Questions about eSIM compatible phones
Not answered here? Email support.
My phone is not on the list. Can it still work?
Yes, it can, because the list covers the common models and not every phone made. Dial *#06# and look for an EID. If it is there and your phone is unlocked, our eSIM will install.
How do I know if my phone is carrier locked?
Look in Settings for a carrier lock entry, or ask your provider directly. A locked phone will download the eSIM and then refuse to switch it on.
Do phones from some regions lack eSIM?
Yes, a few do. iPhones sold in mainland China have no eSIM hardware, and models from Hong Kong and Macao are excluded except the iPhone 13 mini, 12 mini, SE 2020 and XS. Some Samsung models from South Korea and Japan also differ.
Can I use an eSIM on a tablet or laptop?
Yes, if the device has eSIM built in, as cellular iPads and many Windows laptops do. A data plan works there the same way it does on a phone.
Can two phones share one eSIM?
No, one QR code goes onto one device and cannot be copied to another. Buy a second plan for the other phone, or share data over hotspot if your plan allows it.
Phone checked? Choose a plan.
Plans from $1.99 for one country, or one global eSIM that covers 127 countries. The QR code comes by email after you pay.
