Which networks does the China eSIM use?+
China Mobile (5G), China Unicom (5G), China Telecom (5G)
Is my phone compatible?+
Most phones since 2019 (iPhone XS or newer, Galaxy S20 or newer, Pixel 3 or newer) support eSIM. Your phone must be carrier-unlocked.
When does the validity start?+
When the eSIM first connects to a network at your destination, not when you buy it. You can install it days before you leave.
Do I get a phone number?+
No. Plans are data only. You can still use WhatsApp, FaceTime and internet calls with your usual number.
What if it doesn’t work?+
Email us. If you can’t connect and we can’t fix it, we refund you.
