What Gmobile does

Gmobile JSC (Công ty TNHH Viễn Thông Di Động Toàn Cầu) is a Vietnamese mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) founded on July 8, 2008, originally as a joint venture between Gtel Corp and Russia's VimpelCom. VimpelCom exited in April 2012, making Gmobile a 100% domestically-owned subsidiary of Gtel Corp (Tổng Công ty Viễn Thông Toàn Cầu). The company provides mobile voice, SMS, and 4G data services by leasing capacity from three carrier partners: Mobifone, VinaPhone (VNPT), and Vietnamobile, operating under prefixes 0592-0599 and 0993-0997.

The company's product portfolio includes physical SIM cards (2G and 4G), eSIM service launched in July 2024, and two proprietary customer apps — My Gmobile for account management and SIM conversion, and iZOTA for legacy 2G subscribers transitioning off 2G networks. Distribution runs through direct service points in Hanoi, Da Nang, and Ho Chi Minh City, authorized dealers, bank and e-wallet top-up integrations (14+ banks plus MoMo and ZaloPay), and the company's own apps. Pricing is low-ARPU prepaid-led, with SIM conversion fees of 25,000-50,000 VND and security-focused packages such as MB100 at 100,000 VND/month.

Gmobile's commercial positioning is anchored in the government and public security vertical. Dedicated packages MB100 and S99 are offered to Ministry of Public Security personnel, and a March 2024 Ministry directive formally mandated Gmobile usage for police officers. Named institutional customers include the Vietnam Academy of Public Security and Hung Vuong Hospital. The company also runs consumer and partnership-led segments via deals with VTVcab (content bundling), VinaPhone/Mobifone/Vietnamobile (infrastructure), Nokia (public safety), MSB (telecom-banking), Accesstrade (affiliate marketing), and Viva Group/Xanh SM (ride-hailing drivers). As of November 2025, Gmobile announced it is undergoing merger into another enterprise per government directive, representing the most consequential recent structural event.
