Abstract
A method of loading a subscription profile into a subscriber identification module of a target mobile terminal is described. The method can include sending a combined request for authentication and transfer of profile to an authentication system, the request containing a user identifier of the target mobile terminal and receiving in return a response message containing an activation code. The method can also include sending a request for downloading the subscription profile to a provisioning equipment item, the downloading request comprising the activation code, and, subsequent to a positive verification of the activation code by the provisioning equipment item, downloading the subscription profile into the subscriber identification module of the target mobile terminal.
