5G services and coverage

QCell’s 5G services are currently available in select locations, including Banjul, Kairaba Avenue, Bakau-Fajara, Senegambia, and Brusubi Turntable. As the service is gradually rolled out, users outside these areas will automatically switch to the next best available network, 4G LTE.

The company offers two primary 5G services: 5G Fixed Services and 5G Mobile Services. The Fixed Services are designed for institutions and homes, utilising Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) or Mifi devices to deliver high-speed internet. For 5G Mobile Services, customers can enjoy the enhanced speeds on their existing voice SIM cards, provided they request activation at a QCell outlet.

QCell’s legacy of Innovation

QCell’s journey is marked by a series of firsts in The Gambia’s telecom sector. Established in 2009 by Gambian entrepreneur Muhammed Jah, QCell quickly became the country’s first provider of 3G mobile internet, followed by the introduction of 4G WiMax internet, and eventually, 4G+ mobile internet in 2017. The company’s philosophy, “Sunu Buss,” meaning “ours” in Wolof, reflects its deep-rooted commitment to serving the Gambian community and advancing the nation’s digital infrastructure.

Beyond mobile services, QCell is also The Gambia’s leading ISP, offering broadband internet services and advanced VPN solutions to a wide range of clients, including government agencies, NGOs, corporate institutions, and diplomatic missions.
