The subject matter is genuinely fascinating, and as real-world experience demonstrates, it keeps growing in significance and stays pertinent. We will share practical instances that we, as a company engaged in integration, have come across, and we’ll examine pricing.

The fintech and banking sectors heavily depend on smooth communication and dependable connectivity to provide efficient financial services.

Every service provider is greatly interested in expanding its customer base while simultaneously reducing retention costs and increasing customer loyalty. By broadening its range of services, which includes partner integrations, a provider offers its clients the chance to access a variety of services through one channel.

eSIM is an innovative technology that is gaining traction in the telecommunications industry, while the financial sector is currently in the process of considering and evaluating its benefits. However, it presents an excellent opportunity for bank customers to remain connected anywhere in the world without limitations or excessive costs. Integrating with an eSIM provider offers several advantages for a financial institution, such as increased customer engagement with the banking brand and services, enhanced competitiveness, and higher average purchase amounts.

While travelling globally, bank clients can conveniently use their banking applications on the go, thanks to digital SIM cards activated in their smartphones through the app. This eliminates the need to purchase local SIM cards in each new country, search for unsecured Wi-Fi spots, or pay extra for roaming services from their home operators. By utilizing an eSIM card, they can choose from various local mobile providers. The partner provides a global eSIM card usable in 125 countries, offering affordable prices and a seamless, reliable internet connection.

Regarding its partnership programs, companies offer customized white-label solutions to fintech companies so they can offer telecom services to their clients. In a nutshell, the company sells data traffic to its non-telecom partner for wholesale tariffs. This partnership model provides a company with the opportunity to resell GBs of internet traffic to its clients with a minimum 30% margin.

Pay as You Go Data Plan for Cost Optimization

Let’s delve into the example of an e-sim provider and its pricing plan. The e-sim provider offers various data plans, depending on the data traffic volume and duration of plan usage. However, the most efficient option is the universal Pay as You Go plan, which provides flexibility and cost optimization for data usage in the fintech and banking industries.

The key features of this plan include:

Cost Control: The Pay as You Go plan allows users to effectively monitor and manage their data usage, ensuring they only pay for the data they consume. This is especially beneficial for individuals who travel frequently, as it helps them avoid excessive roaming charges.

Seamless Connectivity: With the Pay as You Go plan, financial professionals can enjoy uninterrupted data connectivity in 125 countries. This proves particularly advantageous for people who frequently travel for business, ensuring they stay connected at all times and can access critical financial systems and services.

Flexibility: Pay as You Go offers the flexibility to activate or deactivate the data plan as needed. Financial professionals can easily adjust their data usage based on project requirements, travel schedules, or other business needs. The ability to tailor the data plan ensures maximum efficiency and cost savings.

The app’s Additional Product Features

  • Dual SIM Functionality: eSIM technology enables devices to have dual SIM functionality, allowing users to have two separate lines from different cellular providers on a single device. This is particularly useful for individuals who wish to keep personal and business communications separate, providing better work-life balance and efficient management of client interactions.
  • Secure Connectivity: the app ensures the security of virtual SIM cards’ credentials, protecting sensitive financial information from physical SIM card theft or cloning. The embedded chip securely stores the SIM credentials, providing an additional layer of protection.
  • Easy Activation and Switching: simplifies the activation and switching process for eSIMs. Users can activate their digital SIM cards during device setup or later add or transfer an eSIM using various methods.
