CSL Group Acquires SIMPL Wireless for IoT Resilience

LONDON and DULUTH, Ga., Oct. 16, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- CSL Group has acquired SIMPL Wireless, a US-based IoT eSIM connectivity provider, in a move that will add multi-carrier eSIM, a unified connectivity management platform, and Tier-1 US carrier partnerships to CSL's global IoT connectivity platform. The acquisition gives CSL a North American home and provides customers with a single, resilient connectivity service that is simple, fast, and fully under their control.

SIMPL Wireless, headquartered in Duluth, Georgia, offers a multi-carrier eSIM built on unmodified, GSMA SAS-certified Thales eUICC infrastructure and native to SGP.22 and SGP.32. The EverSIM multi-carrier eSIM allows customers to buy connectivity from SIMPL or bring their own from up to 100 mobile network operators, with support for 5G Standalone and backward-compatible to NB-IoT. The native primary carrier profile on the SIM enables customers to localise their connections by downloading local profiles over the air, with backup profiles that step in automatically if the primary network goes down and hand back when it returns. The Compass platform provides customers with a single dashboard and API to activate, monitor, and manage SIMPL SIMs alongside existing carrier SIMs, with automated self-healing via auto-profile fallback.

The acquisition, CSL's second in 2026 following its acquisition of IoTM Solutions in July, strengthens CSL's ability to help customers build resilient IoT estates, with the uptime and operational control that life, mission, and business-critical applications demand. SIMPL's CEO, Jason Morrow, stated that SIMPL was built on three ideas: speed, simplicity, and control. Morrow added that joining CSL Group puts those ideas on a platform engineered for uptime and backed by three decades of critical connectivity expertise.

CSL already delivers managed IoT connectivity and patented rSIM® resilience across more than three million connections in building security, healthcare, infrastructure, utilities, and transport. SIMPL's acquisition gives CSL the US base, carrier relationships, and local team to bring that capability to North American customers. Together, CSL, IoTM, and SIMPL enable customers to deploy globally, connect with confidence, automate SIM and eSIM lifecycle management, and keep critical devices online as their estates grow.

CSL Group, founded in 1996, is the world's leading provider of Critical Connectivity®. The company manages over three million connections across building security, healthcare, infrastructure, utilities, and transport, delivering always-on, fully managed, multi-path IoT solutions at scale. With CSL's patented rSIM® multi-network resilience and IoTM's connectivity orchestration, SIMPL completes a single operating model for customers: manage every SIM and eSIM, and stay online when a network fails.

The acquisition of SIMPL Wireless marks a significant step for CSL Group in expanding its presence in North America and enhancing its ability to provide resilient IoT connectivity solutions to customers. With SIMPL's established partnerships including T-Mobile and Thales, CSL now has an immediate US customer base, local go-to-market capability, and Tier-1 carrier relationships. This acquisition will allow CSL to offer customers a single operating model for managing every SIM and eSIM, ensuring they stay online when a network fails, and providing the flexibility and resilience critical applications demand.
