Introduction
Business travel might be bouncing back, but managing mobile connectivity for a team of globe-trotting employees? That’s still a major headache. From roaming charges to lost SIM cards to complex billing, keeping your staff connected across borders shouldn’t be this hard.

No more overspending, no more SIM swaps. Just seamless connectivity made for modern teams.

Why Business eSIM Management Matters
When your employees travel, they need secure, fast, and reliable data. But roaming bills can be unpredictable—and brutal. Some teams rely on local SIMs, which means dealing with paperwork, varying languages, and zero oversight.
Business eSIM management flips the script. With ZIM, you can:
Pre-assign data plans by employee or team
Monitor real-time usage across your fleet
Top up or revoke eSIMs remotely
Prevent surprise charges by setting usage caps
You get visibility, control, and accountability—all without chasing expense reports after every trip.
How ZIM’s Business Suite Works
ZIM’s Business Suite is a centralized eSIM management platform built for employers and operations teams. Here’s what it includes:
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Admin Dashboard | Manage all employee eSIMs from a single hub |
| Multi-Plan Management | Assign different plans per region or trip |
| Real-Time Usage Monitoring | Track MB/GB usage per user |
| Remote Activation | Send eSIMs to devices before or during travel |
| Secure Billing | One invoice, multiple users, local pricing |
It’s plug-and-play. No IT setup, no training needed—just sign in and get started.
The Cost of Poor Connectivity for Business Travelers
Let’s be real—dropping a call with a client or failing to access files in transit can cost you a deal. But beyond the business risk, there’s a financial one too. Here’s what companies are paying when they don’t use an eSIM solution:
| Problem | Cost Impact |
|---|---|
| Roaming Charges | $50–$200 per employee per trip |
| Lost Productivity | Missed meetings, delays |
| Poor Tracking | No visibility into usage or overspending |
| SIM Card Mismanagement | Replacements, logistics headaches |
ZIM eliminates all of these by giving you a predictable, scalable way to manage global data for your team.
Assigning and Tracking eSIMs with ZIM
Here’s how it works in practice:
Admin logs into the Business Suite dashboard
Selects a country or regional plan
Assigns the plan to a user by email or device ID
User receives setup instructions instantly via the ZIM app
Usage is tracked in real time
Need to make changes mid-trip? You can top up or pause service remotely—no calls to support, no delays. It’s enterprise-level control without enterprise-level complexity.
Use Cases: Who Benefits Most from ZIM Business Suite?
ZIM’s business eSIM management platform is ideal for:
Sales teams on the road across regions
Remote-first companies with global staff
Tech and SaaS firms sending employees to conferences or client sites
Consulting or law firms requiring secure, stable communication abroad

If your business touches multiple countries, ZIM makes life easier for your employees—and your accounting department.
Security & Data Protection for Corporate Travel
Data security isn’t just a buzzword—especially when employees are accessing sensitive documents or using cloud tools on the go. Public Wi-Fi networks can be dangerous, and unsecured local SIMs offer little protection.
ZIM’s mobile network-backed eSIMs:
Operate over secure cellular data, not public Wi-Fi
Reduce risk of SIM cloning or number spoofing
Work with VPNs and 2FA tools for added security
Allow immediate eSIM deactivation if a device is lost
Safe, smart, and built for mobile-first teams.
