when visitors are here from the usa
Good question, my guess is probably not. Much like the USA chip has a US number, the Canadian chip will have a Canadian number. Hmm, only 500 MB of data regardless of the term is not that great.
