My eSIM

Getting started

What is an eSIM?

An eSIM is a SIM card that arrives as a code instead of a piece of plastic. Modern phones have a small chip built in that can hold several mobile lines at once, and an eSIM is one of those lines.

Nothing is posted to you and nothing is swapped out. The SIM you already have stays where it is, and the travel line sits beside it.

You install it from a QR code, a one-tap link on a recent iPhone, or by typing in two values by hand. All three are on your order page.
