How does a South America eSIM work?
An eSIM is a digital SIM card built into your device. It lets you connect to mobile networks similar to the way a physical SIM card would (except no physical SIM is required). A South America eSIM works by automatically connecting your device to local networks across the 8 countries included in the South America plan, making it easy to stay connected as you travel between destinations.
Whether you’re travelling through Colombia and Peru or crossing between Argentina and Chile, your eSIM automatically connects to the strongest local network in each supported destination.
Getting connected is simple. Purchase your South America eSIM before departure, receive a QR code by email, and install it in your device. Once you land, your plan automatically activates and connects without any additional setup required.
In smaller regional airports such as Cusco, Ushuaia, and El Calafate, Wi-Fi can be slow, making these places less ideal for installing eSIMs upon arrival. With aloSIM, you can install an eSIM pre-departure, adding a layer of convenience to your journey.
