Our story

Three decades in international telecoms.

The business began in 1996 as Capital City Service Corp. in Ireland. In 2003 the UK company — Capital City Service Limited — was established in Watford, today the home of our wholesale voice and messaging operations. From a single transit route to more than 400 direct interconnections, the idea has never changed: make business communication as simple and reliable as chatting with a friend.

Through direct access to mobile, fixed and transit operators worldwide, we deliver the full range of VoIP and messaging channels — with a relentless focus on quality of service. More recently we co-founded Septoo, bringing that same carrier-grade backbone to a new generation of MVNOs.

CCS is founder-led, with more than 30 years in international telecoms behind it and a team that averages over 10 years in the industry — depth you can hear in how we route, monitor and support every connection.

What we do

Four ways operators and brands connect with us.

Network & technology

Carrier-grade by design.

Our core network runs on carrier-grade soft-switches with its primary hub in Frankfurt, Germany — engineered for five-nines availability and the highest quality of service. A dedicated team of managers and analysts in every region gives partners access to virtually any operator, anywhere on the planet.

We are a member of the GSMA and the ITU-T, and a registered UK company — all publicly verifiable: GSMA membership, ITU-T membership and our Companies House record.

How we work

What partners can count on.

Reliability first

Five-nines uptime, redundant routes and round-the-clock monitoring. Your traffic keeps flowing.

Genuine global reach

400+ direct interconnections across 190+ countries — not a chain of resellers.

Long-term partnership

Dedicated regional managers and transparent commercials, built for the long run.

What we stand for

Values that shape every route.

Own the network, own the outcome

We run our own core and direct interconnections — not a chain of resellers. The quality, and the accountability, stop with us.

Compliance before traffic

Clean routing protects your subscribers and your licence. We'd rather turn grey traffic away than put a partner's network at risk.

Engineered for the worst day

Five-nines isn't a slogan — it's how we design, monitor and test, because operators route their reputation through us.

A partner you can actually reach

Straight answers, fair commercials and an account team that picks up the phone — for the long term, not just the first deal.

Let's build your next connection.
