Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about using a travel eSIM.

Will I lose my WhatsApp or standard phone number?

No. Your WhatsApp, contacts, and home number stay active. The eSIM operates on your phone's secondary slot, meaning you can use the eSIM for internet data while keeping your primary home line active to receive text verifications (OTPs).

Is my phone compatible with eSIM?

Most modern smartphones support eSIM. This includes iPhone XS and newer models, Samsung Galaxy S20 and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer. You can easily check by dialing *#06# on your phone; if you see an "EID" number, your phone is eSIM compatible.

When should I install my Airalo eSIM?

We highly recommend installing the eSIM right before you travel (e.g. at home or while waiting at the airport gate). You need a stable Wi-Fi connection to download the profile. Once installed, keep it turned off and activate it only when you land at your destination.
