Step-by-step installation guide
Why you need to turn on data roaming for the eSIM, without paying roaming fees
When does the plan start?
When the eSIM first connects to a network at your destination, not when you buy or install it. The plan’s days count from then (7 to 30 days).
Is there a fair usage policy?
No. The plan’s GB are a total with no daily cap: use them at your own pace while the plan lasts.
Can I top it up?
Yes. GB plans can be topped up from My eSIM with “Add data”, with nothing new to install.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to set up the APN to use it in Guatemala?
The APN for the Guatemala eSIM is “e-ideas”. You only need to enter it if your phone doesn’t connect when you arrive: on Android, Settings → Mobile networks → Access Point Names; on iPhone, Settings → Mobile Data → Mobile Data Network.
Does the Guatemala eSIM also work in other countries?
No: it only works in Guatemala. If your trip continues to other countries, the Americas (20 countries) and Global (117 countries) packs also work in Guatemala.
Can I install it before I travel?
Yes, and it’s the easiest way: on your home Wi-Fi. Installing it uses no data and doesn’t start the plan, which starts counting when the eSIM first connects to a network. Keep the line turned off until you arrive. You have 180 days from purchase to activate it; if you don’t activate it in that time, it expires and can’t be refunded or topped up.
