## What is Widely?

Widely makes global connectivity simple.

One global data eSIM. No country packs to buy, install, or burn before they expire. Top up your wallet and pay only for the GB you use — at home or abroad — in 100+ countries.

Plus crystal-clear VoIP calls, SMS, and local numbers in one iPhone app. Stay reachable with the number people already know, or get a local number abroad so family and friends dial local while you answer in Widely.

WHY WIDELY IS DIFFERENT
• One Widely data eSIM — not a pile of short-lived travel packs
• Pay as you go per GB (billed in small steps) — unused prepaid waste stays in the past
• Same wallet for data, calls, and numbers — home or abroad
• Forward your existing number into the app — inbound free; outbound can show your native number

CALLS, MESSAGES & NUMBERS
• Crystal-clear VoIP calls and SMS worldwide
• Local numbers abroad from about £4.99 so loved ones dial local
• Included origin calls with your local number (where available)
• Choose which number people see when you call out

BUILT FOR HOW YOU LIVE
• Travelers — skip expensive daily roaming and one-off country eSIMs
• Expats, students & families — stay close without a second mobile carrier
• Everyday use — use Widely as your only line: numbers + data in one app

Live rates in the app. Also on the web at widely-mobile.com.

Download Widely, sign in, and stay connected — simply.
