WHAT IS AN eSIM?
An eSIM is a digital SIM built into your phone. Instead of inserting a plastic card, you download a data plan. It works alongside your normal SIM, so you never lose your number.

IS MY PHONE COMPATIBLE?
Your phone must support eSIM and be carrier-unlocked. Samsung Galaxy S20 and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, and many other Android phones support eSIM. Quick check: dial *#06#. If you see an EID number, your phone supports eSIM. You can also check your model in the app.

eSIM vs ROAMING vs LOCAL SIM
Roaming with your home network can cost a lot every day. A local SIM means airport queues, ID checks and a new number. A NuuTel travel eSIM gives you local data at a fixed prepaid price, set up before you leave home.

Download NuuTel and get your eSIM before your next trip.
