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.

Who is Airalo best for?

- Digital nomads who need to stay connected to work while abroad.
- Crew members (e.g., seafarers, flight attendants, etc.) who need to stay connected while they travel.
- Anyone who wants an easy and affordable data alternative to their home network.

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!

I've been using this app for a couple years now! it was a lifesaver while I was traveling internationally and allowed me to access data quickly so I could navigate and book Ubers as soon as I got to my destination. now back in the states, I found it's less expensive to keep using airalo than it is to use the data from my phone carrier! I'm a happy customer and have rarely had any issues with service.

Their eSIMs are good value and we've had no issues with them, including the Internet speed. We've used them in about 10 different countries. They also give you a sort of cash back credit to buy the next eSIM. It's also nice that they offer 3 different ways to install the eSIM, including QR code so it's easy to just buy multiple eSIMs on one phone and install them on all the phones of the family.

I'm updating my 1-star review because, after deleting my eSIM (I'm using Airalo in Spain; I live in the US) and reinstalling, things seem to be working more or less as expected. I have data service when I'm not on wifi (I'm able to, eg, make contactless payments using my phone). I was disturbed by how the service was working at first, then suddenly stopped. But deleting and reinstalling seems to have restored its functionality.
