"Juniper Research's eSIMs and iSIMs market 2025-2030 report predicted that the number of IoT devices using eSIMs will grow by 30% in 2026, rising from 1.2 billion in 2025. Looking at drivers for the market, Juniper Research highlighted the GSMA's eSIM IoT Architecture and Requirements SGP.32 specification, launched in 2025. This is the global mobile trade association's eSIM standard for IoT that enables scalable, server‑driven remote SIM provisioning."
"Yet despite its optimism, Juniper noted several challenges for eSIM platforms, the biggest of which is pivoting away from pull models (in which the device pulls a single profile to it) to a push model where profiles are pushed to multiple devices at the same time. Juniper Research urges these platforms to develop their own push model to serve enterprise eSIM users as adoption among enterprise IoT users proliferates."
The eSIM market has accelerated recently, with research confirming growing IoT adoption and predicting significant expansion in 2026. IoT eSIM connections are projected to increase 30% in 2026, rising from 1.2 billion in 2025. The GSMA's SGP.32 specification, launched in 2025, enables scalable server-driven remote SIM provisioning and offers bulk activation, lower operational costs, and easier provider switching. Connected logistics, oil and gas, and smart street lighting are expected to be the fastest-growing IoT eSIM sectors in 2026, together adding about 75 million connections. Major challenges include shifting platforms from pull to push provisioning models for enterprise deployments.
