FAQ
What is an eSIM?
An eSIM (embedded SIM) is a programmable digital SIM chip built directly into your device. It allows you to download and activate mobile plans without inserting a plastic SIM card. You can store multiple plans on one device and switch between them in settings.
How is an eSIM different from a physical SIM?
A physical SIM is a removable plastic card tied to one operator. An eSIM is built-in and can be reprogrammed many times. It eliminates shipping and waiting for a card, supports instant activation, and makes it easier to manage several plans in one device.
Can I keep my phone number?
Yes. You can keep your regular number on the physical SIM for calls and SMS. Most travelers use an eSIM only for data while abroad. Some operators also let you transfer your main number entirely onto an eSIM if supported by your carrier.
When does the validity of the plan start?
Validity begins after you activate the plan on your device, not when you purchase it. For example, if you buy a 30-day plan today but activate it in two weeks, the countdown will start only from the activation moment.
Do I need Wi-Fi to install an eSIM?
Yes. You must be connected to Wi-Fi to scan the QR code or download the eSIM profile. Once installed, your mobile data will switch to the eSIM plan.
Which devices support eSIM?
Most modern iPhones (XS or newer), Google Pixel, Samsung Galaxy S20 and later, and many flagship Android phones support eSIM. Some laptops, tablets, and smartwatches also include eSIM chips. Always check your device settings under “Cellular” or “Mobile Data.”
Can I use multiple eSIMs?
You can store multiple eSIM profiles on a device, but usually only one or two can be active at the same time depending on the phone model. This makes it easy to switch between local data plans without swapping cards.
Is eSIM secure?
Yes. eSIM profiles are protected with the same encryption and authentication standards as physical SIM cards. Since there is no removable chip, it also reduces the risk of theft or loss.
Can I recharge or extend my eSIM plan?
It depends on the operator. Some eSIMs are one-time use with fixed validity, others are rechargeable. Always check the plan details before purchase. Many providers allow topping up directly online without changing the QR code.
Can I transfer an eSIM to a new phone?
Not directly. eSIMs are usually locked to the first device they are installed on. If you change phones, you must request a new QR code or profile from the provider. Some carriers support quick transfer through their app.
Does eSIM work worldwide?
Yes. eSIM technology is standardized. However, availability depends on the operator and device support in each country. Many global eSIM providers sell regional or worldwide data packs that work in dozens of countries with one installation.
Can I make calls and send SMS with an eSIM?
Most travel eSIMs are data-only, designed for internet use. Calls and SMS usually remain on your physical SIM or work through apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, or Skype. Some operators offer full voice/SMS eSIM plans in supported regions.
What happens when my plan expires?
When your data or validity ends, the eSIM stops working. You can usually buy a new package or reinstall a new profile. Expired profiles can remain in your phone but inactive until replaced.
Why should I use eSIM for travel?
With eSIM you avoid roaming charges, skip buying local SIM cards in airports, and activate data before your plane lands. Plans are flexible, often cheaper than roaming, and let you stay connected instantly on arrival.
