Our Mission
RoamingAtlas was established in 2020 to provide technically rigorous, independent analysis of mobile network technology and connectivity solutions for international travelers. Our founding team came from backgrounds in telecommunications engineering, network architecture, and technology journalism, with a shared conviction that the travel connectivity market lacked credible, technically informed independent research.
Research Standards
Our research combines direct network testing, standards documentation analysis, and independent data collection. We test connectivity services in the field across European destinations, measuring performance against standardized benchmarks. Technical claims are verified against GSMA specifications, regulatory filings, and operator technical documentation. We update our research quarterly to reflect market changes.
Editorial Independence
RoamingAtlas operates without commercial relationships that would compromise our editorial independence. We do not accept payment from connectivity providers for research coverage or favorable analysis. Our revenue model is based on display advertising, clearly identified as such, with no editorial influence. Our research team's compensation is not tied to commercial outcomes.
Independence Statement
RoamingAtlas is an independent informational resource and is not affiliated with telecom operators, mobile carriers, government agencies, or official eSIM providers. Our analysis reflects independent technical assessment based on publicly available information and field research.
