B2B2C sales route for “eSIMs as an experience”
Proven by newcomer Hubby in second full year
Hubby – the worldwide mobile internet solution for travel sellers and travel providers to keep customers connected in-destination – has confirmed that it is about to close a successful second full year of trading that proves its B2B2C sales route hypothesis.
Launched in December 2022, Hubby’s B2B2C tech solution enhances customer service and creates cross-selling opportunities for travel sellers and providers by offering worldwide internet as a value-add for their end customers whilst in-destination – all at a neglible price point through the use of affordable eSIMs.
As the second full year of trading enters the fourth quarter Hubby is pleased to confirm that revenues will hit around €750,000 and that already the company has delivered over 175,000 eSIMs through its B2B2C sales routes, including via travel agencies and tour operators.
Thijs van de Wijk, Founder & CEO of Hubby, comments: “What an exciting second full year this has been for our business and I’d like to thank all of our B2B2C partners who have placed their faith in us to provide their travellers with internet in destination.
“At the outset we felt very strongly that selling eSIMs as an ancillary on commission to consumers was already on its way out and that the best way to distribute them was as a value-add through travel providers and partners – having such players instead use them as an enabler of value for their clients that opens the door to cross-selling and improved customer experiences. What other product could you offer your customer for just a few euros that adds so much to their experience and directly benefits you? Our clients report increased bottom line and NPS scores and the word is getting out there, we’ve had enquiries from all four corners of the world.
“Watch this space for more news as we expand the team and announce significant partnerships with sellers and providers of travel to take Hubby global.”
To date the company has been funded with €450,000 raised from friends-and-family. But now that the Hubby B2B2C sales model has been proven the company is in advanced dicsussions with investors for a seed fundraising in the €2m to €3m range and more details will be announced very soon.
