Prepaid eSIM and eSIM: Everything you need to know

A prepaid eSIM is a SIM card that is embedded in the mobile phone at the factory and is used in combination with prepayment. Just like the classic physical prepaid card, a prepaid eSIM must first be topped up with credit so that you can use it to make mobile calls, browse the internet and send and receive messages.

eSIM technology has experienced a real boom in recent years. An increasing number of mobile devices – from smartphones to smartwatches and tablets – are equipped with an eSIM. This is not only due to space savings, but also to user-friendliness and the growing demand for digital solutions. Travellers and individuals who frequently change mobile phone providers in particular benefit from the flexibility of the eSIM. Companies and business customers who want to manage multiple phone numbers on one device also appreciate the advantages of the eSIM.

Yes, a prepaid eSIM is as secure as a traditional physical SIM card. The eSIM stores your mobile data in a secure area of the device. The connection to mobile networks is established using the same encryption protocols as a physical SIM card. Since the eSIM is permanently integrated into the device, there is no risk of it being lost or stolen. In addition, the eSIM can be quickly deactivated if the phone is lost. This provides additional protection against unauthorised use of the SIM by third parties.

 

To further increase the security of a device, a smartphone should always be protected with a password, PIN or biometric lock (e.g. fingerprint or facial recognition).

Yes, many modern smartphones and mobile devices support the simultaneous use of multiple SIMs. This is especially useful if, for example, you want to manage different tariffs on one device. For example, you can use

• one eSIM for private calls only, and
•  another SIM for business purposes.

Managing multiple SIMs is done via your device's mobile service settings. You can easily switch between the different active profiles.

Yes, eSIM technology is not limited to smartphones. Tablets, smartwatches and even some laptops now support eSIMs. The eSIM is particularly advantageous for smartwatches, because it eliminates the need to carry a physical SIM card. This means you can make calls or receive messages while on the go without having to carry a mobile phone with you. Activating the eSIM on such devices is usually done in the same way as on a smartphone. You scan a QR code or follow the instructions provided by the mobile phone provider. It should be noted that some manufacturers restrict the choice of providers. If you want to be on the safe side, you should check with the manufacturer in advance which mobile phone providers are supported by your smartwatch.
