FAQ about eSIM for South Africa

An eSIM (embedded SIM or virtual SIM) is a technology that allows you to activate and manage multiple mobile data plans on a single device. It eliminates the need for a physical SIM card and makes it easier to use services from different mobile operators on one device.
Our eSIMs are data-only and do not include a phone number.

Each eSIM works only in the country or region it was purchased for. For example, a US eSIM will not work in Italy — it activates only within the United States.

eSIM installation is one-time. Please do not delete it after activation — reinstalling it is not possible. The eSIM also cannot be transferred to another device.
Enter your phone model — the system will show whether it supports eSIM or dial *#06# on your phone’s keyboard. If you see an EID number (32 characters), your phone supports eSIM.
Each QR code is a unique identifier and can only be used on one device.
