FAQ

Is my phone compatible with an eSIM? Most phones from the last few years support eSIM, including iPhone XS and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, and recent Samsung Galaxy models. Check your settings for an eSIM or digital SIM option.

When should I install the eSIM? Install it at home before you travel while you have Wi-Fi. It stays inactive until you choose to start it, so it will not eat data early.

Can I keep my WhatsApp number? Yes. WhatsApp is tied to your phone number, not your data plan, so it keeps working exactly as before. The eSIM just provides your internet.
