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.

since I don't use too much data it would be nice if all the plans lasted for 30 days. Update: turns out that topping up a plan does not extend the expiration of unused data from a previous purchase. I had 20GB for 30 days, and near the end of that time I had about 5GB remaining. I bought a 3GB for 30 day top up, with the expectation that my remaining data would also extend for 30 more days. This did not happen. I lost 5GB that I paid for, which just vanished. Not happy.

Hi Zach! We understand how frustrating this must be. Each top-up is a separate package, and unfortunately, data from the previous plan does not carry over. We apologize for any confusion and appreciate your feedback.

POS app. Doesn't work. Says my device is rooted. It's not rooted. Probably has something to do with the fact that this app has 9 trackers in it according to Exodus. I've also been told that they severely price gouge in this app with prices as much as three times as much as that which you would expect to pay with purchasing physical SIM cards locally. I was willing to give it a shot anyway but not now!
