Bootstrap electronic subscriber identity module configuration

A system for provisioning an electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) to a wireless communication device, comprising:

• a processor;
• a non-transitory memory;
• a data store storing a plurality of eSIM provisioning data bundles, wherein each eSIM provisioning data bundle comprises at least one of a wireless access authentication key, a billing parameter, a rating parameter, a charging parameter, a quality of service (QoS) parameter, a public land mobile network (PLMN) identity, an international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI), a mobile subscriber identification number (MSIN), a mobile network authority (MNC) identity, a mobile country code (MCC), a coverage map, or a preferred roaming list (PRL) a service key;
• and
• an eSIM provisioning application stored in the non-transitory memory that, when executed by the processor:
• receives a request for the electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) provisioning data from a wireless communication device, wherein the request comprises contextual information and is received by the provisioning application from the wireless communication device via a bootstrap eSIM profile that grants restricted access by the wireless communication device to a radio access network (RAN) for the purpose of requesting and receiving the eSIM provisioning data,
• searches the data store based on the contextual information,
• receives a plurality of eSIM provisioning data bundles from the data store, and
• sends, according to the bootstrap eSIM profile, the plurality of eSIM provisioning data bundles by the provisioning application to the wireless communication device, wherein the wireless communication device is enabled to establish wireless communication links to different communication networks at least via the RAN and access different wireless communication services by activating a different one of the eSIM provisioning bundles.

A method of provisioning an electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) of a wireless communication device, comprising:

• receiving a request for electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) provisioning data by a provisioning application executing on a computer system from a wireless communication device, wherein the request comprises contextual information and is received by the provisioning application from the wireless communication device via a bootstrap eSIM profile that grants restricted access by the wireless communication device to a radio access network (RAN) for the purpose of requesting and receiving the eSIM provisioning data;
• searching a data store by the provisioning application based on the contextual information;
• receiving a plurality of eSIM provisioning data bundles by the provisioning application from the data store, wherein each eSIM provisioning data bundle provides authentication credentials and configuration data operable for use by the wireless communication device to establish a wireless communication link to a communication network;
• and
• sending, according to the bootstrap eSIM profile, the plurality of eSIM provisioning data bundles by the provisioning application to the wireless communication device, wherein the wireless communication device is enabled to establish wireless communication links to different communication networks at least via the RAN and to access different wireless communication services by activating a different one of the eSIM provisioning bundles.
