BUSINESS eSIMs EXPLAINED

What is a business eSIM?

A business eSIM is a digital SIM embedded in a mobile device, allowing businesses to manage multiple devices remotely. It offers flexible, scalable connectivity for employees, supporting business needs like BYOD initiatives, remote work, and international communication, with tailored data and voice plans.

How a business eSIM differs from a consumer one

Unlike consumer eSIMs, which are typically sold directly to individual users, business eSIMs are designed for procurement and management via a centralised portal.

With PiPcall’s portal, administrators can easily procure and deploy eSIMs for their workforce, ensuring immediate mobile connectivity without the need for physical SIM cards, offering a flexible, scalable solution for business communication.

Frequently asked questions

This is a relatively common error that might occur during installation of your eSIM. In most cases simply resetting your network settings will resolve this. With these steps you can do it easily by yourself. Put your iPhone in airplane mode. Leave it for about five to ten seconds, then turn off airplane mode. Restart your iPhone. Once your device reboots, go to cellular settings and reset your mobile network settings. Depending on the iPhone you have, the location of your network settings may appear in the following ways: “General” > “Reset” > “Reset NetworkSettings” “General” > “Transfer or Reset iPhone”> “Reset” > “Reset Network Settings” When you complete these steps you should have your network correctly configured.

The same eSIM cannot be installed on many devices. Your eSIM can be installed on only one device, and reinstallation depends on the carrier and plan.

As standard PiPcall technology requires a connecting local rate call to our telephony platform when an outbound call is made, this may use personal minutes, however if you enable Ring-me-back from the settings then our service will instead ring you to initiate the call. The call itself, regardless of the destination is always charged back to the business and never the user.
