How to connect: step by step
- Make sure your phone supports eSIM (see section below).

- Pay — you'll get a QR code via email.
- Open "Settings → Cellular → Add Plan", scan the QR code.
- Activate eSIM after arrival — turn off roaming on your main card.
💡 Tip: buy eSIM before your trip — WiFi at the airport may not work.
Common mistakes
- Didn't turn off roaming on your main SIM — money gets charged simultaneously.
- Bought eSIM without checking device compatibility.
- Activated eSIM at home — traffic starts being used before your trip.
- Didn't check if the chosen operator has coverage in your region.
Compatibility check
