01
Confirm device compatibility
Your phone must support eSIM and usually needs to be unlocked for another network profile.
- Check the exact device model, not only the product family
- Confirm that the device is carrier-unlocked
- Keep the existing SIM active if you still need its calls or messages
02
Choose data for the real trip
Match the coverage area, validity and data amount to your itinerary and normal usage.
- Check every country in a multi-country journey
- Count validity from the provider’s stated activation event
- Allow more data for hotspot use, video or frequent navigation
03
Install without exposing the QR code
Treat the activation code and QR code as private. Install with reliable internet and follow the provider instructions.
- Do not publish or forward a private QR code
- Label the new mobile plan clearly
- Enable the correct data line and roaming setting only as instructed
