CASE STUDY
How 1GLOBAL’s eSIM solution brings flexible, digital mobile connectivity to N26 customers
N26 is the first fully, 100% mobile bank to be fully licensed in Germany. Its innovative, digital-first ethos has made managing money on-the-go a much simpler than ever before. Since its founding in 2013, the neobank has disrupted the banking sector and re-shaped expectations of what is possible in digital banking, delivering convenience, security and new investment and savings possibilities to its five million and growing customer base.
As N26 has expanded into more than 24 countries in Europe, it has continuously sought to add new features and services that improve the customer experience. Its latest value-add sees the bank partner with 1GLOBAL to seamlessly integrate our eSIM technology into the N26 app.
This offering allows N26 users to access eSIM connectivity for affordable mobile data with just a few simple taps of their phone. Called N26 SIM, it has been designed for customers who value maximum flexibility and attractive pricing.
Users can simply digitally activate their mobile plans on a high-speed 5G network, with no physical SIM card required, no paperwork, and need to visit a store.
N26 offers three different mobile plans to its customers in Germany, all of which come with unlimited national calls and text messages, and also free EU and EEA roaming.
Analysis and Benefits
Once activated, N26 customers have a wealth of additional features at their fingertips. They can choose to port in their existing number or get a new mobile number from N26. Customers also have full visibility and control over their data usage, can switch between multiple numbers and active mobile plans on a single device, and can cancel their plan with just a month’s notice.
These features make N26 SIM an ideal mobile plan for customers who wish to stay flexible while traveling, or simply want to keep work and personal connections separate – flexibly, affordably, and all from a single mobile device.
The successful integration of 1GLOBAL eSIM solutions into N26 SIM promises to bolster further the N26 customer experience, providing each user with tangible benefits, and compelling customers to stay within the N26 app for longer, boosting customer loyalty and retention.
How 1GLOBAL Embedded Telco helps fintech companies
Grow revenue
User retention is a key driver of revenue growth for mobile applications. By keeping users engaged, businesses not only encourage recurring use but also unlock steady revenue streams through subscriptions and in-app transactions.
Prioritizing retention is economically sound: a 5% increase in user retention can lead to a staggering 95% increase in profits. Offering eSIMs as an additional product can further enhance retention by providing users with seamless global connectivity, making your app an indispensable tool for their daily needs.
This added value not only keeps users active but also boosts long-term revenue, proving that retaining customers can be just as, if not more, profitable than acquiring new ones.
