A communication device, method and computer program product support concurrently receiving an embedded subscriber identity module (eSIM) profile and non-eSIM digital content from separate servers to enable service from a selected carrier. The communication device receives carrier destination data. The communication device requests download of the eSIM profile associated with a selected carrier from a subscription or carrier server based on the identified carrier destination. The communication device receives, via the network interface, digital content associated with the selected carrier and a configuration of the communication device from a configuration manager hosted on a configuration server. The digital content enables functionality via the selected carrier. The communication device installs the eSIM profile in the eSIM.
