History
In August 2000, Samwer brothers founded Mobile Media AG. In October 2000, the company was renamed to Jamba! AG.

In May 2004, the US telecommunication and Internet service provider, VeriSign bought Jamba! and in November 2004 the corporate form of the company was changed from an AG to a GmbH. The company continued to trade as Jamba! GmbH. Marc and Oliver Samwer remained as Managing Directors until November 2005.

In 2006, VeriSign sold 51% of its Jamba! shares to News Corporation and during 2008 News Corp. acquired the remaining shares. After News Corporation completely acquired the company in 2008, it traded as Fox Mobile Distribution GmbH.

In December 2010, News Corporation sold Fox Mobile Group, which included iLove and Lorena Medienagentur GmbH, to an investor firm Jesta Group. After the sale, the company traded as Jesta Digital GmbH.

On 16 December 2013, it was announced that freenet Cityline GmbH, a subsidiary of freenet AG, would acquire Jesta Digital. The acquisition was completed on 15 January 2014 and the company was renamed freenet digital GmbH.
