Airtel Uganda Offers 95% Reduction in Calls Cost Across Africa and Asia

Airtel Uganda has recently disclosed that they are now offering a 95% reduction in the cost of calls across Africa and Asia to help ease communication costs for travelers.

Our customers using the Pay Go retail tariff and the Daily and Weekly One Airtel Roaming bundle will be able to make calls across Africa and Asia for as low as shs 250.

With the increase in the use of online communication, we have also revised our roaming data packages, the weekly bundle, for example, will now see customers get 1.5GB for shs10,000 and 10GB for shs55,000 valid for a month. This is to allow customers to do more on their digital communications like WhatsApp, zoom, and Microsoft teams.

Roaming bundles and tariffs for calls should remain reasonably affordable for any Airtel customer traveling and choosing to continue using their Airtel SIM card within the Airtel One Network footprint. Additionally, affordable international phone calls are a great way to stimulate and attract business investments,” Kyomuhendo noted.

Airtel Uganda takes pride in innovating and introducing products plus services that relate to the current trend in the Ugandan market and beyond, and with over 500 roaming partners worldwide and our superior 4G network, we believe that our customers will enjoy seamless internet and calls at affordable rates with the same home sim card while traveling.
