An eSIM (embedded SIM) is a digital SIM integrated directly into your device. It lets you connect to mobile networks without the need for a physical SIM card, allowing you to change carriers or plans simply by downloading a new profile — no card swapping required.
Once you purchase a data plan, you’ll receive a QR code by email. To activate it, open your device settings, go to “Cellular” or “Mobile Data,” choose “Add a New Plan,” and scan the QR code. Make sure your device is connected to the internet during activation.
Most recent smartphones, tablets, and smartwatches are compatible with eSIM technology — including iPhone models from XR and newer, Google Pixel 3 and later, Samsung Galaxy S20 series onward, as well as selected iPads and Apple Watches. For a complete compatibility list, it’s recommended to check with your device manufacturer.

eSIM technology offers enhanced security by removing the risk of SIM card loss, theft, or physical damage. It also uses advanced encryption and remote management features to keep your data safe and protected.
Yes, most smartphones can store multiple eSIM profiles, though only one can be active at a time. This makes it convenient for travelers or anyone managing separate personal and business plans.
To change eSIM profiles, open your device’s Settings, navigate to “Cellular” or “Mobile Data,” choose the profile you want to use, and activate it. You can easily switch between profiles depending on your location or preferred network.
dataForTravel offers international roaming across numerous countries worldwide. Coverage, however, may vary based on your carrier and selected data plan, so it’s best to confirm that your destination is included before you travel.
To track your data usage, go to your device’s Settings, open “Cellular” or “Mobile Data,” and review your current data consumption and plan details. You can also use your carrier’s app or online portal for real-time monitoring if available.
If your device is lost or stolen, contact dataForTravel to deactivate your eSIM or transfer it to a new device. You should also use remote security tools like “Find My iPhone” or “Find My Device” to lock or erase your data. These steps help protect your personal information and prevent unauthorized network access.
