eSIMs For Business Travelers

At ORA, we work with businesses to simplify corporate connectivity. In this guide, we’ll explore how eSIMs enhance productivity, reduce expenses, and eliminate headaches for business travellers.

Business travel is evolving — gone are the days of scrambling for local SIM cards or dealing with unpredictable roaming charges. For companies with globally mobile teams, eSIM technology offers a secure, cost-effective, and efficient way to stay connected.

Why Businesses Are Switching to eSIMs

"Our sales team lands with working data — no more wasted hours buying local SIMs."
— Tech Startup CFO

1. Instant Global Connectivity

• No more airport SIM kiosks – Employees activate data before takeoff
• Seamless country hopping – No need to swap SIMs between meetings in Berlin and Singapore
• Zero downtime – Stay connected from touchdown to hotel

2. Cost Control & Transparency

Case Study: A consulting firm reduced its telecom expenses by 62% after switching from roaming plans to eSIMs.

3. Enhanced Security & Compliance

• No physical SIMs to lose or steal
• Remote wipe capability if devices are compromised
