RedButton is proud to celebrate the first anniversary of its Free WiFi product. The product was launched in order to enable business venues the ability to provide and offer free wireless internet services to its customers, a value add that is proving to be very successful.

Managing Director of RedButton, Mr. Jalal Ghiassi-Razavi, is quoted as saying that "This baby of ours has grown at a tremendous rate over the past year. The appetite of consumers for free wireless internet has shot through the roof. We are very proud of this product and its achievements and look forward to the growth into the next year. Happy Birthday Free WiFi."

One of the first establishments to use the product was the popular Depasco Café Bakery, on the corner of Buitensingel and Kloof streets in Cape Town. Phillip Brink, the owner, has said “Wi-Fi internet access is very much non-negotiable for any daytime coffee shop/restaurant operation. The biggest compliment I can give the RedButton team is that we rarely seem to speak them, meaning that the service is slick and virtually fault-free. And when I have needed some help, there’s always been someone on the end of the line to deal with it. Nice job!”
