How do I find my serial number? MEID, ESN, IMEI, or ICCID number?

When activating your RedPocket Mobile SIM or troubleshooting your device, you may need to know your phone’s IMEI, MEID, or your SIM card’s ICCID. Here’s a simple guide to finding these numbers.

 

What these numbers mean

IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity): A unique identifier assigned to GSM devices. Phones with multiple SIM slots have a separate IMEI for each slot.

MEID (Mobile Equipment Identifier): A unique identifier assigned to CDMA devices, similar to an IMEI, that identifies the device on the network.

ICCID (Integrated Circuit Card Identifier): The serial number of your SIM card. Every SIM, physical or eSIM, has its own unique ICCID.

Quick Note:

Do not confuse these numbers with your device's serial number (often labeled "Serial" or "S/N"), which is used for warranty and support purposes. The IMEI and MEID are network identifiers; the ICCID is a SIM identifier.
