WeRoam, which offers authentication, billing, and settlement services to operators, added Ireland's Bitbuzz to its network: Bitbuzz now has about 30 hotspots but plans to grow. The agreement means that customers of WeRoam's operator customers, such as Orange of Switzerland, can now roam onto Bitbuzz hotspots. WeRoam mainly touts its ability to do SIM-based authentication but it will support other types of authentication based on the capabilities of the hotspot operator.
We covered WeRoam's business model and how it compares to other roaming solutions in May.
