eSIM, explained

A travel eSIM, explained in a minute.

An eSIM is a SIM card built into your phone. Instead of buying a plastic SIM at the airport, you buy data for the country you're visiting, install it from an email, and your phone connects to a local network when you land.

What is a travel eSIM?

A prepaid data plan for the country you're visiting, installed on the SIM already built into your phone. You get it by email, so there's no plastic card to buy or swap.

How fast does it activate?

Your eSIM arrives by email within minutes of buying. Install it at home on Wi-Fi, and it connects to a local network by itself when you land.

Do I keep my usual phone number?

Yes. The eSIM sits alongside your normal SIM, so your home number keeps working for calls and texts while Viasimo handles your mobile data.

Does my phone support eSIM?

Most recent phones do, including iPhone XS and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, and Samsung Galaxy S20 and newer. Your phone also needs to be unlocked.

What happens when the data runs out?

Nothing is charged automatically and nothing renews. Top up the same eSIM in a few taps, or simply stop using it.
