In what it considers another major stride towards delivering powerful digital experiences to its customers, Digicel has indicated that it is prepared to support eSIM-enabled (Electronic SIM) devices, beginning December 2022.

The announcement comes on the second anniversary since Digicel branded itself an all out digital
operator on October 20, 2020.

The announcement gives customers, including those intending to get the e-SIM-only iPhone 14, more time to plan their purchases in order to enjoy a full-fledged digital experience.

Ahead of the December eSIM rollout, Digicel said customers can also purchase dual SIM (eSIM and physical SIM) versions of the iPhone 14 and connect immediately to the Digicel network using their existing SIM.

Currently, more than 99 per cent of smartphones work with a physical SIM, even if they also have eSIM capability.

An eSIM is a digital version of the physical SIM card that customers now use to connect to the Digicel network via smartphones, tablets, or other IoT devices, and enjoy the fastest data speeds and superior LTE coverage. It is embedded into the device for easy setup and out-of-the-box use that ensures seamless connectivity to the Digicel network in seconds.
