Fliggs Mobile is a digital-first, Web3-enabled mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) that aims to bridge the gap between telecommunications and financial services.

These plans, managed entirely through the Fliggs Mobile app, include features such as eSIM activation, international roaming passes, and data boosters.
