Abstract

A system and method disclosed provide a subscription management (SM) platform, associated with a mobile network operator (MNO), that may receive from a first user device, over a second network other than the MNO, a discovery message including the device identifier. The first user device may not include a SIM profile activated to provision the MNO. Methods and systems may send, by the SM platform to the first user device over the second network, a confirmation code request message and receive a confirmation code response message indicative of a request to send a stored confirmation code to a second user device. Methods and systems may receive, by the SM platform over the second network, a confirmation code entered by a user, and send the SIM profile associated with the device ID to activate for provisioning the MNO.
