Frequently Asked Questions

An eSIM is a virtual/digital SIM card built into your device. It lets you access mobile networks so you can call, text, and use mobile data - just like a traditional SIM card. Instead of inserting it physically, you simply activate a plan digitally from a provider.

You can purchase an eSIM online from a trusted provider. For example, Travel eSIMple offers coverage in over 200 destinations. Just pick your destination, choose a plan, and activate it before or during your trip.

Generally, yes. Since eSIMs are integrated into your phone, there's no need to insert or remove anything. They're ideal for switching networks or using mobile data abroad. Phones with eSIM support often have more space for other features - like bigger batteries.

Yes, as long as your device supports eSIM.

Prices vary depending on the data allowance and duration. Travel eSIMple offers plans starting from just $3.99 USD for 1 GB.
