What is eUicc?

eUICC stands for embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card, and is sometimes also referred to as eSIM. This technology makes it possible to wirelessly reprogram a mobile subscriber’s data without replacing the physical SIM card. This provides a flexible solution for devices that connect to mobile networks, especially useful in devices that are hard to reach or where a SIM card swap is impractical. The eUICC standard was developed under the banner of the GSMA, and is supported by mobile network operators worldwide.

What benefits does eUICC offer?

Implementing eUICC technology offers significant benefits, mainly in terms of flexibility and efficiency. Users can easily switch between network providers without having to change physical SIM cards, which is ideal for international travel or in industries where contracts are regularly reviewed, such as transportation and logistics. It also increases security because data can be remotely updated with the latest security protocols without physically accessing the device. In addition, using eUICC reduces operational costs by reducing the logistical and administrative burden of managing physical SIM cards.
