Redefining eUICC Onboarding

Discover how Motive and STMicroelectronics are redefining eUICC onboarding with SGP.32—using out-of-band device management, flyweight clients, and open standards to simplify IoT profile downloads, remove vendor lock-in, and give operators real structural advantage.

Transform IoT eSIM Onboarding & Break Vendor Lock-In

IoT growth is exploding, but eUICC onboarding is still fragmented and vertically locked: multiple onboarding techniques, factory constraints, proprietary stacks, and limited options for constrained devices. Motive’s approach with SGP.32 introduces an out-of-band, standards-based model that keeps existing EIM and SM-DP+ flows intact—while adding a new layer of flexibility through IPA D / IPAe and device management. The result: operators gain competition and choice, easier OEM integration, and a horizontal ecosystem instead of siloed, vendor-specific stacks.

Key Takeaways

  • Learn how to use SGP.32 to unlock new onboarding models.

  • Leverage out-of-band device management as a structural advantage.

  • Support constrained devices with a “flyweight” DM client.

  • Avoid vertical vendor lock-in and enable a horizontal ecosystem.
