eCarUp and Digital Republic offer you a simple & flexible data SIM solution for your charging stations and smart-me installations in your building.
You can use the Flat 0.4 for up to 5 charging stations and connect them to the Internet either directly or via a gateway.
You can either order a free SIM card for test purposes in the shop below, or place a larger order straight away.
For up to 50 charging stations, you need a higher Internet speed to ensure uninterrupted operation of the stations via a single gateway. You are ideally equipped for this with the Flat 10.
With a large system, you need sufficient bandwidth to efficiently network all charging stations via a gateway. The Flat 300 offers you a sufficiently high speed to operate a large number of charging stations without delay.
*As soon as local load management is available from the station manufacturer, it is advisable to clarify the actual connection speed required with the manufacturer / supplier.
It is best to always start with the Flat 0.4 SIM card. As soon as a system is expanded with additional stations, you can independently adjust the connection speed of the Digital Republic SIM cards upwards at any time.
Flat 0.4 with a rather low bandwidth is perfectly adequate for both billing and control.
If the smart-me devices in the apartment block are only used for billing, Flat 0.4 is sufficient.
If the billing is supplemented by control, you need a little more bandwidth and are well covered with Flat 10.
As many end devices are connected to one gateway, it is advisable to use the Flat 300 to ensure that billing and control function reliably in every case.
*For complex and dynamic control systems such as self-consumption optimisation or load control, it is advisable to clarify the effectively required connection speed in advance.
It is best to always start with the Flat 0.4 SIM card. As soon as a system is expanded with additional stations, you can independently adjust the connection speed of the Digital Republic SIM cards upwards at any time.
Is it normal to kinda love a telecommunications provider? Everything from first signing up online for a sim card to then getting wifi for the flat, to requesting a new sim card with the same number after my phone was stolen, or upgrading to get more EU roaming credits if I used up all of mine – everything has been so effortless and pleasant, and so super quick. Plus, affordable. Digital Republic is amazing in every regard, everything is 10/10.

By far the best mobile operator I’ve ever dealt with. I travel a lot, and can easily pause subscriptions when I’ll be gone for a longer time. I lost my SIM card once, and got a replacement within a business day free of charge. So easy to deal with in every regard and flexible options.

I’ve been using Digital Republic as my mobile phone carrier for the last few years in Switzerland. Their online portal makes it very easy to manage your subscription, their customer service is responsive, and I have gotten good coverage both inside of CH and in the rest of Europe. I’m very happy with their service and would highly recommend!

I’ve been with Digital Republic for a while now and loved them especially when I lived abroad and was able to pay only for months needed. But I’ve been back in Switzerland for a while and have moved my whole family to Digital Republic because they’re simply more value for money, have a better admin interface and superb customer service than all other Swiss Telcos including the big ones. They keep improving service even when you think it’s been alright as it was. And now they give you 5GB roaming per month which is smoky great.

The best customer support that I’ve ever used. Friendly, kind, fast and transparent. I did some mistakes while registering the transition from my old provider and a person from customer support helped me to clean up my mess in less than 5 minutes!

When moving to CH, choosing the right phone service provider can be hard. I had a gret experience and support from assistant Jasmin, working in customer service for Digital Republic. Thankful ✨️

What you need to know
You can order a free SIM card for test purposes and test it in your system easily and free of charge. This allows you to familiarise yourself with the customer portal and find out whether everything works to your satisfaction.
If you would like to order several SIM cards at once, you can also do this directly via the shop above and we will send you the SIM cards.
For advice, please contact us using the form below or simply give us a call.
If you would like to place a larger order for SIM cards, please contact Raphael Oerer at [email protected].
When you activate your first SIM card, you will receive access to the Digital Republic customer portal. There you can activate additional SIM cards, manage existing SIM cards and, if you wish, order an eSIM in just a few minutes.
You can find a detailed explanation of the customer portal here.
The data volume is unlimited on all SIM cards. Software and firmware updates for your systems therefore have no impact on the costs. All tariffs are unlimited and only limited by the speed.
You can either simply pay for your SIM cards by credit card or, on request, you can also receive a monthly invoice. The invoice is sent at the end of each month and covers all SIM cards. To get access to the manual invoice, please contact your account manager.
As soon as you have received your SIM card, you can register in our customer portal. To do this, you will need details about your company (VAT number) and about five minutes’ time. After registration, we will activate your SIM card automatically and you will receive an e-mail as soon as everything is ready.
You can find out how to add more charging stations to your eCarUp network here (only in German).
Please note that more charging stations also mean more traffic for your gateway. You can easily increase the speed of your subscription with just a few clicks. This is how it works.
All costs for charging station billing in the eCarUp backend are listed here.
Apart from the fees for the selected subscription, Digital Republic will not charge you any further costs. The management platform is free of charge and no activation fees are charged.
Firstly, you order the relevant SIM card directly here via our webshop. After receiving the SIM card, you activate it in the customer portal and set up your company account.
Do you have any further questions?
Our experts will be happy to advise you. Leave us a message and we will get back to you as soon as possible. If you’re in a hurry, you can also contact us by phone or arrange a consultation directly.
