Digi alcanza los 3 millones de clientes de fibra

Digi, a Romanian telecommunications group, has reached 3 million customers of fiber broadband, marking its position as the third-largest provider in Spain, behind Orange and Telefónica. This achievement, announced on Tuesday, comes after Digi had already been identified as the second-largest operator in the nation by broadband customers, according to CNMC data released last June.

The company's growth in fiber broadband customers has been significant, with a multiplication of eight over the past five years and an increase of more than 141% in the last three years. Its SMART fiber network now serves 14.84 million homes, totaling 12 million active services as of September. Digi has invested 205 million euros in the first half of 2026, 36% more than a year prior, primarily for the deployment of fiber-optic and its own mobile network.

The operator is known for offering the lowest prices in the market, with fiber broadband starting at just 10 euros per month, and never providing temporary promotions, as its prices remain constant. Digi's CEO, Marius Varzaru, emphasized that reaching over 3 million broadband customers reaffirms the company's mission to make connectivity possible for all in Spain, offering high-tech and high-quality services at competitive prices, and recognizing the trust placed in them by their customers.

With over 11,900 employees in Spain, Digi is now the second-largest employer, as it conducts all business activities directly with its own workforce. The 3 million fiber broadband customers figure for Digi cannot be directly compared to the same period from its major rivals due to the latest public figures being from the second quarter.

In June, Masorange led the market with 7.15 million broadband customers, of which 6.77 million were fiber and 0.377 million were from other technologies, while Telefónica had 6.228 million broadband subscribers. Vodafone España maintained a portfolio of 2.59 million customers as of June. The rivals' broadband revenue is significantly higher than Digi's, given their higher prices.

So far this year, Digi has added 417,000 new fiber customers, while Telefónica added 66,000 in the first half, Orange added 6,000, and Vodafone added only 1,000. Digi Spain went public on July 16 with a placement price of 5.6 euros per share. Yesterday, two months later, it closed at 6.76 euros, up 1.58% from the July listing price, representing a 20.7% increase.
