SETAR N.V., is the privatised full telecommunications service provider for the island of Aruba. The services provided by SETAR include: telephone, internet and GSM-related wireless services. SETAR also owns Telearuba. SETAR has been in operation on Aruba for over 10 years. Annual sales are offered by SETAR, especially during the holidays.^[1]

With the rapid global emergence of telecommunications technology, SETAR installed its first digital telephone systems and a satellite ground station on the Hooiberg in 1989. This investment allowed Aruba to communicate directly via satellite with the rest of the world. A local digital exchange was set up between 1990 and 1991 and a second satellite ground station was installed in 1993 to support satellite communications and the cellular network. The exchanges are connected by fiber optic cable.
