MTN launches eSIM in Ghana with Non-Expiry Bundle.
MTN Ghana has introduced eSIM, also known as embedded or electronic SIM. The service, which was reportedly available for MTN subscribers in Nigeria but not Ghana, is now available.
What is eSIM
Embedded SIM (e-SIM) is the next step in the evolution of Subscriber Identity Modules (SIM cards). They are designed to deliver unprecedented freedom and flexibility. Unlike the physical SIM, you do not need to insert an eSIM into your phone as it is already built into your smartphone, device or wearable.
You simply activate the eSIM with your account profile and you are ready to enjoy all the services you normally would with a physical SIM.
