FAQ

What makes 1NCE IoT Lifetime Flat Unique? 

1NCE IoT Lifetime Flat was developed for one purpose; to quickly enable IoT users to connect their devices. A simple pricing proposition with a simple answer: 1NCE provides one IoT data plan only. A clear pricing model with a clear answer: 1NCE provides one global IoT data plan. It includes all the essential features IoT users need to get started - data allowance, SMS, a secure VPN channel, and seamless support for all major mobile standards such as 2G, 3G, 4G, LTE-M, and NB-IoT.   

Unlike traditional M2M cellular mobile tariff structures, 1NCE IoT Lifetime Flat data plan is specially designed for the requirements of IoT devices. No complex tariff structures, no monthly recurring charges, no hidden costs. With 1NCE IoT Lifetime Flat you get an IoT connectivity solution that includes all features for just 12 €.

What is an IoT SIM card? 

An IoT data SIM, or Internet of Things SIM, is a specialized subscriber identity module designed for IoT devices. It enables these devices to connect to cellular networks and transmit data over the internet. IoT SIMs are optimized for low-power consumption, small data packets, and often operate on dedicated IoT networks.  

How much does an IoT SIM card cost? 

The cost of an IoT SIM card can vary depending on several factors, including the data plan you choose, the length of your commitment, and the specific provider. Some providers offer options with a fixed monthly fee that includes the SIM card and a data allowance. Others might have a one-time cost for the SIM card itself, with data billed separately. 1NCE offers Lifetime Flat which means an IoT SIM Plan includes 10 years of service for 12 € only. Detailed price list here.   

What is an IoT SIM plan? 

An IoT cellular plan is a data plan designed specifically for IoT devices. These data SIM plans typically offer smaller data allowances compared to phone plans, as IoT devices usually transmit smaller amounts of data like sensor readings or status updates. They might also come with features like remote SIM management or multi-network connectivity. 

What happens if my device uses more than the included 500MB of data? 

You can top up easily via the customer portal with an additional 10€ IoT data package (500MB + 250 SMS). 

Are there any hidden fees or monthly charges with 1NCE IoT Lifetime Flat? 

No. The 12 € one-time fee covers device lifetime. There are no monthly costs or roaming fees in covered countries. 

Can I top up my data volume after the initial purchase? 

Yes, flexible top-up options are available manually or automatically. 

How does 1NCE’s pricing compare to Twilio or Hologram for IoT projects? 

1NCE offers a predictable Lifetime Flat, unlike monthly payment models from other providers. This means easily scaled and cost predicted. 

Is 1NCE IoT Lifetime Flat suitable for high-bandwidth applications like video streaming? 

1NCE IoT Lifetime Flat is designed for IoT sensor data, telemetry, and low-to-medium bandwidth applications. However, we offer a High Data IoT feature for high-bandwidth applications. 

What devices are compatible with the 1NCE SIM? 

Any IoT device that supports 2G, 3G, 4G, LTE-M, or NB-IoT standards can be used. 

What's the difference between IoT and eSIM?  

An IoT SIM can come in different formats like for example any phone card SIM. An eSIM (embedded SIM) is a form factor or format of an IoT SIM (MFF2), a tiny chip already soldered onto the device itself. Both achieve the same goal of providing cellular network connectivity, but eSIM offers a smaller form factor and easier device management. However, eSIM availability might be limited depending on the device model.
