Freenet AG is a Germany-based telecommunications and digital services provider offering a broad portfolio of consumer and business solutions. The company specializes in distributing mobile communications services, including contract and prepaid offerings from major network operators, as well as providing broadband internet access, cable and IPTV television, and related hardware such as routers and set-top boxes. Through its digital lifestyle segment, Freenet AG also delivers value-added services and digital content, ranging from music and video streaming to online gaming and e-books.
In its mobile communications division, Freenet AG acts as a sales and service partner for leading German network operators, managing customer acquisition, billing, and technical support. The company’s multi-play business bundles high-speed DSL and cable connections with television services under branded packages. Beyond consumer offerings, Freenet AG’s digital business solutions arm serves corporate clients with IT infrastructure, managed services, cloud hosting, cybersecurity solutions and hardware procurement, aiming to support digital transformation projects in small and medium-sized enterprises.
Freenet traces its roots to the launch of the freenet.de internet portal in 1999 and was established in its current form as Freenet AG in 2007 following a corporate spin-off. A landmark event in the company’s history was the 2015 acquisition of Mobilcom-Debitel, one of Germany’s largest mobile service providers, which expanded Freenet’s customer base and strengthened its position in the mobile market. Since then, Freenet AG has continued to evolve its service offerings and invest in next-generation network partnerships.
Headquartered in Büdelsdorf, Germany, Freenet AG serves both residential and business customers across the country. The company is overseen by a management board led by CEO Christoph Vilanek, under whose guidance Freenet has focused on integrating its telecom and digital media activities while pursuing strategic partnerships and acquisitions to drive growth in the German market.
