Delivery will be staggered for those who express interest through the bank’s app. Initially, the service was available only in digital format (eSim), but now it expands with the traditional chip, making it easier for those who do not have smartphones compatible with virtual technology to access.

The plans from NuCel, the operator of Nubank, include various extra benefits:
- Unlimited local and long-distance calls
- WhatsApp available, including voice and video calls
- Unlimited access to the Nubank app, without counting against the data limit
- A savings account yielding 120% of the CDI, with a limit of R$ 10,000

Additionally, the packages have no loyalty requirements and can be contracted directly through the bank’s app in just a few clicks.
How Does NuCel, Nubank’s Operator, Work?
NuCel operates under the MVNO (Mobile Virtual Network Operator) model, meaning it uses the infrastructure of an existing traditional carrier to offer its services.
In this case, Nubank has partnered with Claro, ensuring coverage in 93% of the national territory and access to high-speed internet, including 5G signal.
Since plan charges are billed via Nubank credit card, the process is straightforward, without the need for physical contracts or bureaucratic complications.
Why Is Nubank Investing in NuCel?
The launch of the physical chip from NuCel reinforces Nubank’s strategy to diversify its services and facilitate digital access.
According to the company, the idea is to offer more control, connectivity, and freedom to the customer.
With the expansion of the operator and the new plans, Nubank is getting even closer to its goal of being a comprehensive platform for financial and digital services.
