Embedded Connectivity: Make Your Product Connected by Design

Ship products where connectivity is a built-in feature — provisioned by API, powered by SGP.32 eSIM, and billed however your business model needs.

What is embedded connectivity?

Embedded connectivity means cellular service built directly into a product — hardware or software — so it works out of the box without the customer arranging their own data plan. Atomic Mobile provides the APIs, eSIM provisioning, network access, and billing infrastructure to make connectivity a native product feature.

The problem: 'bring your own connectivity' breaks products

Products that depend on the customer to supply connectivity — insert a SIM, join Wi-Fi, tether a phone — inherit every failure of that arrangement: setup friction, support tickets, dead devices in the field, and a customer experience you don't control. For many connected products, connectivity gaps are the number one driver of returns and churn.

Connectivity as a native feature

With Atomic Mobile, your product ships connected. SGP.32 eSIM profiles are provisioned during manufacturing or on first boot; your backend controls the connectivity lifecycle through APIs; and usage flows into whatever commercial model fits — bundled into the product price, sold as a subscription tier, or metered per use. The customer never thinks about connectivity, which is exactly the point.

  • Connectivity APIs: provision, activate, throttle, and monitor from your backend
  • SGP.32 eSIM for factory or first-boot provisioning with no user setup
  • Flexible commercial models: bundled, subscription, or usage-based
  • Global multi-carrier coverage so one product SKU works across markets
  • UsageIQ data to correlate connectivity behavior with product analytics

From connected hardware to connected software

Embedded connectivity isn't only for devices. Software platforms embed wireless too — a travel app issuing data plans, a workforce platform bundling lines, a marketplace adding connectivity to its offering. Atomic's APIs make connectivity a composable service any product team can build with, the way payments and messaging became API products a decade ago.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is embedded connectivity?

Embedded connectivity is cellular service integrated directly into a product, so it connects out of the box without the customer supplying a SIM or data plan. It's delivered through eSIM provisioning and connectivity APIs, with the connectivity cost built into the product's business model.

How do products get connectivity without user setup?

Using SGP.32 eSIM, connectivity profiles are provisioned onto the device at manufacturing or downloaded automatically on first boot. The product's backend manages activation through APIs — the end customer never configures anything.

How is embedded connectivity billed?

However your business model requires: connectivity can be bundled into the product price, included in a subscription tier, or metered by usage. Atomic Mobile's billing infrastructure supports each model, and usage data via UsageIQ lets you price with real consumption economics.
