FAQ

Questions about eSIM plans

What is an eSIM?

An eSIM is a digital SIM built into your phone that lets you activate a data plan without inserting a physical card. Your original SIM stays in your phone, and the data plan is added alongside it.

How do I know if my phone supports eSIM?

Most recent iPhones and many Android devices support eSIM. You can check in your phone's mobile network settings, or contact our support team before you buy.

When does the plan activate?

Your plan activates instantly inside the app after purchase. We recommend installing it before you travel while on Wi-Fi, then turning on its data when you arrive.

How many countries do the plans cover?

We offer more than 5,000 international data plans covering over 190 countries, and the countries included in each plan are shown before you buy.

Do I keep my local number?

Yes. An eSIM adds a data plan alongside your current SIM, so your local number stays on your phone as it is.

What if my plan doesn't work?

Make sure the eSIM line is selected for mobile data and roaming is on, then restart your phone. If the problem continues, contact our support team through in-app chat or WhatsApp.
