Maritime Roaming Service
On-Waves is a maritime service offered by Siminn, headquartered in Reykjavik, Iceland.
Siminn has operated roaming services for the maritime market since early 2003. In order to provide maritime GSM services, Siminn has undertaken major investments and has secured extensions of its terrestrial roaming agreements into the maritime domain. On-waves and Siminn are fully compliant with GSM Association standards and regulations.
On-Waves currently provides service to more than 500 vessels both cruise ships and large ferries operating in Europe, the Caribbean and the southern hemisphere, and cargo ships and offshore installations. By extending the GSM footprint to previously un-serviced areas, On-Waves is helping mobile phone users to remain reachable, thus generating additional traffic for both the HPMN and the VPMN. It is therefore in the interest of both HPMN and VPMN to promote the use of the service.
