Abstract
A method of provisioning an electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) to a wireless communication device. The method comprises provisioning an eSIM profile into an eSIM of a virtual eSIM provisioning platform provided by a computer system and where the eSIM profile comprises wireless communication service provider data and wireless communication service subscriber data, partitioning by an eSIM provisioning application a process of writing the eSIM profile to an eSIM of a wireless communication device into a plurality of messages, whereby the complexity of provisioning the eSIM profile to the eSIM of the wireless communication device is handled by the intelligence of the eSIM provisioning application, establishing wireless communication by the eSIM provisioning application with a wireless communication device having an eSIM, and sending the messages by the eSIM provisioning application to the eSIM of the wireless communication device.
