Coverage and networks

Your eSIM connects to a partner network in the United States and switches if the signal is better on another one. The networks for each plan are confirmed at checkout.

Distances are long and much of the country is built around the car, so maps, ride-hailing and digital tickets for games, shows and parks do a lot of work on a US trip. Having data from the airport onwards also saves hunting for Wi-Fi to order your first ride.

Coverage is strong in cities and along the interstates. National parks are a different story: large parts of Yellowstone, Death Valley and the Grand Canyon backcountry have little or no signal, so download offline maps before you drive in.

When your plan starts and ends

Example for a 10 GB, 30-day plan. Nothing is used until the eSIM connects in the United States.

    The QR code arrives straight away. The 30 days have not started.

  2. Before you flyYou install the eSIM

    Install on Wi-Fi at home. Keep it switched off until you land.

  3. Day 1It connects in the United States

    The 30 days start from the first connection to a partner network.

  4. Day 30 or 10 GB usedThe plan ends

    Whichever comes first. For more data, buy another plan.

Install in about two minutes

You need Wi-Fi and the QR code from your email or your account. Menu names differ slightly between phone models.

Check your phone first

Your phone must support eSIM and be carrier-unlocked. If it was bought from a mobile network on contract, ask them to unlock it before you travel.

  • Dial *#06#. If you see an EID number, your phone supports eSIM.
  • Most iPhones from XR and XS onwards, Google Pixel 3 onwards and Samsung Galaxy S20 onwards support eSIM.

We check it against the list of eSIM phones. Nothing is saved.

United States eSIM questions

Will it work in Hawaii and Alaska?

Both are served by US networks, but the signal outside the main towns is thinner, especially in Alaska. Check the coverage list on the plan before you pay.

Do I need a US phone number for apps like Uber?

No. Keep your usual SIM switched on for calls and texts, so sign-in codes keep arriving on your usual number, while the eSIM handles data. Check what your own provider charges for receiving texts abroad.

Can I use it in Canada or Mexico on the same trip?

A United States plan works only in the United States. For a trip that crosses a border, a North America regional plan covers the US, Canada and Mexico on one eSIM.

Can I buy the plan now and travel next month?

Yes. The plan starts when the eSIM first connects in the United States. Install it within 180 days of buying.
