Scarlet was a Dutch-Belgian triple play telecommunications company between 1992 and 2022. Originally founded in the Netherlands, it became active in Belgium in 1997 and part of the Proximus Group since February 2008.

Netherlands

Scarlet was established in The Netherlands in 1992 as an independent ISP and telephony provider. It was acquired by Belgacom Group in 2008. It was rebranded Stipte ('Punctual' in Dutch) after a management buy-out in June 2014. From then on, Belgacom permanently divested its Dutch operations. Stipte was acquired by Fiber Netherlands in 2016.

Belgium

The company has been active in Belgium since 1997 as an independent ISP and telephony provider. In 2002, the company bought its competitor KPN Belgium. In 2003, it acquired Planet Internet Belgium and, at the end of 2004, Tiscali Belgium as well.

On 15 February 2008 Belgian telecom giant Belgacom Group (from 2014 Proximus) announced the acquisition of Scarlet. Starting in 2011, the Dutch and Belgian branches of Scarlet were split and the Dutch operations divested in June 2014.

On 1 October 2022 Scarlet Belgium SA was fully acquired by its parent company and ceased to exist as a separate company. Scarlet is integrated as a trademark into Proximus SA under public law.
