Pelephone has finalized an agreement to acquire the cellular company Wecom for NIS 265 million. The deal was signed on Monday, contrary to earlier reports of a crisis. The acquisition is now contingent on approval from the Israel Competition Authority and the Ministry of Communications.

Additionally, Pelephone must reach an understanding with Cellcom regarding the use of Cellcom's antenna network, which Wecom currently utilizes. Wecom has experienced a negative financial trend, moving from a net profit of NIS 21 million in 2024 to a loss of nearly NIS 4 million in 2025. If the deal is completed, the combined entity of Pelephone and Wecom will have 3 million subscribers, compared to Cellcom's 3.7 million subscribers.
