Activate Wireless SIM cards activate automatically! – we like to keep things simple.
Unless specifically requested our Activate Wireless SIM cards are delivered in a “Test Ready” state. This allows a SIM to establish a data connection.
Once your device establishes a connection, the SIM is allowed to conduct up to 20KB of “Test Data” free of charge. Once your device has passed the 20KB limit it’s state will automatically move to “Activated”.
Note: During the time a SIM is in the “Test Ready” state, it is not billable.

Activate Wireless offer Group Data Plans only GROUP Data Plans – SIMs on a group plan effectively share data with other SIMs on the same plan, for example if you have 5 x 10MB SIM cards you have a “pool” of 50MB of data shared between your fleet. This way if you have devices that under-utilize their data allowance, devices that go over their allowance can borrow from the pool. NOTE: Once your devices have exceeded their “pool” allowance you will be charged excess usage per KB.

2.Public internet access with a dynamic public IP address – This allows your devices to utilise the public internet but also serves your device a publicly addressable IP address which can be used to contact the device in the field. NOTE: This service is not recommended as it can cause safety & stability issues and is purely subject to approval.
