Using an Europe eSIM means you can talk, text, and browse your way across Europe as if you were a local — without any of the steep roaming fees you’d have to pay if you relied on your regular mobile plan.

Whether you’re traveling Europe for business or pleasure, this handy technology makes it easy to stay connected on a budget. Need to make a call while shopping in Paris, museum-hopping in Amsterdam, or zipping around on a Venice water taxi? That’s no problem with a Europe eSIM on your phone. 

Let’s back up a second, though. 

How do I get an eSIM card for Europe?

On previous trips, you may have landed on European soil, hit up a kiosk, and bought a physical SIM card to use for your trip. This meant that you (A) needed to find the right card and conduct the transaction in person (B) had to keep your primary SIM card safe until you were back at home, but (C) you didn’t have access to your regular number at all, so (D) anyone who needed to reach you had to know your new temporary digits.

Well, eSIM technology is a lot easier than that.

A European eSIM is something you can actually shop for before your trip even leaves, because you don’t have to activate it until you’re ready to use it. (And there’s no need to worry about losing your primary SIM, since it will remain safely in your phone the whole time.) Oh, and did we mention you’ll also be able to use your regular phone number at the same time, thanks to dual SIM technology?

Where to purchase an eSIM for Europe

If you go straight to your regular mobile carrier, you may be overcharged for a Europe eSIM — and just because you have an account with them doesn’t mean you need to rely on them for this. The nature of eSIMs is that they’re easy to get, quick to install, and 100% flexible to use.

Here at aloSIM, we’ll help you shop around for an eSIM plan that’s just right for your next Europe trip, purchase the one you want, and activate it right on your device — all without stepping foot in a shop or messing around with physical SIM cards.
