Five minutes over Wi-Fi

How to install an eSIM

On every phone it’s the same three things; only the menus have different names. Choose your phone and we’ll show you the way step by step, with the screens named as you’ll see them.

1. 1

   Check your phone

   Dial *#06#: an EID line means the phone supports eSIM. It must not be locked to an operator.

2. 2

   Install at home

   Over Wi-Fi, a day or two before you travel, from the QR code or the activation code.

3. 3

   Switch on when you land

   Switch mobile data to the eSIM and turn on data roaming for it.
