Ericsson claims that it is introducing an industry first entitlement server solution for on-device eSIM subscription activation without QR-codes for smartphones – starting with Samsung Galaxy S20 and Galaxy Z Flip.
The Ericsson solution enables consumers to remotely activate and manage their eSIM-enabled smartphone with just a few clicks. Together with the Ericsson eSIM solution, launched in January 2020, service providers can enhance their customers’ digital experience through fully automated eSIM subscription management.
Ericsson’s unique eSIM solution is comprised of the Ericsson Secure Entitlement Server and the Ericsson eSIM manager (SM-DP+ server, Subscription Management Data Provisioning). The Ericsson Secure Entitlement Server enables on-device eSIM subscription activation for smartphones without using QR codes while the Ericsson eSIM Manager, provides fully automated device and subscription orchestration. The solution is interoperable with smartphones and other devices.
Ericsson claims that it is in the process of deploying the solution with several service providers.
