PREPAID TRAVEL ESIMS

So there are SOOO many different eSIMs you can use these days but because of a recommendation from a friend of mine, I purchased off the 3rd party site “Mobimatter” who sell the products of many different providers, some I have heard of some I havent, and so this is my experience…

THE PROCESS:

Go onto their website and seaching via their options for which country you are needing it for

BUY

You have to have an idea roughly how any GBs you need when you travel, will you be listening to music or watching youtube? then you will need more GBs but if just to check out maps or keep in touch with people you will need a lower amount

SET UP ON PHONE:

Soooo simple! literally took me 1 minute to activate the SIM when I was at the airport on my way overseas – you can then activate it and turn it on when you land at your destination

*Installing the eSIM will activate it, only do it before you want to use the eSIM. 

We recommend installing it a day or two before traveling to your destination.

Prerequisites:

  • eSIM capable phone
  • eSIM QR code (received by email or through the MobiMatter app/web)
  • Good WiFi connection, preferably not a satellite connection (found on ships or airplanes) or free WiFis (like in airports or cafes) , as these might not work.

Steps:

  1. Go to Settings > Cellular / Mobile Data > Add an eSIM / Add Cellular Plan.

And basically its set up on your phone!

ACTIVATE:

Once you land then you toggle over the ON switch of that eSIM and its ready!

Once I landed at my destination, I turned on the eSIM and toggled the “data roaming” and it was all set up and I had data on the plane when I landed – super easy!
