Is an eSIM cheaper than carrier roaming data

eSIM is the same SIM card with a specific number and tariff. Only it is already built into your device. It does not need to be bought in the salon and inserted into the phone. eSIM technology allows you to store data of different operators. It’s easy to switch between eSIMs in the phone’s menu. You can use one number for personal, another for work, and a third for unlimited internet. When traveling abroad, add an additional local operator number instead of data roaming. And then, it’s easy to delete the eSIM data profile.

Important to know about eSIM technology:

• The principle of operation of a virtual SIM card is similar to a physical one. As before, you manage additional services, tariffs, and balance.
• If you have more than one eSIM number connected, it is possible to select the appropriate one when making a call or sending an SMS.
• Your phone can have multiple eSIMs loaded, but they cannot work at the same time. Only one eSIM profile is active.
• The same eSIM cannot be activated on multiple devices at the same time.

How much more profitable is this than regular roaming?

The eSIM benefit is obvious. For example, in European countries, you can buy 1 gigabyte of mobile Internet (which is 45 hours of communication via any messenger) for $4.5. Using mobile traffic sparingly, only for correspondence or calls, will be enough for a week of full-fledged communication with your contacts on vacation or on a business trip. Compared with a week in local carrier roaming – it will cost you about $30. For any country, there is a large selection of tariffs. For example, in Austria – more than 10.

If you need more, a 10 GB package costs $20, and a 20 GB e-sim package costs $28. This is cheaper and more in volume than mobile operators give international roaming in standard tariffs. The Internet from such a package can be safely and without restrictions distributed to the gadgets of family members.

By the way, there is another benefit. It’s no secret that in an international data plan, the operator often “cuts” the speed of the Internet – for example, it gives only 300 MB of high-speed Internet from 1 GB. We do not have this – everything is at a full, good speed.

Is it possible to buy a package that works in several countries at once?

eSimWay cooperates with a variety of traffic aggregators, so our traffic packages are also diverse. Therefore, you can choose exactly what you need. Prices naturally vary from country to country and depending on other parameters. With the price, you can “play” with the amount of included Internet and the time of use – in any of the packages, and you can pay for Internet for a day, three, a week, and so on. And different coverage rates.

For example, you can buy the Internet only in one country. If you need to travel to several countries, there are also “regional” packages. By the way, they are sometimes more profitable to take than “single.”

For example, tourists often take the “All Europe” package (35 countries), which is very popular, it is bought by those who travel to the EU. The Asia Pro tariff unites several dozen countries, and it is very convenient for those who fly to Asia with transfers or for those who go on cruises in the Persian Gulf. The US + Europe tariff is in demand.

On the site, you can select tariffs for several countries at once. There is also a “global” package that combines 114 countries at once – this is convenient for people who travel a lot, business travelers, and those who need the Internet in exotic countries.

By country, it is now the widest – 150 countries and territories of the world. Of the popular tourist destinations, we currently do not have only the Maldives and Seychelles – but they will appear before the end of May. There is also no Cuba and Venezuela – but no one has them. Yes, and tourist flights to these countries are still a big question because of the high cost of flights overflying closed airspace. Otherwise, everything is “tourist”, even South American and African exotic.
