How does our Ecuador eSIM work?

An eSIM is an embedded SIM card, and you probably already have an eSIM-compatible device. When you install an eSIM for a country or region, it lets your device connect to local networks in that area. This means your device will have data without needing Wi-Fi or paying roaming charges.

Will I pay roaming charges with a prepaid digital SIM card for Ecuador?

You won’t pay a penny in roaming charges when you’re using an Ecuador eSIM for your mobile data.

Just install your Ecuador eSIM while you have a strong internet connection (either at home, or while already travelling), and then activate your prepaid Ecuador data package when you’re ready to use it.

To avoid roaming charges on your primary SIM, please make sure you’ve turned off Data Roaming on your primary SIM (and confirmed you aren’t enrolled in a carrier travel plan) to prevent your home carrier from adding roaming charges to your next bill.
