What is an eSIM?

An eSIM lets you buy and install a mobile data plan for your destination before you travel, without a physical SIM card.

An eSIM (embedded SIM) is a digital SIM card built into a device that allows users to activate a cellular data plan without using a physical SIM card. Travelers use eSIMs to get local data rates abroad by downloading a plan via QR code.

  3. Install on your phone
