TPG will also be able to deliver a seamless experience to end-users, as our OTA platform will provide TPG customers accurate network settings at any time for more reliable coverage, in Singapore or while roaming to neighborhood countries. This is crucial for a telecom provider seeking to build a strong and loyal customer base. We are excited to support TPG on its journey to expand in Singapore,” said Benson Yeo, Asia Pacific Vice President of Mobile Operators business at IDEMIA.
Prior to its commercial launch in Singapore, TPG offered a series of innovative services such as its free mobile service trial with unlimited data and free data roaming to selected neighbouring countries.
