Unlimited: what to check
Providers usually apply a fair use policy: past a certain daily amount, your speed is reduced. When that threshold is published, it's listed in the plan details. Also check whether hotspot use is allowed.
Set up your eSIM in 4 steps
- Make sure your phone is eSIM-compatible and unlocked.
- Buy the plan, then scan the QR code you receive (or install through the provider's app), on Wi-Fi.
- When you arrive, turn on the eSIM line for data, and turn on roaming for that line only.
- Keep your main SIM for calls and texts, with data roaming turned off.
Your phone must be eSIM-compatible and unlocked.
