Orange Momentum is for larger companies, typically with over 10 employees. As communication between the staff is key to these customers Orange Momentum offers free calls and texts between sharers. The contract lengths for Orange Momentum have been set at 12, 24 and 36 months as companies of this size tend to have an annual buying cycle, and as a promotion for all customers joining on a 24 or 36 month contract before 31/07/2007, they can chose from either extra inclusive minutes or unlimited Orange to Orange calls each month. Orange Momentum offers the capacity for up to 400 sharers with a flat rate sharer fee of £12.50.

Business Everywhere
Business Everywhere offers flexible data pricing. Customers pay a fixed amount each month and in return receive competitive rates for mobile network data usage (GPRS, EDGE and 3G) and wifi hotspot data usage in the UK and abroad. In June three of the Business Everywhere plans were refreshed to offer customers more inclusive data, the changes were made to the Flexible Data 20, 25 and 65 plans. The way in which Orange communicate the Business Everywhere plans has changed to make it easier for customers to understand. Even though Orange offers Flexible Data Pricing, they recognise that most customers regard UK mobile network data as the most important. Therefore in future communications, Orange intend to include the maximum amount of data available if the plan was only used on the 3G/EDGE/GPRS network.
