Quand choisir Bird
Placez la connectivité aux côtés de la relation client.
Use Bird to embed eSIM data packages directly into your existing product while delivering QR codes, activation reminders, and support replies over SMS, WhatsApp, and email. You keep full control over customer sign-in, checkout, and pricing.

Order mobile data packages, attach compatible top-ups to an installed eSIM, and configure automatic package renewal on eligible offers while keeping each package’s validity terms clear to the customer.
Comptes clients et checkout
Run customer sign-in, payment collection, and order history inside your own app while funding wholesale eSIM purchases from your Bird workspace wallet.
Une équipe capable de l'exploiter
Track orders, eSIM profiles, and active packages from one workspace so your support team can see whether a profile is installed, attached to a network, or consuming data.
Rendez la comparaison concrète
Testez un parcours nominal et un parcours de reprise.
Pick a destination market and a compatible test phone. Buy a data package, install the eSIM profile, and verify mobile data on a local network, then simulate a stalled setup to see what diagnostic details your app and support team receive.
Comparez l'offre exacte
Check the specific data allowance, throttling policy, partner networks, roaming rules, and validity period in your target countries rather than comparing headline country counts.
Suivez le résultat financier
Review published package prices, currency settlement, refund rules, and wallet funding alongside the payment processing and support work your team will run.
Lisez les observations avec précision
Order completion, profile installation, network attachment, and data usage arrive as distinct lifecycle events, and carrier usage reports can lag real-time consumption. Design your UI so customers understand both pending installation and delayed usage updates.
Planification de la migration
Planifiez une nouvelle installation eSIM.
Because an installed eSIM profile or phone number cannot be transferred between providers, moving a customer to Bird means provisioning and installing a new Bird eSIM for mobile data while keeping their primary line active for voice calls and texts. Wind down any existing subscriptions and recurring billing separately once the new data connection is verified.
