An eSIM is a SIM card that is embedded in a mobile device and can connect you to any operator offering eSIM services.
Furthermore, the eSIM works the same way as a traditional SIM card, but you don’t need a physical SIM card to use it. It is actually pre-installed in the device and you can activate it by installing the “eSIM profile” of a new operator.
Actually, it is an evolution of the physical SIM card. More and more smartphones, tablets and laptops are equipped with an eSIM card.

How does eSIM work ?
With an eSIM-compatible device, you can easily install an eSIM profile (provided by operators/carriers) to be able to buy an eSIM data plan when you need it, on the go. Plus you can use multiple operators and subscribe simultaneously several data plans to suit your needs: when travelling, working from home or remotely…
For example: with Ubigi, you can save up to 90% on roaming costs in comparison to your usual carrier, in 190 destinations. We also offer one-off and recurring data plans as alternatives to bad quality or unsecure Wi-Fi.
The eSIM is sometimes called by its technical name, eUICC (Embedded Universal Circuit Card) or virtual SIM.
Good to know: eSIM plays a major role in the Internet of Things (IoT) as the technology is already embedded in cars, wearables, home appliances, industrial machines…
The eSIM eliminates the logistical hassle of getting a physical SIM card. You won’t have to look for a store or wait for your SIM to be delivered by mail. No more looking for an ejector tool, or a paperclip to change SIMs!
eSIM is also ideal if you are a frequent traveler. You can stay connected, anywhere, anytime, no matter how often or how suddenly you change locations. eSIM makes traveling easier, especially for those regularly going back and forth between the two countries. Business travelers, or expats who often visit their home country for instance, can keep two lines and easily switch from their home-based operator to their eSIM carrier like Ubigi.
eSIM technology, used in Ubigi’s eSIM service, is all about mobile connectivity everywhere, anytime! eSIM brings you a lot of advantages compared to traditional physical SIM cards.
With an eSIM compatible mobile device, you can get immediate connectivity wherever you are. All you must do is receive your eSIM profile and you’ll get connected to the Internet within minutes. Once your eSIM profile has been installed on your device, it’s always available and ready to use.
