What Is an eSIM?

An eSIM (embedded SIM) is a digital version of the traditional SIM card - no plastic, no swapping, and no hassle. It’s built directly into your device, allowing you to activate a mobile plan instantly by scanning a QR code or installing a profile.

You can also store multiple eSIMs on your iPhone or iPad and switch between them easily. Perfect for travelers who move between countries or regions.
