Clear Mobitel, a global telecommunications firm with strong African and Asian roots, has officially launched its services in the United Kingdom, introducing a digital-first eSIM offering tailored to serve the needs of the African and Asian diaspora communities. Available directly through its website, www.clearmobitel.com, and on both Google Play and the App Store, the eSIM solution promises a flexible, affordable and seamless mobile experience for expats, international students, NHS professionals, and globally mobile workers.

Clear Mobitel’s entry into the UK market builds upon its growing reputation in Southern Africa, where the company has pledged a US$200 million investment in Zimbabwe’s digital infrastructure and announced a strategic partnership with Japanese tech giant NEC Corporation. This expansion into the UK marks the next step in the company’s long-term vision of becoming a cross-continental bridge for advanced connectivity.

Founder and CEO Mr Harpal Mann, a Kenyan-born UK citizen now based in Silicon Valley, said the decision to focus on the diaspora market was personal as much as it was strategic. “As someone who has lived across the UK, Kenya and the United States, I understand how important it is to stay connected to multiple homes and identities,” said Mr Mann. “We built Clear Mobitel to be a mobile platform without borders. Our eSIM offering in the UK is not just a product launch—it is a promise to serve those who navigate multiple worlds.”

The Clear Mobitel eSIM allows users to activate mobile service without the need for a physical SIM card, instead using a simple QR code or in-app activation. Users with compatible smartphones can switch on connectivity instantly, avoiding the delays, paperwork and credit checks that often come with traditional mobile providers. The product offers full UK coverage, transparent pricing and support for multiple international profiles, enabling seamless transitions between home and host countries.

The company’s price plans are competitively structured to reflect the needs of diaspora communities who rely heavily on data-driven communications and remote connectivity. Bundles include 10GB of data from just £8 per month, unlimited voice from £9.50 per month, and full unlimited data for £28 per month. Users who still prefer a physical SIM card can request one to be posted to any UK home address, ensuring flexibility across customer preferences.

Chief Marketing Officer Farai Ian Muvuti described the launch as a culturally informed response to the lived realities of the African and Asian communities in Britain. “We are not here to compete with legacy networks,” he said. “We are here to offer an alternative that understands our audience—people who travel between nations, who support loved ones abroad, and who expect their mobile service to be as adaptable as they are.”

Muvuti added that the eSIM is just the beginning. Clear Mobitel’s roadmap includes additional digital services, deeper community engagement, and further expansion across the UK and Europe. The company recently sponsored Zimfest Live 2025, the UK’s largest African cultural event, where thousands of attendees engaged with the new product offering through live demonstrations, early activations, and exclusive promotional offers.

Clear Mobitel’s broader portfolio includes cloud computing, fixed wireless access, 5G private networks, telemedicine, AI, big data, IoT, and data centre infrastructure. With its latest eSIM offering, the company has entered the personal mobile space with the same ambition it has brought to infrastructure and innovation: to make modern technology accessible, culturally relevant, and built around the user.

At a time when mobile connection defines everything from family life to financial inclusion, Clear Mobitel’s UK launch offers a solution that is timely, flexible and deeply aligned with the realities of modern diasporic living.
