Ooredoo Maldives has reached a milestone in its journey, commemorating two decades of service that have transformed the nation’s digital landscape and enhanced everyday life for residents and visitors alike. In celebration of its 20th anniversary, the company is introducing a host of new services, promotions, and community activities that showcase its continued leadership in the telecommunications sector.
Since its establishment, Ooredoo Maldives has consistently introduced first-of-its-kind technologies to the island nation. It was the first to bring 3G, 4G, and 5G AirFibre broadband services to the Maldives, playing a pivotal role in enhancing digital access across the entire archipelago. The company’s advanced infrastructure includes a Tier 3 Data Centre in Hulhumalé and a regional facility in Kulhudhuffushi, underlining its commitment to nationwide connectivity and technological excellence.
To mark the occasion, Ooredoo has rolled out a new customer campaign titled “Live Unlimited,” offering exciting giveaways and service upgrades. Among the highlights is a promotional series offering 19 Umrah trips, one every 20 days along with a grand prize of a Hajj trip for two, as a gesture of appreciation to its long-time customers.
Further enhancing its reputation for innovation, Ooredoo has become the first operator in the Maldives to introduce Apple Watch Cellular Service via eSIM. This new feature allows customers to stay connected directly through their Apple Watch without needing a phone nearby. The service is offered free of charge for the first six months, after which a subscription of MVR 199 per month will apply.
As digital lifestyles evolve, Ooredoo continues to diversify its offerings. A new smart home bundle has been launched for SuperNet users, integrating high-speed broadband with smart security devices like surveillance cameras and video doorbells. The company plans to expand this bundle with additional smart features in the near future.
In addition to technological services, community engagement remains a core part of Ooredoo’s identity. The beloved Ooredoo Fun Run is set to take place in Hulhumalé this December and in Addu City on June 27. The annual Masrace fishing competition, a nod to the Maldives’ strong maritime heritage, will be hosted across three regions, with local councils invited to participate in planning additional events.
Highlighting its support for local culture and talent, Ooredoo has appointed Rashid Adam, widely known through his social media presence as “The Life of a Fisherman” as its brand ambassador. Rashid’s storytelling through traditional fishing techniques has captured the hearts of many and will now serve as a unique cultural bridge in promoting the Maldives on a broader scale.
With 20 years of achievements behind it, Ooredoo Maldives continues to look forward. By combining world-class technology with deep-rooted community values, the company is not just enhancing connectivity, it is enriching the Maldives’ position as a modern, well-connected paradise for tourists and locals alike.
