Net-Connect

What Net-Connect does

Net-Connect Group (NCCY) is a privately held wholesale telecommunications carrier founded in 2003 and headquartered in Limassol, Cyprus. The company operates as a licensed telecom operator across approximately nine countries in Europe and the Caribbean (Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Cyprus, Greece, Hungary, Jamaica, Moldova, Romania, and Slovakia), serving wholesale telecom carriers, mobile network operators (MNOs), service providers, resellers, and corporate enterprise clients. Its customer base exceeds 200 telecom partners globally, and the organization is staffed by more than 40 telecom experts with 24/7 service quality monitoring.

The company's core offering is wholesale voice traffic termination using a hybrid VoIP/TDM network architecture that combines cost-efficiency with stability, alongside Premium CLI routes, A-Z global destination coverage, and direct termination without carrier rerouting via established Points of Presence (POPs) and direct MNO/PTT interconnections. Adjacent product lines include SMS A2P API, SMS Web PaaS, OTP/2FA SMS, Portability API for SIM portability, Global Titles for SS7-based signaling, bidirectional DID services, and real-time fraud detection. The platform-plus-modules architecture allows the company to sell both core connectivity and value-added services to enterprise buyers.

Net-Connect monetizes primarily through transaction-based fees on voice and SMS traffic termination (priced by destination, call quality parameters, and volume), supplemented by usage-based charges on A2P and OTP messages, and subscription/recurring revenue on SMS Web PaaS, DID provisioning, and Portability APIs. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market is exclusively B2B via direct field sales and dedicated account managers, with no consumer marketing presence. No public listing, institutional investor, or parent company is disclosed; the company appears to be founder/independently operated.
