What is an eSIM?

An eSIM is a virtual SIM that can be downloaded directly into your phone. It connects some newer devices to the GSMA network.

Why use an eSIM?

eSIM gives you greater flexibility to manage your wireless plan.

  • Download your eSIM instantly and activate it in minutes, no waiting for a physical SIM card to arrive in the mail.
  • Most eSIM compatible phones are dual SIM, which means they can support more than one phone number at a time.
  • With newer eSIM compatible iPhones, you can have up to 20 different phone lines on the same device!
