OUR STORY
FREI is born out of a predecessor company (Tradeswitch (Pty) Ltd) that has operated prepaid Electronic Voucher Distribution (EVD) services at scale, proving its platform capability to many of South Africa’s leading organisations.
In 2017, FREI began augmenting its capabilities to include a full suite of MVNE services to focus on the next wave of mobile telecommunications in South Africa.
FREI is the result of more than a decade of platform technology development and we are currently fully integrated and operational using the Cell C network.
