1GLOBAL eSIM for businesses worldwide
Discovering eSIMs
What is an eSIM
eSIM stands for embedded SIM. Unlike traditional SIM cards, which are physical cards inserted into a device, an eSIM is embedded directly into a device's hardware and can be reprogrammed remotely. This compact chip is made to handle the same functions as a traditional SIM card, including storing carrier profiles and managing network connections, but it does so without the need for a physical card.

Discovering eSIMs
How do eSIMs work
An eSIM operates by storing multiple carrier profiles securely on a single chip. When a user or device needs to switch carriers or plans the eSIM can be remotely updated over-the-air (OTA). This eliminates the need for physical SIM swaps for greater flexibility and convenience.
