Frequently Asked Questions about Global eSIM

What is an eSIM?

An eSIM, or embedded Subscriber Identity Module, is a virtual SIM card integrated into devices like smartphones and smartwatches. Unlike physical SIM cards, eSIMs are programmed remotely, enabling easy network switching and activation without needing physical swaps. They offer flexibility for changing carriers and plans, convenient international travel connectivity, and the management of multiple numbers on one device. While not universally supported, eSIM technology reduces the reliance on physical cards and simplifies the user experience by allowing remote provisioning of cellular services.

What is the Global eSIM?

The ETravelSim Global eSIM, previously called Global Flex 365, is a prepaid data-only eSIM for 60 destinations. It comes in 10, 25 or 50 GB plans on 4G/LTE, valid for 365 days from first connection, with hotspot allowed.

Which countries does the Global eSIM cover?

It covers 60 destinations, including most of Europe, Australia, Canada, Japan, Mexico, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand, the USA and Vietnam. The full list is in the plan details on this page.

Does the Global eSIM work in China, India or the UAE?

No. China, Hong Kong, India, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Brazil, Argentina, Egypt and Morocco are not included. The Seafarer eSIM covers these countries.

When does the 365-day validity start?

It starts when the eSIM first connects in a covered destination. First use must be within 30 days of purchase, so install it before you travel and plan your first connection within that time.

How do I activate the Global eSIM?

Scan the QR code from your email to install the eSIM, ideally before you travel. Turn on Data Roaming at your destination and it connects automatically.

Do I need Data Roaming, and do I choose a network?

Data Roaming must be on. The network is selected automatically, for example Tele2 in Russia and A1 in Belarus.

How quickly do I get the QR code?

Instantly, by email, sent to the address used at checkout. The email also includes the manual activation details.

What happens when my data runs out?

Your data stops. To keep using the eSIM, buy a top-up on the Global eSIM recharge page.

How do I top up the Global eSIM?

Choose a plan on the Global eSIM recharge page. The data is added to your existing eSIM within 15 minutes. Unused data does not carry over, and the validity of the recharge starts on the recharge date.

How do I check my data balance?

You can see your data balance in the ETravelSim mobile app.

Can I use a hotspot?

Yes. Hotspot and tethering are allowed on all Global eSIM plans.

Can I make calls with the eSIM?

The plan has no phone number, so regular calls and SMS are not included. WhatsApp and FaceTime calls work over your data.

Can I use one eSIM on more than one phone?

No. One eSIM can only go on one phone.

How to check handset compatibility for eSIM?

Dial *#06#: if your phone shows an EID number, it supports eSIM. It must also be carrier-unlocked. You can check your model on our device compatibility page.

Why is using eSIM better than using public WIFI while travelling?

Mobile data on an eSIM is encrypted by the mobile network, while public Wi-Fi is often open and shared, which makes it easier for others to intercept your traffic. A travel eSIM also keeps you online away from cafés and hotels.

GlobalFlex 365 esim

Purchase this product prior to our holiday and was easy to download etc. Have to be careful to switch it on when we arrived in Singapore, but it worked well and continued on in Europe with no issues. Didn’t seem to use up the data too quickly, so very happy. I intend to top up within the next 12 months and continue to use this for my next travel.

Hi Kathy, we're thrilled to hear your experience was smooth and enjoyable! Thank you for sharing your positive feedback. We look forward to helping you on your next trip!
