Zain launches Wi-Fi roaming with iPass

The Kuwaiti cellular operator Zain has launched a Wi-Fi hotspot roaming service in partnership with global Wi-Fi provider iPass. The service, which is being marketed to Zain customers under the label ‘Zain Pass’, gives users access to over one million hotspots around the world. Zain says that its operations in other Middle East markets will soon be launching their own respective Zain Pass services. Zain and iPass first inked their hotspot roaming agreement in March this year.
