Iraq Gets VoWiFi as Asiacell Launches First-of-its-Kind Service

September 11, 2025
2 min read

It marks another milestone in Asiacell’s journey toward leading innovation and improving connectivity quality in the Iraqi telecom market.

Asiacell , the leading telecommunications and digital services provider in Iraq, has announced the launch of Voice over Wi-Fi (VoWiFi) service for the first time in the country. This new service offers Asiacell subscribers a high-quality calling experience focused on clarity, reliability, and ease of use. It marks another milestone in Asiacell’s journey toward leading innovation and improving connectivity quality in the Iraqi telecom market.

VoWiFi is designed to meet the needs of subscribers in areas with limited mobile network coverage, such as high-rise buildings, basements, or remote locations. All a subscriber needs is a Wi-Fi connection to enjoy clearer calls without any additional applications or charges. The service is automatically and freely activated for all Asiacell subscribers.

 

Quick Look: What makes VoWiFi special?

  • Clearer calls and better voice quality, even in low-signal areas.
  • Free and automatic activation for all Asiacell users, no additional apps required.
  • Complete flexibility, allowing users to stay connected over Wi-Fi wherever they are.

With the rapid urban expansion in Baghdad and other Iraqi cities, and the rise in residential and commercial towers, new challenges have emerged, such as network congestion and weak indoor signals. VoWiFi is Asiacell’s practical response to these challenges, ensuring a reliable and crystal-clear calling experience wherever they are, even in densely populated areas. It reflects Asiacell’s ongoing commitment to investing in the latest global technologies and delivering telecom solutions that can cope up with the local market needs and the aspirations of Iraqi users for seamless and dependable communication.

“The launch of the VoWiFi service marks a key milestone in our mission to enhance the Iraqi subscribers’ experience. We developed this service to meet the needs of our users in different locations and to offer them clearer calls without any hassle. This achievement reinforces our vision to deliver innovative, world-class telecom solutions in Iraq.”

Chra Hussein, Chief Commercial Officer, Asiacell

Asiacell subscribers can now instantly benefit from VoWiFi just by connecting to a Wi-Fi network, making every call clearer, smoother, no matter where they are.

This launch is part of Asiacell’s broader strategy to accelerate Iraq’s digital transformation and solidify its position as the most innovative and reliable telecom provider in the country. With preparations underway to launch the 5G network as soon as regulatory approvals are granted, Asiacell continues its commitment to offering cutting-edge services that meet global standards and keep Iraqis always connected.
