A travel eSIM is a digital SIM card that gets you online abroad without swapping the physical SIM in your phone. You buy a data plan for your destination, install it with a QR code or through the provider's app, and you are connected the moment you arrive, without roaming fees or a trip to a local shop.

Most travellers on Find Your eSIM choose plans with around 10 GB of data. How much you need depends on how you use your phone: streaming, video calls and hotspot use far more data than browsing or messaging. It's always a good idea to use our Data Calculator to set it up for the way you'll travel.

We don't recommend plans under 1 GB, because modern phones use background data and small bundles often offer poor value. A good starting point is your usual data use at home, keeping in mind you may use more while travelling, especially if Wi-Fi is limited.

In most cases you activate a travel eSIM by scanning a QR code or installing it straight from the provider's app. Most recent iPhones and Android phones can download it directly, and you can also install it by hand if you prefer. It's best to set it up before you leave, while you still have Wi-Fi, and switch it on when you arrive.

Yes, in most cases that works. Almost every phone that supports eSIM lets you keep your normal SIM active at the same time, so you still receive calls and texts on your usual number. Just turn off data roaming on your home SIM so it doesn't run up costs, and use the eSIM for your data.

Most travel eSIMs on Find Your eSIM are data-only. But a growing number of providers also offer calling, either through the eSIM itself or through a dedicated app. When it is included in a plan, we show it, and you can filter for it while you search.

Yes, but not in the way most people are used to from home. Almost all “unlimited” plans include a daily or total high-speed cap, after which speeds drop or access is cut off completely. Some are throttled from the start or have no hotspot support.

On Find Your eSIM we show how much data a plan really gives you and weigh that into the filtering. You can also filter by the minimum amount of full-speed data per day, for example with our transparent unlimited tool. If a provider is not transparent with us, it gets a lower position and we show a warning.

We recommend choosing providers with a transparent fair-use policy that is clear at the point of purchase.

For a short trip, a holiday or a business trip, a travel eSIM is usually the easiest and most convenient option: you set it up in advance and it works the moment you land. A local SIM card can be worth it for a longer stay, when you want a local number or the cheapest large bundles, but you often have to buy it in person and register it on arrival.

It depends on the country and how much data you need. Local SIMs are often said to be cheaper, but that isn't always true and the difference has become much smaller. In some places a local SIM still wins on price; in others a travel eSIM comes out cheaper once you factor in buying and topping it up. Comparing the plans on Find Your eSIM is the quickest way to see which is the better deal for your trip.

In most cases a travel eSIM saves you a lot compared to roaming. The roaming rates from your home provider are usually much higher per GB, and it's easy to run up a big bill without noticing. Some plans do include roaming in certain regions, so it's worth checking yours, but for most trips an eSIM is the cheaper choice.

No, and we check this ourselves. Find Your eSIM is built so you can compare completely anonymously. We only know who you are if you contact us directly. No provider feeds us your data in the background.

That is not standard in this industry. During our own testing we have caught providers, including a large and well-known one, passing on location data, contact details and device identifiers to comparison sites without the traveller ever agreeing to it. In some cases we could even see where someone was to within a few hundred metres. If you are away from home for a few weeks, that is not the kind of information you want leaking out.

Any provider that is this careless with your data, whether deliberately or through gross negligence, does not go on Find Your eSIM. Simple as that.

Yes, Find Your eSIM is completely free to use. We earn a small commission from our partners when you book through us, at no extra cost to you. On top of that we often have exclusive discount codes, so you frequently pay less than you would with the provider directly.
