XPress Telecom is a wireless telecommunication operator in Jordan. It holds a digital trunking radio system license from the country's telecommunication regulatory body, the TRC; the technology used is Motorola's proprietary iDEN technology operated on the SMR-800 frequency band.^[1]

Its offering is mostly targeting the corporate market with an array of services needed in such sector including; professional radio service(also known as Push-To-Talk or PTT), regular mobile telephony and messaging services along with A-GPS based tracking services and wireless-data services. They do also offer prepaid service for the individual customers. ^[2]

XPress's sister company bravO! operates the same system in neighboring Saudi Arabia, one advantage of that is that customers of either network can place international push-to-talk calls, similar service is available between Sprint Nextel iDEN network subscribers and their counterparts in other countries such as Nextel in Mexico and Telus iDEN subscribers in Canada.^[3]
