Seamlessly connect your worlds

eSIM, short for embedded SIM, is a digital SIM that is embedded into selected phones, tablets and smartwatches. It functions like a traditional SIM card, storing the information necessary for your phone to connect to a network for calls, texts, and internet access.

An eSIM is embedded within your device, while a traditional SIM is a separate card inserted into the phone's SIM tray.

With eSIM, you don’t need to physically manage or switch tiny cards when changing devices, plans, or providers. Think of it as a built-in SIM that you can activate and manage remotely.
