TELMA

The country has one of the best telecom networks in Africa thanks to Telma, the main operator with over 70% of subscribers. Nearly 400 hotels throughout the island are equipped with fiber optics - see the map on telma.mg/hotel. To avoid changing the SIM of your smartphone, you can buy the Telma eSIM directly at the airport for 12 €. You can then top up your phone and Internet package in the store or at the retailers who can be spotted with their yellow parasol. To pay by phone, Mobile Banking is a practical and secure way - see Mvola.mg.
