Founded in 2009 and headquartered in Gatineau, Canada, AffinityClick, Inc. operates in the mobile communication sector.


The company's founders, Justin Shimoon and Timo Gläßer, have a background in technology and entrepreneurship, with Justin Shimoon being the current CEO.

45 mn. AffinityClick specializes in mobile communication applications designed to enhance connectivity for individuals and businesses. Their core offerings include Hushed and aloSIM. Hushed is a top-grossing app that facilitates secure and private communication through Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), allowing users to make calls and send messages affordably worldwide.


This application particularly targets users who require privacy and flexibility in their communications. aloSIM, on the other hand, provides a seamless eSIM experience for global roaming, delivering instant and reliable mobile connectivity without the hassle of traditional SIM cards. Both products cater to a diverse clientele, including travelers and remote workers, and are primarily marketed in North America, Europe, and other regions where mobile connectivity solutions are essential for international communication. AffinityClick generates revenue through subscription-based models associated with its flagship products, Hushed and aloSIM.


Customers typically subscribe to Hushed for a variety of calling and messaging plans, which cater to their specific communication needs, while aloSIM offers users flexible pricing for eSIM data packages suitable for global travel. Transactions are conducted directly with consumers, allowing users to select from various pricing tiers based on their usage requirements. This direct-to-consumer approach not only enhances customer engagement but also establishes a recurring revenue stream as users renew their subscriptions or purchase additional data packages for their travels. The company’s structured pricing plans are strategically designed to accommodate both occasional users and frequent travelers, ensuring that all segments of their market are effectively served.


AffinityClick plans to leverage its recent funding of USD 0. 45 mn raised in February 2014 to enhance its product offerings and expand its market reach. The company is focusing on developing new features for Hushed and aloSIM, aiming to launch these innovations within the next year. Additionally, AffinityClick is looking to penetrate new markets in Asia and South America by the end of 2025, targeting regions with growing demand for mobile communication solutions.


The funding will be utilized to support product development and marketing efforts to facilitate these expansions.
