About Sim Local
Choosing a plan
Plans are sorted by destination. Country plans cover places such as the UK, the USA, Japan, Thailand and Europe. Global and multi-destination options suit longer trips. Data allowances run from small 1GB packs up to 20GB and unlimited plans. Some plans add calls and texts, so read the plan details if you need a number as well as data. A Find My Plan tool suggests options based on your trip, and some plans are aimed at students.
Check your phone first
An eSIM only works on a compatible handset that is network unlocked. Sim Local publishes a compatible handsets guide, which is worth reading before you pay. Speeds reach 5G where the local network supports it.
Buying, activation and refunds
Because the product is digital, it is delivered instantly after purchase, and activation takes a single click. Refunds are not usually offered once an eSIM has been activated or downloaded. Pick your plan carefully, and speak to support before activating if anything looks wrong. Payment is by Google Pay, Apple Pay or PayPal. Help is available around the clock on WhatsApp, plus email, a help centre and airport stores.
