Most cellular phone providers offer international plans, but here is an option to save you on data during your travels. ESIM card providers allow you to order a plan online and give you access to data in the country you are visiting.
gamintraveler ~ "What are eSIMS
eSIM is a shortcut for embedded sim or easier known as a virtual sim card. Basically, newer phones, tablets and wearables have the eSIM feature set up in the phone’s hardware, allowing mobile phones and some ultrabooks and iPads to connect to another network, in addition to their main physical network.
What is the importance of eSIMs
Right now, the main use of eSIMs is for international travel (unless you’ll get a mobile phone that supports only an eSIM – iphone 14). Data roaming from your home country, with your regular sim card network is usually very expensive and not worth it, not to mention the signal being very unreliable.
What do you need to look at when choosing eSIMS
Once you’ve checked that your mobile phone supports the eSIM capability, here are some of the deciding factors for choosing the right eSIM for you:
1. If you’re going to use the eSIM for travel, check the data plan to see that it will cover the amount of data you want to have, the number of days of your trip, and if the eSIM data plan that you’re getting supports the countries and/or places you’re going to. Find out the expiry of the data plan as well.
2. Check the coverage of your data plan to make sure you’ll have a signal once you are in the location you need to go to." ~ gamintraveler
