eSIM FAQ
What does an Airalo eSIM plan come with?
- An Airalo package comes with data (e.g., 1GB, 3GB, 5GB, etc.) valid for a specified time period (e.g., 7 days, 15 days, 30 days, etc.). If you run out of data or your validity period expires, you can top up your eSIM or download a new one right from the Airalo app.

How much does it cost?
- eSIMs from Airalo start from US$4.50 for 1GB of data.

Does an eSIM come with a number?
- Some eSIMs, including our Global Discover+ eSIM, come with a phone number so you can call, text, and access data. Check your eSIM's description for details.Ā

Can I use my SIM card at the same time?
Yes! Most devices allow you to use multiple SIMs and/or eSIMs simultaneously. You can keep your primary line active to receive text messages, calls, and 2FA authentication (but remember, they'll be subject to roaming fees).


Happy travels!

Used it for 2 trips to Asia (from UK), easy and seamless to install and use. Very useful for using Google Maps, and camera translation. Some messaging apps won't work (LINE, but would occasionally work) or won't send/receive photos (WhatsApp and LINE) but that isn't a problem if you go through a VPN.

After having a nightmare experience with numero eSIM where their data plan simply did not work and they refused to refund me or prove any reasonable solution, I decided to go with airalo instead. not only is airalo a lot cheaper, it was very quick and easy to setup (about 2 minutes) and worked instantly. Avoid numero at all costs, but I cannot recommend airalo enough. great company.

Been using it for over a year on the global plan whist travelling, have to say it's brilliant. At some places it takes some time to get a signal but after that it's all good. Reliable and fast and highly recommended, keep it up guys, had no issues in India, what you should do is activate your SIM before you travel, then all you have to do is toggle it on from your phone settings when uve landed in a foreign country. App is also brilliant, and UI is decent.
