Abstract

Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for Digital Identifier-based subscription onboarding. One apparatus includes a memory coupled to a processor, the memory storing instructions executable by the processor to control the apparatus to acquire a Digital Identifier ('DIG-ID') comprising a verifiably secure identity, and to generate a digital signature of the DIG-ID and a timestamp using a private key. The instructions are executable by the processor to control the apparatus to send a first request to a mobile communication network and to receive a response containing an onboarding authentication success indication and a verified DIG-ID, the first request including the DIG-ID, the timestamp and the digital signature. The instructions are executable by the processor to establish a provisioning connection to the mobile communication network and to receive a subscription credential and/or a user subscription profile via the provisioning connection.
