Over 1,500 companies worldwide rely on WhereverSIM
M2M (machine-to-machine) payment describes the direct, automated communication between payment terminals and banks - without any manual intervention. For retailers, payment service providers and operators of vending machines or self-service solutions in particular, a stable connection is crucial to ensure secure, fast and uninterrupted transactions.
With an M2M SIM, POS terminals are connected at all times regardless of the network and enable reliable card payments - whether in stores, at petrol stations, in vending machines or at mobile retailers.
This means maximum flexibility, reliability and easy scalability for anyone developing or using smart payment solutions.

The demands placed on modern charging infrastructure are high. That is why operators rely on a mobile communication solution that combines reliability, transparency, and flexibility.
Access to multiple mobile networks within a country (national roaming), e.g., in Germany: Telekom, Vodafone, and o2.
Thanks to network roaming, you always have access to the strongest mobile network in your location by default, regardless of the carrier.
>485 networks in over 189 countries for your M2M project. Near borders, devices automatically connect to networks in neighboring countries.
No throttling. The fastest possible local speed at all times.
As standard, our M2M SIM cards support data transmissions and SMS, voice calls on request.
M2M SIM cards enable stable and secure wireless communication for a wide range of retail applications. They ensure that payment terminals, digital displays, remote maintenance systems, and IoT devices remain connected at all times —regardless of location or fixed internet connections.
Whether for contactless payments, inventory level notifications, or LTE fallback—M2M SIMs ensure reliable data transmission and guarantee smooth operation in retail stores, vending machines, or mobile sales points.

Whether for payment terminals, the temporary sales stand at the strawberry field or vending machines set up around the world: Our M2M SIM offers access to the strongest local network for all retail applications anytime and anywhere, both at home and abroad. In border regions, the networks of neighboring countries are also taken into account to guarantee even better coverage.
You receive all data from your POS systems, alarm systems or merchandise management systems in real time - regardless of whether the M2M SIM is the main connection or the backup. We offer different data tariffs to suit every application, from a shared data pool for all active M2M SIM cards to a KB-precise pay-as-you-go tariff.
Your benefits of M2M SIM cards at a glance:

Unlike consumer SIM cards from network operators, our M2M SIM cards are not tied to a specific mobile network. Instead, they enable IoT devices to access all available mobile networks at their respective locations via national roaming. Since our M2M SIMs are set to unmanaged roaming by default, they allow devices to connect to the strongest mobile network at their location rather than to that of a preferred carrier.
Worldwide, devices that meet the minimum technical requirements can connect to over 485 mobile networks using our M2M SIM card. In Germany, our M2M SIM cards support all mobile networks operated by the three carriers—Telekom, Vodafone, and o2—with a single plan.
M2M SIM cards are the top choice for payment POS terminals because they are specifically designed for reliable, long-term use in connected devices. They are engineered to maintain a reliable connection for the stable transmission of payment data.
A key advantage here is multi-network connectivity: Thanks to the M2M SIM card, a POS terminal can connect to various cellular networks and thus establish a connection at virtually any location. With WhereverSIM, the device can automatically switch networks based on signal strength, ensuring a stable connection even during local network outages or when coverage is weak.
Especially in payment processing, where every transaction must be processed reliably and in real time, this ensures high availability and secure data transmission. M2M SIM cards are therefore the ideal solution for stationary and mobile POS terminals.
M2M SIM cards help ensure that communication from payment terminals is secure and reliable. Private APNs and VPN connections can be used to set up closed networks in which sensitive payment data is transmitted securely.
In addition, M2M SIM cards enable targeted control of data connections as well as centralized management of the devices and SIM cards in use. Combined with a stable cellular connection, this ensures secure and uninterrupted payment processing.
Particularly in the payments sector, where availability and data security are crucial, M2M SIM cards therefore offer significant advantages over traditional mobile communications solutions.
M2M SIM cards ensure reliable connectivity for vending machines, digital advertising displays, and smart displays. An M2M terminal in a vending machine can process contactless payments in real time, while digital signage is supplied with up-to-date content regardless of location. Remote management allows for efficient maintenance and minimizes downtime.
M2M SIM cards enable the rapid deployment of payment terminals, point-of-sale systems, and other connected devices—without the need for a fixed on-site Internet connection.
This allows new branches, pop-up stores, or temporary retail spaces to be opened much more quickly, as there are no delays in setting up a landline connection. The devices are ready for use immediately after installation and can communicate securely with the necessary backend systems.
This reduces the implementation effort and speeds up the opening of new locations.
