Afrihost has confirmed that it plans to launch \u2018Afrihost Mobile\u2019 within the next few months, promising to offer \u201ccompetitive\u201d pricing on mobile data packages.<\/p>\n

Afrihost CEO Gian Visser said they are going to make their packages as simple, straight forward and as easy to understand as possible.<\/p>\n

Visser also confirmed that they partnered with MTN for their mobile data products. \u201cWe are very excited to partner with what we believe is the best network,\u201d said Visser.<\/p>\n

MTN already provides Afrihost with ADSL bandwidth, and an extension of this partnership therefore makes business sense.<\/p>\n

Using their own Access Point Name (APN) at MTN, Visser said that they will offer a variety of data packages starting at 250MB and upwards.<\/p>\n

According to, Afrihost their mobile data products will be available on a month-to-month agreement; hence no contracts.<\/p>\n

Visser would not disclose general pricing yet. However, he said that they \u201cwill be having an exclusive launch – available to Afrihost Clients only – which will not disappoint\u201d.<\/p>\n

Afrihost posted the following ‘Out of Contract’ mobile data comparison, aiming to create hype about what users can expect from them.<\/p>\n
