Are You Wasting Money with Your Existing IoT SIM Provider?

If you’ve been working with a traditional IoT SIM provider, chances are you’ve seen fees and restrictions pile up. From activation charges to long-term contracts, legacy pricing models are designed to keep you paying more than you should.

At Simplex Wireless, we built our pricing model differently. With us, you get affordable IoT data SIM cards and M2M SIM cards with no hidden fees—and you only pay for what you actually use.

The Hidden Fees of Traditional Providers

Most IoT connectivity providers operate with the same playbook:

• Activation, deactivation, or suspension fees on every SIM
• Termination penalties if you want to leave early
• Mandatory commitments to spend thousands per month
• Breakage and overage fees if you don’t use exactly what you committed to

On top of that, many providers demand 3-year contracts with minimum volume requirements. If your IoT deployment changes or scales differently than expected, you’re stuck paying for services you don’t use.

This is where many businesses discover they are wasting money with their existing provider.

How Simplex Wireless Pricing Works

At Simplex Wireless, we believe pricing should be transparent, fair, and flexible. That’s why our IoT SIM card pricing is structured with no hidden fees and no long-term lock-ins.

Here’s what makes us different:

• No activation, deactivation, or pause fees
• No platform fees just to manage your devices
• No mandatory contracts—scale as you grow
• No breakage or overage penalties

You get straightforward connectivity, billed in a way that makes sense for your business.

Flexible Business Models Built for IoT

IoT projects aren’t one-size-fits-all, so neither are our pricing models. With Simplex Wireless, you can choose from multiple options depending on your use case:

• Pay-As-You-Go: Only pay for the actual data your SIM consumes. Perfect for IoT projects with unpredictable traffic patterns.
• Data Pooled Bundles: Aggregate usage across all SIMs into a shared data pool, so heavy users offset light users without surprise fees.
• Prepaid Plans: Buy data upfront and control costs, ideal for short-term or seasonal IoT deployments.

This flexibility ensures you always have a pricing model that aligns with your IoT project’s real-world behavior.

Why Simplex Is More Cost-Effective

Unlike traditional providers who demand commitments, Simplex delivers carrier-grade IoT connectivity without the financial traps. With our IoT data SIM cards and M2M SIM cards, you get:

• Access to 191 countries and 550+ networks with one SIM
• Support for AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile in the USA
• No volume commitments to unlock great pricing
• Atlanta-based sales and support, so you’re always speaking with a U.S.-based team

This means you can scale IoT deployments at your own pace—without overspending or worrying about unused data.

The Bottom Line: Stop Wasting Money

If you’re locked into a costly contract, paying hidden fees, or forced into commitments you don’t need, then you’re wasting money with your current IoT provider.

With Simplex Wireless, you get:

• Affordable IoT and M2M SIM cards
• Transparent pricing with no surprises
