A few things worth knowing

Will my phone work with an eSIM?

Your phone needs to support eSIM and be unlocked, which means not tied to one carrier. Most iPhones from the XS and XR onwards and many recent Android phones do. Check your model before you buy.

When should I install it, and when do my days start?

Your 7 days start as soon as you install the eSIM, so install it just before you travel. Start using it within 180 days of purchase.

Install it while you’re on Wi-Fi. Our install guide walks you through it on iPhone and Android.

When will I get my eSIM?

It usually arrives by email within a few minutes of paying, with your QR code and install steps. Check your spam folder too. If nothing has arrived after 30 minutes, contact us and we’ll sort it out.

Can I make calls or send texts?

This plan is data only, so it doesn’t come with a phone number. Calls and messages through apps like WhatsApp, iMessage and FaceTime work over its data.

Your usual SIM stays in your phone, so you can still receive texts on your own number. Your home carrier may charge for those while you’re away.

Will my home carrier charge me roaming?

Not for data you use on this eSIM. To be safe, set the eSIM as your mobile data line and turn off data roaming on your usual SIM before you land.

Can I share my data with others (hotspot)?

Yes. Travelling with kids or mates? Hotspot lets your phone share this eSIM’s data with their phones, tablets or laptops, just like Wi-Fi. Turn on Personal Hotspot (iPhone) or Mobile Hotspot (Android), and they join it like any Wi-Fi network.

Everyone uses the same data, so choose enough for the whole group.

Can I top up if I run out?

Yes. You can add more data to the same eSIM. The link is in your eSIM email, or just ask us.
