With less than 6 months to go until the sporting world launches into another Japanese hosted event, global telecommunications provider Cellhire is gearing up to provide businesses and travellers with unrivalled mobile connectivity during their trip to Tokyo.
An estimated 600,000 tourists, and 11,000 athletes from 206 nations are expected to descend to the Japanese capital next summer, all expecting to seamlessly connect, browse, like and share their experiences.
No stranger to major global events, Cellhire has extensive experience in providing global media companies, international broadcasters, athletes, sponsors, teams, and spectators with secure, high-speed data connections and reliable low-cost calling. Following the recent Rugby tournament in Japan, Cellhire is well placed to provide individuals and organisations with local Japanese SIM cards, smartphones, mobile hotspots, satellite devices and other value-added telecoms services.
Why choose Cellhire?
Having had a long-standing presence in Japan since 2005, Cellhire is experienced in providing first-class telecoms services in the Japanese market. With access to two local Japanese networks, Docomo and Softbank, Cellhire can ensure full country coverage on exclusive rates for attendees requiring bespoke voice and data packages.
At the heart of the action
Anticipating the large number of attendees expected to travel to Japan, Cellhire has relocated and upsized its central Tokyo offices, to better accommodate its customers during the event. The utilisation of the new, bigger office premises will allow for optimised on-ground support and next day delivery, providing excellent customer service and support during the event.
Alongside the new office, the Cellhire Japan team will also be available to customers during events via a concierge desk, conveniently situated within close walking distance of the International Broadcast Centre in the Tokyo Bay Olympic area. Cellhire, as ever, will be at the heart of the action to support customers with their event communications and equipment requirements.
Expert Support
As well as providing in-country support, Cellhire has an expert online technical support team available 24/7. SIM and device requirements can be delivered in advance of the event, and customers can make use of services such as address book programming to ensure they are action-ready upon arrival in Japan.
A Cellhire “Events Portal” is available to all customers and will allow visibility of connections during the event. The Portal will allow users to monitor and manage their connections, and view data usage on a line level throughout the games.
The Cellhire AllTalk Cloud Phone App
Cellhire is proud to announce an exciting new offering to users in Japan; the new Cloud Phone VoIP application, AllTalk. Developed by Cellhire for customers travelling to Tokyo, the app allows users to take advantage of unlimited app-to-app calling and cheaper international rates to 180 countries worldwide. Available to both iOS and Android users, the AllTalk Cloud Phone app will provide further flexibility and control to enable organisations to maximise operation critical event communications.
