Nigerian broadband service provider Swift Networks has launched Red Cheetah, a free broadband Wi-Fi service, in Lagos and subsequently plans to expand across Nigeria and Africa.
According to the company, they’ve been working on Red cheetah for the past 2 years and now, it’s ready for the public. To be able to offer this service free of charge, Swift Networks is partnering with brands to serve ads to users on the Red Cheetah platform. This means that to keep browsing free, users are obliged to watch ads during their session.
Red Cheetah Data Cap
