UK-based IoT provider KeySIM has announced a significant achievement in their rapid growth, surpassing 10,000 active IoT connections across more than 500 customers. This milestone reflects a growing trend among businesses to move away from single-network, contract-based models and towards KeySIM’s multi-network, pay-as-you-go (PAYG) solution.
According to the company, organisations are choosing KeySIM’s solution for its stronger connectivity, greater flexibility, and significant cost savings.
KeySIM is also the first IoT SIM provider to develop a remotely steerable SIM card, allowing users to toggle mobile networks remotely from the KeySIM management platform. This innovation gives customers unprecedented control over connectivity, ensuring uptime, optimizing performance, and simplifying large-scale IoT deployments.
In addition, KeySIM offers customers remote access to the private IP addresses assigned to their SIM cards. This removes the need to expose devices via insecure public fixed IPs, providing secure, managed access to devices over private addressing. This reduces the attack surface for IoT estates, simplifies network architecture, and eliminates costly public IP provisioning.
Founder of KeySIM, Graham Robinson, said, “Reaching 10,000 connected SIMs is an important milestone for KeySIM and a clear sign that the market is ready for a more agile approach to IoT connectivity. Our remotely steerable SIM technology, combined with secure access to private IPs, gives businesses real control. They can switch networks remotely, securely reach devices without exposing them to the public internet, and only pay for what they use.”
KeySIM’s technology has already been trusted by organisations such as FATFACE and the North Wales Mountain Rescue Team, supporting applications ranging from retail connectivity to mission-critical emergency communications.
KeySIM’s SIM cards provide reliable connectivity across the UK and internationally. The company’s PAYG model offers customers no minimum spend, no long-term contracts, and real-time visibility through a self-service online dashboard.
KeySIM serves clients across a wide range of sectors, including security, renewable energy, transport, logistics, and retail, supporting applications such as remote monitoring, smart metering, and mobile data connectivity.
As IoT adoption continues to accelerate globally, KeySIM’s flexible and transparent approach offers a future-proof alternative to traditional telecom contracts. This empowers organisations to scale efficiently and cost-effectively.
