    Choose your plan

    Search your destination and pick the data and days you need. Prices include everything.

  2. 2

    Pay securely

    Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or Revolut Pay. The QR code arrives by email and in your account right away.

    Install the eSIM before you fly, switch it on when you land and you are online. Your own SIM keeps working for calls.

Plan terms explained

What the words on a plan mean, in plain language.

Plan length (validity)
How many days you can use the plan once it starts. Most plans start when the eSIM first connects at your destination, not when you buy it.
Activation deadline
How long after buying you have to start using the eSIM. The plan's days don't count down before then.
Daily plans
You get a fresh amount of high-speed data each day. After using it, you stay online at a lower speed until the next day.
Fair use
A network rule that lowers the speed after a certain amount of data, so everyone gets a good connection.
Top-up
Adding more data to the eSIM you already have, from your account. No new QR code needed.
Hotspot / tethering
Sharing your phone's data with a laptop or another device over Wi-Fi.
Data roaming
A phone setting that lets the eSIM use a partner network abroad. Travel eSIMs need it on; you only pay for your plan, never roaming fees.
APN
The internet setting a network uses. Most plans set it automatically; if one needs it typed in, it's in your setup email.
Internet location
The country websites think you're connecting from. It can differ from where you are and doesn't limit where the plan works.
ID verification (KYC)
Some countries require an ID check before a mobile plan can be used. The plan details say when.
Data-only eSIM
Gives you mobile internet without a phone number. Keep your usual SIM for calls and texts; calling apps work over data.
