From checkout to connected in five minutes
Step 1
Check your phone
Your phone needs to support eSIM and be carrier-unlocked. Most iPhones from the XR/XS onward, recent Google Pixels and Samsung Galaxy flagships do.

Pick a plan
Choose a country plan, or a regional plan if you're visiting several countries. Pick the data amount and number of days that fit your trip.
Browse destinations →Step 3
Pay securely
Checkout is handled by Stripe with cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay. Your eSIM is created immediately after payment, with no waiting for a delivery.
Step 4
Install before you travel
On Wi-Fi, scan the QR code from the confirmation page or email. Label the new line something like “Travel” so it's easy to find.
Step 5
Turn it on when you land
Switch mobile data to the travel eSIM and enable data roaming for that line. Keep roaming off on your home SIM to avoid charges.
