The eSIM (embedded SIM) is the evolution of the current physical SIM, completely digital, and allows you to use a mobile line simply by framing the QR Code provided with the smartphone camera. It has an unlimited life and you can transfer it to a new smartphone using the QR Code.
From today, November 22, 2023, customers will be able to activate a new number and immediately start browsing, making, and receiving calls, or start the portability process of the number already in use with simple steps. Simply select the chosen offer, authenticate online with the SPID after receiving the QR Code via email, and configure the eSIM on your smartphone by scanning the QR Code.
The SPID digital identity can also be used to easily activate a new line, carry out number portability, or purchase a physical SIM without having to resort to video identification. The service will subsequently also be extended to other digital identities, such as the Electronic Identity Card (CIE).
With the introduction of TIM’s eSIM, the purchasing experience is further simplified, resulting in complete safety and reducing the impact on the environment.
