Nano SIM card compatibility with arduino GSM Shiel

Official Hardware Retired GSM Shield

Hello,

I will soon set up an arduino mega with a GSM shield and I would like to know if I can put a Nano SIM card ?
I have already used other format of SIM but never NANO.

Thanks for your feedback.

You will need a SIM adaptor. I checked on ebay and there are many suppliers. Typically you can buy a kit to adapt Nano to Micro, Nano to mini and Micro to mini for about €1.50 or so.

Nano cards are thinner than Micro or Mini cards, so be a bit careful that it does not dislodge from the adaptor and jam or damage the SIM slot.
