Ga Weissenstein

What Ga Weissenstein does

GA Weissenstein GmbH is a regional telecommunications provider headquartered in Solothurn, Switzerland, founded in 2001 and structured as a Swiss private limited company (GmbH). It serves both residential and business customers in the Solothurn canton through an offering that bundles internet, television, mobile telephony, and landline services. The company is positioned as a regional Quickline partner, reselling the full Quickline product portfolio while maintaining its own customer-facing distribution footprint in its service area. It has no subsidiaries, no parent company, no disclosed ownership structure, and no public listing.

The company's core technology stack combines its own regional cable network infrastructure (Kabelnetz) in the Solothurn area with fiber optic (Glasfaser) connectivity delivered through the Quickline partnership, plus 5G-based mobile services. Residential internet tiers span from 100 Mbit/s to 10 Gbit/s over fiber, paired with Quickline TV offering 215+ channels and up to 2,000 hours of recording across up to five TV boxes. Business-tier products include dedicated business internet with 2nd level support, VoIP business telephony (virtual telephone system), business mobile plans, and business TV. Add-on services include the Plume HomePass managed WiFi subscription and the VIP Service-Paket premium support tier; hardware like SuperPod WiFi 6 mesh devices, routers, and accessories are sold through the company's own online shop and retail locations.

GA Weissenstein's revenue model is built on recurring monthly subscriptions across Internet, TV, Mobile, and landline plans, with promotional 24-month contract pricing for new customers. Secondary revenue streams include hardware and accessories sales (routers, TV boxes, SuperPods, LED lighting, power banks) via the online shop and two physical shop locations in Solothurn (Altstadt at Friedhofgasse 11 and Hauptsitz at Weissensteinstrasse 1), fee-based customer education courses, and small recurring add-ons (VIP Service-Paket at CHF 6.90/month, Plume HomePass at CHF 3.90/month). Distribution relies on a hybrid go-to-market: direct-to-consumer via shops, online store, and free in-home consultations, paired with channel-partner-led reselling of Quickline's national product portfolio under the GAW brand.

Scale indicators1 record

Recent moves4 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Salt: Swiss mobile and broadband operator competing for the same residential and SMB customers in the Solothurn region. Comparable as a competing Swiss telecom provider, particularly in mobile, where GA Weissenstein ranks Top 4 alongside Salt in the SIQT standings.
• Swisscom: Switzerland's incumbent telecom operator offering national fiber, mobile, TV, and business services. Competes directly with GA Weissenstein in the Solothurn region and represents the largest competitive threat; comparable only at the broad industry level given the scale gap.
• Sunrise: Swiss national carrier offering fiber, mobile, TV, and business services. Competes head-to-head with GA Weissenstein in Solothurn, particularly in mobile and bundles; comparable as a competing telecom provider in the same market, though at significantly larger scale.
• init7 (Schweiz) AG: Independent Swiss fiber internet and hosting provider. Comparable in offering connectivity and related services to Swiss residential and business customers, but operates at national scale and focuses more on internet/backbone than the full telecoms bundle GA Weissenstein delivers.

Direct peers

• M-Budget Mobile: Swiss mobile brand owned by the Migros cooperative, reselling mobile services on Sunrise's network. Comparable as a Swiss mobile reseller with a regional mass-market customer base, similar go-to-market (own storefronts, partner distribution).
• GGA Maur: Regional cable and telecom operator serving the Zurich area with Internet, TV, mobile, and telephony services. Highly comparable to GA Weissenstein in business model: owns local cable/fiber infrastructure, sells bundled telecom services to residential and SMB customers, and competes with the same national carriers.
• Quickline: Switzerland's largest regional cable network alliance and the upstream partner/product supplier of GA Weissenstein. Comparable as a multi-region telecom operator offering Internet, TV, Mobile, and Business products through its own partner network — the same product stack GA Weissenstein resells.
• Yallo: Swiss mobile reseller operating on Sunrise's network, offering mobile plans to consumers and small businesses. Comparable to GA Weissenstein's mobile offering as a Swiss mobile reseller/agent, though pure-play mobile rather than full bundle.
• iWay AG: Swiss regional internet, TV, and telephony provider focused on fiber and DSL services. Comparable as a smaller Swiss telco offering bundled internet/TV/voice services to residential and SMB customers at a regional level.
• Rii Seez Net: Regional Swiss cable/telecom provider in eastern Switzerland offering Internet, TV, and telephony. Operates as a smaller regional carrier with similar scope to GA Weissenstein — same target customer, same product mix, same competitive set.
