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
Does it have 5G in all three countries?
In the United States and Canada, yes: the eSIM uses the local 5G network where it reaches, and 4G where it doesn’t. In Mexico it runs on 4G only, without 5G. For maps, messaging, social media and video, 4G is enough.
Do I need to set up the APN to use it in North America?
The APN for the North America eSIM is “bicsapn”. 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.
Do I need one eSIM per country?
No: this eSIM works in all 3 countries in the pack with a single plan.
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.
