eSIM
An eSIM (embedded SIM) is a digital SIM profile your phone downloads and stores. Instead of inserting a plastic card, you install a travel plan over Wi‑Fi, then enable the line when you need mobile data abroad. Compatible phones list “Add eSIM” in Cellular or Mobile Network settings. Travel eSIMs are prepaid: you choose destination or region, data size, and validity, pay in a currency you understand, and receive a QR or install link. Dual-SIM devices can keep your home number for SMS while the eSIM handles data. Always confirm the phone is carrier-unlocked before purchase. With Simbo, plans show ILS pricing, hotspot notes when relevant, and WhatsApp support if activation stalls. Install at home on stable Wi‑Fi, leave the line off until arrival so validity starts when you need it, and use the device checker if you are unsure about your model.
