Do I need ID or an account to buy a Germany eSIM?

No. There's no sign-up, no email and no ID check — pay in crypto and the eSIM QR appears on screen immediately. We store nothing about who you are.

Which networks does the eSIM use in Germany?

It roams on established local carriers — O2, Vodafone — and your phone automatically picks the strongest signal.

When does the plan start?

Validity starts when the eSIM first connects to a network — not at purchase — so you can buy before your trip.

Can I add more data later?

Yes — top up the same eSIM on this site with just its ICCID. No new QR, no account.

Any carrier-unlocked, eSIM-capable phone (most from 2019 onward — iPhone XS+, Pixel 3+, Galaxy S20+). Dial *#06#: if an EID appears, you're set.

Local SIM rules in Germany

Germany legally requires passport/ID verification to activate any SIM card (§111 TKG) — including prepaid
Verification is done in person or by video call, and the record is retained
Kiosk 'anonymous' SIMs are a thing of the past
