The IoT SIM

Powering millions of connected devices

A full range of eSIMs built for scale, compliance, and always-on connectivity.

Our eSIM portfolio

First things first.
What’s an IoT SIM?

An IoT SIM card is a SIM specifically built for Internet of Things (IoT) and machine-to-machine (M2M) applications. Unlike standard consumer SIMs, IoT SIMs are designed for durability, remote management, and global connectivity. Key characteristics include:

Enables connectivity across hundreds of networks supporting all major cellular technologies (2G, 3G, 4G, LTE-M, NB-IoT, and 5G).
Supports remote SIM provisioning and profile updates over the air (OTA), eliminating the need for physical SIM swaps.
Contains multiple cellular provider identities, enabling automatic network switching for optimal coverage and compliance in different countries.
Offered in commercial and industrial grades, with industrial versions built to withstand extreme temperatures, vibration, and environmental stress.
Available as 2FF (Mini), 3FF (Micro), 4FF (Nano), and MFF2 (embedded, solderable) to fit a wide range of IoT devices.

So, what’s an eSIM?

While eSIM once referred only to embedded SIM chips soldered into devices, today it is more commonly used to describe any SIM (embedded or removable) that supports eUICC (Embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card) functionality.

eUICC is not about how a SIM looks or where it sits in your device, it’s a technology standard that enables remote SIM profile provisioning and management.

By supporting eUICC, eSIMs unlock key capabilities like remote profile updates, vendor flexibility, and simplified global deployments.

All emnify SIMs are eSIMs—no matter the form factor.

The benefits of eSIM for your business:

1. Provision SIMs remotely

Remotely provision and update SIM profiles over-the-air (OTA), eliminating the need to physically replace SIM cards when switching operators.

2. Futureproof your deployments

Easily gain access to the latest network technologies and adapt to changing regulations or coverage needs without hardware changes.

3. Simplify global certification and compliance

Meet local telecom regulations such as, mandated in-country connectivity without redesigning your hardware for each market.
