This means maximum flexibility, reliability and easy scalability for anyone developing or using smart payment solutions.
As LTE backup, for vending machines, digital price tags, the connection from the inventory management system or or - our M2M and IoT SIM cards are already successfully used by many well-known retailers and retail chains in their solutions and IoT applications.
M2M SIM cards enable stable and secure wireless communication for a wide range of retail applications. They ensure that payment terminals, digital displays, remote maintenance systems and IoT devices are networked at all times - regardless of location or fixed internet connections.
Whether for contactless payment, fill level messages or LTE fallback - M2M SIMs guarantee reliable data transmission and ensure smooth operation in stores, vending machines or mobile points of sale.
Whether for payment terminals, the temporary sales stand at the strawberry field or vending machines set up around the world: Our M2M SIM offers access to the strongest local network for all retail applications anytime and anywhere, both at home and abroad. In border regions, the networks of neighboring countries are also taken into account to guarantee even better coverage.
