What Ranks ITT does

Ranks ITT (legal name: RANKS ITT Limited) is a Bangladesh-based Internet Service Provider and integrated telecommunications company founded in 2001, headquartered in Dhaka and operating a nationwide network spanning 28+ service operating centers across all major Bangladeshi cities. The company holds an exclusive position as the only SWIFT Silver data connectivity provider in Bangladesh through a strategic partnership with Orange Business Services originating in 2003, giving it sole authorized provider rights for SWIFT Secure IP Network (SIPN) services via IPLC for the country's financial sector.

The company's product portfolio is built on a fully MPLS-enabled nationwide infrastructure using Juniper hardware, GPON fiber optic technology, and a 40GBPS fiber optic backbone with 3TBPS throughput per core PoP operating in auto-failover mode. Core offerings span four categories: Internet Services (corporate and home broadband); Data Services (MPLS VPN, IP WAN, Ethernet, and exclusive SWIFT connectivity); IP Telephony/VoIP (SIP trunking, Virtual DID Numbers, Centrex PBX, hosted Cloud PBX on FreePBX, predictive-dialer call center, SMS via SMPP/HTTP API, teleconferencing, and wholesale VoIP termination built on Asterisk, Issabel, 3CX, AVAYA, and Cisco integrations); and Cloud Services (VPS hosting, Zimbra and Microsoft Exchange email hosting, and general cloud infrastructure). A novel pay-per-active-seats Cloud PBX billing model charges only for seats with more than 30 minutes of talk time.

Ranks ITT generates revenue through monthly subscription fees across all service lines, supported by a hybrid go-to-market combining dedicated enterprise field sales with nationwide service points for mid-market and SMB customers, plus a self-service customer portal (My RITT) and online bill payment via bKash, Nagad, and payment gateways for residential consumers. The company serves enterprise customers across six industry verticals—financial services, travel/hospitality, manufacturing, government, media/entertainment, and technology/retail—via strategic carrier partnerships with SITA/Equant/Orange to deliver connectivity to international enterprise clients operating in Bangladesh. Founding ownership remains with founder Fazle Selim, and total cumulative infrastructure investment has exceeded USD 4 million since inception.
