Gemalto is supplying Transatel with the Gemalto On-Demand Connectivity remote subscription management platform. Transatel uses the platform to allow users of Windows 10 eSIM-equipped PCs to get online from the moment they first power up their device. Transatel uses the platform to allow OEMs to market mobile subscriptions to customers around the world, directly from their devices' toolbar.

Based on Transatel's global coverage and local tariffs in 140 countries, OEM vendors can retail mobile subscription packages with Transatel's mobile connectivity service, using their own brand, Transatel's or their retailer's. Gemalto's platform can remotely and securely download and activate a mobile subscription on an eSIM embedded into a connected PC, and thus provide internet connectivity even in the absence of Wi-Fi. Gemalto's On-Demand Connectivity platform complies with the latest GSMA remote SIM provisioning specifications, and enables mobile subscriptions to be activated and managed over-the-air, anytime and anywhere.
