Sacramento, California — Plum Wireless, under the new ownership of Rivus Interactive Group, has announced the highly anticipated return of Global Push-to-Talk (PTT) services, marking the first major reintroduction of this technology since Nextel’s departure from the market.
Rivus Interactive Group, a powerhouse in the handheld gaming industry and creator of the record-breaking Rivus Cloud console, acquired Plum Wireless earlier this year in a landmark $1.1 billion deal. Since the acquisition, the company has been determined to restore PTT to the modern communications landscape, combining nostalgia for the fast, direct communication method with cutting-edge technology and nationwide reach.
Plum Wireless will officially launch with T-Mobile as its largest network partner for general mobile services while also deploying its own dedicated PTT network to ensure unmatched reliability and instant connectivity. This proprietary infrastructure is designed specifically for businesses, emergency services, logistics, and high-demand industries that rely on rapid, crystal-clear voice communication.
“Push-to-Talk has always been more than a feature—it’s a culture of instant connection,” said a Rivus Interactive Group spokesperson. “Since Nextel, no company has stepped in to truly fill that void. With Plum Wireless, we’re not just bringing it back—we’re making it faster, more secure, and available to a global audience.”
The new Plum Wireless PTT service will include modern enhancements such as real-time group calls, encrypted channels, global roaming capabilities, and integration with smartphones, tablets, and ruggedized professional devices.
Industry analysts are already speculating that Plum Wireless could become the gold standard for enterprise communication—just as Rivus Interactive has done in the gaming space. With its proven track record of market disruption, Rivus Interactive Group is poised to lead yet another revolution, this time in mobile voice communications.
