NomadeSIM is a telecommunications service headquartered in Santa Clara, California. It was launched in 2020 as part of LotusFlare, Inc.,[1][2] a software company specializing in telecommunications infrastructure.[3][4] Nomad provides embedded SIM (eSIM) data services for international travelers and enterprise clients,[3] with coverage in over 200 destinations worldwide.[5]
Plans include global eSIMs covering most countries and regional plans for specific areas such as Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Oceania. These plans cater to both short-term trips and extended stays.[11][1]
It is a data-only service, meaning it doesn't support traditional cellular voice calls or SMS messaging, but the speeds are fast enough to handle voice and video chat via apps like Facetime or Whatsapp.[10]
In 2024, the company expanded into enterprise services with the launch of Nomad eSIM Enterprise, a platform enabling businesses to manage employee connectivity across regions[9]
Services are distributed through the Nomad eSIM website and mobile applications, available for iOS and Android devices.[6] Activation is supported via QR code scanning or one-click in-app activation.[10]The platform uses encryption techniques such as remote SIM locking and encryption key management.[13]
