Let your SIM card do the hard work for you
IoT SIM cards don’t have to be a one-trick pony – with Pod Group’s intelligent SIM applets you can add more functionality to your IoT solution without lifting a finger
Combine Pod’s custom connectivity with intelligent SIM applets deployed Over the Air (OTA)
Pod’s intelligent on-SIM apps solve specific issues related to deployment and provisioning.
Giving the SIM crypto-capabilities makes securing the connected device hassle free, while the ability to register itself on the network means that mass device rollouts are fast, simple and cost-cutting. Pod’s unique smart SIM applets save money and time and mean you can scale and deploy anywhere in the world.
Eliminate the hassle of manually provisioning and onboarding your SIM cards
SIM-based Zero Touch Provisioning application, for quick, simple device onboarding with no device or platform dependencies.
This innovative tool lets the SIM negotiate a trusted connection with your API upon first network registration. The SIM can also report its location and/or device identification. You can use this info to provision device settings and when the device is switched on, the SIM sends the profile to automatically onboard it on the platform.
Reduce complexity and increase scalability
Facilitate massive deployment of IoT devices globally. Having the tech on-SIM means that device modules can be simpler and more cost-effective at scale.
Reduce device manufacturing costs
Moving expensive cryptographic operations onto the SIM chipset means that security firmware development costs are significantly reduced.
Increase IoT Security with SIM-to-cloud encryption
The device telemetry data is encrypted with the SIM pre-shared keys. Only your Device Management platform will be able to decrypt it.
Applets conceived to get even more from your eSIM
The ultimate in remote control

Our IMEI Locker SIM applet makes your IoT deployment that much more secure.
Use the unique device identification number, IMEI, to establish management policies, and then authorize or ‘whitelist’ those IoT devices that have permission to register on the network.
Control Network Access
Control the list of authorized devices that can register on the network.
Prevent IoT SIM Removal
Prevent SIMs being used in personal devices and avoid bill shock from misuse.
Track Stolen SIM Cards
Real-time tracking of any IoT SIM card stolen from a connected device.
Update The Device Whitelist
Modify the whitelist at the point of order or when the SIM is in the field.
Control which networks your IoT SIM cards can (and can’t) connect to
Our FPLMN Watch SIM applet gives you the power to deny or permit access to specific networks.
The Forbidden PLMN (FPLMN) is a dynamic list of forbidden networks that is stored on your IoT SIM card. IoT devices are unable to connect to the networks on this list, which is useful especially when roaming through areas with lots of network interference, or when there is one preferred network. With the FPLMN Watch applet, you gain control over this list, giving you the ability to forbid or allow network access.
Prevent Devices Restricting Access To Open Networks
All networks will remain open, even if access is forbidden by your device.
Forbid Registration On Suspicious Networks
Mark any suspicious local networks as forbidden to deny access.
Update The List Of Forbidden Networks Remotely
Modify which networks appear on the forbidden list at any time.
