# Tags

### What are the Tags and why should I use them?

One of the key features of our SIM management platform is the ability to tag SIM cards. 

Through tags you can easily: 

* Group together SIM cards based on various characteristics (such as location, country, application, project or anything else that you can think of).
* Identify SIM cards or groups of SIM cards matching one or multiple Tags.
* Generate reports for Groups of SIM cards with the same Tags. 

### How can I tag a SIM card?
