An eSIM is a digital SIM card built into your phone. Instead of a physical card you insert, you install it by scanning a QR code.
A physical SIM is a small plastic card you swap in and out of your phone. An eSIM is software — it lives on a chip already inside your phone. Installing one takes a QR code scan and a couple of taps, not a trip to a kiosk or a SIM ejector tool.
You keep your home SIM active for calls and texts on your own number, and run a Roamly eSIM alongside it purely for mobile data in your destination. No roaming charges from your home carrier, no hunting for a local SIM shop after a long flight.
Most phones released after 2018 support eSIM. Dial *#06# — if an EID number appears, your phone is compatible. Check your exact model below.
Don't see your model? Dial *#06# on your phone — if an EID number appears, your phone supports eSIM. It also needs to be carrier-unlocked.
Roamly connects you to local mobile operators in each destination through our eSIM aggregator partner. The specific partner network for each destination is confirmed at checkout and in your delivery email, and can change if we switch providers to improve coverage or price. Coverage is generally strongest in and around cities.
