Report Description
eSIM Market Outlook 2031
The global eSIM market size was valued at USD 7960.86 Million in 2022 and is expected to reach USD 16589.28 Million by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 8.5% during the forecast period, 2023–2031. The growth of the market is attributed to the rising number of Internet of Things (IoT) connected devices in various end-use verticals such as automotive, consumer electronics, and energy and utilities.
eSIM crad is a hardware chipset that is installed in a cellular phone where mobile network operators (MNOs) store their data through radio signals. The size of eSIM is smaller than a Nano sim and is reprogrammed by a software. An e-sim card provides all services that traditional SIM cards provides to the user.
Additionally, eSIM offers various benefits such as supporting multiple mobile carriers, making the subscription management easier for the device end-user. It also eliminates the need for handling several physical SIM cards by the end-user.
Increasing adoption of wireless cellular-based solution among different end-use verticals is due to the features of eSIM technology that provides security, reliability, and cost-efficient cellular connectivity for IoT/M2M applications.
eSIM technology enables secure Machine-to-Machine communication, thereby innovating the connected ecosystem. eSIMs are directly soldered to the circuit, thereby ensuring their physical security, thus making it impossible to remove the SIM for the device for misuse.
eSIM Market Drivers, Restraints, Trends, and Opportunities
- Increasing number of M2M connections globally is driving the market growth.
- Rising adoption of eSIMs in M2M applications such as connected cars, retail POS, and smart meters is anticipated to boost the growth of the market.
- eSIM requires less space in M2M devices, thus increasing its adoption in M2M applications.
- Lack of technological awareness among end-users and smaller number of MNOs supporting eSIM technology are restraining the market growth.
- Absence of technical support in many countries can the adoption of eSIM technology among telecom carriers. For instance, Apple Inc. has announced the launch of different models of iPhones having preinstalled eSIM in it. However, in countries such as India and Japan, all carriers are not supporting eSIM technology, thus affecting the market growth
- An eSIM collects and stores the data of MNOs in an in-built software of the device that is prone to various security hacks. Additionally, it operates through multiple MNOs and physical platforms, which exposes it to the risks of the virtual environment. Thus, such factors can impede the market growth.
- The emergence of COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected the global eSIM market. Various government restrictions to control spread of the disease has resulted in supply chain disruptions.
- eSIM removes the inconvenience of changing service providers. Additionally, it leads to operational efficiency and provision of secure environment. The latest embedded SIM cards offer guaranteed profile interoperability, thereby spurring the growth of global e-sim industry.
