Portugal: Lisbon, Porto and the south
Portugal runs on MEO, NOS and Vodafone, all strong in the cities: Lisbon across its hills, Porto along the Douro, and the whole Algarve coast. Even the famous Tram 28 only rolls through covered streets.
Outside the big cities coverage stays good along roads and towns; rural Alentejo and the nature reserves have weak spots. Madeira and the Azores are included in most plans — worth confirming on the plan card before flying to the islands.
How do you install and activate?
Install the eSIM on Wi‑Fi before your flight, and turn on data roaming only after landing. Full iPhone and Android guide — on the How it works page.

Practical tips for Portugal
- Lisbon's climbs are steep — transport apps also show tram and urban elevator routes that save the hike.
- Good pastelarias and restaurants in Porto fill fast — a same-morning online booking makes the difference.
- Driving to the Algarve? Toll roads charge electronically — confirm your rental has a transponder, or pay in the app.
Traveling beyond Portugal?
If Portugal is just one stop on your route, a regional package covers several countries with a single eSIM — install once, cross borders freely.

- What if I have no signal after landing in Portugal?
- First make sure Data Roaming is on for the eSIM line and that it is selected for mobile data. Still nothing? Pick a network manually in settings. And if you get stuck, our support answers on WhatsApp 24/7.
