One eSIM, the whole trip

Why a regional plan

Before you buy

Does it really keep working when I cross a border?

Yes, that's the whole point of it. The eSIM connects to a partner network in each country the bundle covers, and the handover happens by itself — you don't switch profiles, scan anything new or change a setting. Each bundle's page lists exactly which countries are included, so check your route against it before you buy.

Is a regional plan cheaper than buying each country separately?

On a multi-stop trip, usually — one bundle instead of several eSIMs, and no setup fee on any of them. For a single country it's normally the other way round, because a country plan doesn't charge you for coverage you won't use. Both lists are on the site; compare the two for the countries you're actually visiting.

What does 'unlimited' mean on these plans?

A high-speed allowance each day rather than one pot of data for the whole trip — for example 1 GB per day. Once you've used the day's allowance the connection keeps working at a reduced speed until the next day. It suits trips where you can't predict your usage; a fixed bundle is usually better value if you can.

Is there a setup fee?

No. The price shown on a regional plan is the whole charge — nothing is added at checkout, there's no monthly bill, and no fee to top up later. A setup fee only appears on the custom-amount option, where you name a figure instead of choosing a package.

When does the plan start counting down?

When the eSIM first connects to a network, not when you pay. You can buy well before you travel without losing days. Each plan's validity is shown before you buy, and topping up extends the eSIM rather than restarting it.

Do I get a phone number with it?

No — regional plans are data-only, like the rest of our eSIMs. Messaging and calling apps work over the data, but there's no number that can receive an ordinary call or text. If you need a real number, that's our phone plans instead.

Can I top it up if I run low?

Yes, and it stays the same eSIM — no new QR and nothing to reinstall. A top-up buys data for the same bundle, so the coverage you started with is the coverage you keep.

Will it work on my phone?

It needs an eSIM-capable, carrier-unlocked phone — in practice most from 2019 onwards, including iPhone XS and newer, Pixel 3 and newer, and recent Samsung Galaxy models. Dial *#06# and look for an EID: if one appears, you're set.
