eSIM installation

 

To be able to use the eSIM you will have to first install it on your device. You should install the eSIM just a few hours before your trip. When you arrive at your destination, the first connection will be made automatically after a couple of minutes.

 

 

Before installing the eSIM, please ensure that your device is network unlocked and eSIM compatible (you can see the eSIM compatible devices here).

 

 

During the installation process, you will have to scan a QR code or enter the manual installation codes which we are going to send you by email. Before you begin the installation, please note:

QR code phone

– You can scan the QR on your device with your phone camera, or you can scan it on the screen of another device.

– In case you are not able to scan the QR code, you will have to do a manual installation which consists of entering one (Android) or two (iOS) codes. You should have these codes on hand before you start the installation.

– The QR code and the manual installation codes can only be used a limited number of times. Therefore, if you remove the eSIM from your device, you might not be able to install it again.

To install automatically: scan the QR code
