How to Start a Free Telemetry2U IoT Platform Trial

Create and confirm your account, complete the essential profile settings and activate a free 14-day trial before connecting LoRaWAN, NB-IoT or LTE-M devices.

Trial period: 14 days Account setup: Email confirmation Networks: LoRaWAN, NB-IoT and LTE-M

Create Your Account Before Connecting Hardware

The account and trial can be activated from a current web browser on a computer, tablet or phone. You do not need to configure a device or gateway before creating the account.

Hardware is only required when you are ready to send live data. LoRaWAN devices need access to a compatible public network or a gateway configured for Telemetry2U. NB-IoT and LTE-M devices instead require suitable cellular connectivity.

Accessible email account

Telemetry2U sends an activation link that must be opened before the first sign-in.

Compatible device or network access

This is optional during registration but required when you are ready to test live data.

4. Start the Free 14-Day Trial

After saving the profile, open Account > Subscriptions. If the welcome page is still displayed, select Manage your subscriptions to open the same area.

On the Subscriptions page, select Start Free Trial. Telemetry2U will confirm the trial and show the information required to connect a compatible LoRaWAN gateway directly to the platform.

Use the frequency plan, server address and ports shown in your own account when configuring a LoRaWAN gateway.

The gateway table applies to direct LoRaWAN gateway connections. NB-IoT and LTE-M devices do not use these LoRaWAN server ports. Public LoRaWAN networks, including Helium or The Things Stack, require their own integration procedure.

The trial is now active. Add the required gateway, network integration and sensor devices, then use the dashboard and reporting tools to confirm that data is being received. When the trial ends, subscription options remain available under Account > Subscriptions.
