DT One, the Singapore-based business to business (B2B) firm for cross-border digital transfers, announced Tuesday its acquisition of DENT Telecom (DENT), a Germany-based embedded telecom and eSIM platform.

DT One said in a statement that together, DT One and DENT are building the distribution layer for global mobile data, one that works for the next billion users.

As part of the acquisition, DENT will be rebranded as Tunz.

It is noted that DENT’s app-based technology already enables users in over 140 countries to buy mobile data on demand, install eSIMs in seconds, and connect without borders.

Meanwhile, DT One’s platform already processes over 100 million transactions annually across 160+ countries through a network of more than 600 mobile operators and digital partners.

For users, this means faster, fairer access to mobile connectivity wherever they go.

For DT One’s partners, from travel platforms to fintechs to super apps, it unlocks a plug-and-play eSIM product they can offer to their customers through one platform, one application programming interface (API), and one partner.

“This acquisition catapults us to the forefront of embedded telecom. DENT has built one of the most scalable, elegant eSIM platforms in the market,

“By plugging it into our platform, we’re unlocking a future where any app, brand, or platform can offer seamless mobile data, globally, instantly, and without friction,” said Peter De Caluwe, Chief Executive Officer of DT One.

“We’re not just integrating a product, we’re enabling a new global standard for how mobile connectivity is accessed and delivered,

“As digital services expand across borders, so should the infrastructure that powers them,” he added.

Meanwhile, Thomas Dingler, Chief Executive Officer of DENT, said the firm has built DENT to remove complexity from mobile connectivity.

“By joining forces with DT One, we can bring that simplicity to more people, more partners, and more markets, faster than before,

“This is how we make connectivity native to the digital world, not an afterthought,” he added.
