From choosing to connecting
A simple start, step by step.
Keep your order email and installation instructions available before you travel.
Check your phone.
Confirm the exact device model, sales region and carrier-unlocked status. eSIM support varies between versions.
Follow your email.
Receive a QR code and installation instructions. Use a stable Wi-Fi connection and follow the activation notes supplied with your plan.
Set your data line.
At your destination, follow the instructions supplied with your plan for mobile data, roaming and APN settings. Contact support if you need help.
Keep the roaming settings of your original SIM separate to avoid unintended charges from your home carrier.
Before you travel
Good questions. Clearer answers.
Choose based on your exact trip and device, not on assumptions about how every eSIM works.

Contact usDoes this plan cover Hong Kong or Macau?
No. This listing is for Mainland China. For Hong Kong or Macau, choose a multi-region product and confirm its coverage before buying. View the China, Hong Kong and Macau eSIM
Does it include a local number, calls or SMS?
No. This is a data-only eSIM. It does not include a local phone number, cellular calling or SMS. Having mobile data does not by itself guarantee access to any particular third-party app.
Will my phone support this eSIM?
Your phone must be eSIM-compatible and carrier-unlocked. Support varies by exact model, sales region and carrier. Check the manufacturer's specifications and our compatibility page, or send us your model details before buying.
When does the plan start, and how are days counted?
Use the activation instructions supplied for your selected plan. Your selected duration is shown in the order. Before purchasing, contact support to confirm the installation deadline, start trigger and whether days are counted by calendar day or 24-hour period.
Can I use Google, WhatsApp or other overseas apps?
Do not assume that an eSIM automatically provides unrestricted internet access. Ask us to confirm the capabilities of this exact plan before purchasing. App availability, account access, registrations and verification codes are not guaranteed by mobile data alone.
What happens when my total data runs out?
This page offers total-data plans, not daily data allowances. Do not expect a daily reset or guaranteed low-speed backup. Confirm the selected plan's exhaustion policy with support before purchase.
Can I share data, top up or reinstall the eSIM?
Confirm hotspot, top-up and reinstallation rules for your selected plan. Do not delete an installed eSIM until support has checked the issue; a QR code may not be reusable.
What if my eSIM does not work, or I need a refund?
Contact support promptly with your order number and device details so the issue can be investigated. Installation, activation and usage can affect the available options. Ask for the applicable eSIM-specific refund terms before purchase.
Optional. Separate. On your terms.
