Since 2006

Changing the telecom world, putting the customer first.

Since Belsimpel was founded in 2006, we’ve seen how smart technology helps customers make the right choices. Since then, we’ve worked daily on our platform to make telecom accessible and simple for everyone, with a fair and transparent customer experience.

Belsimpel | Gomibo donates to Close the Gap: over 500 people supported in gaining access to the digital world

Bridging the digital divide

Access to the digital world is now crucial for full participation in society. Whether it’s booking an appointment to renew your passport, applying for a job, or making a bank transfer—almost everything is done digitally. Those without access to digital tools not only miss out on opportunities but may also struggle with basic tasks that many take for granted.

That’s why we proudly support Close the Gap, an international organisation dedicated to equal digital opportunities. Close the Gap collects decommissioned but functional IT equipment, such as laptops, tablets, and desktops, from companies and individuals. This equipment is then refurbished and provided to vulnerable groups in developing countries and communities with limited access to technology.

Colleague Melissa shares: “In recent years, I’ve become more conscious about how I live and wanted to do my part. When I got a new phone, I was looking for a good purpose for my old one. That’s when I saw the Close the Gap collection box at work and thought, ‘Perfect!’ It’s great to make someone else happy with it.”
