Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about IQ Mobile eSIM for personal travel.
Can I reuse the same eSIM for multiple trips?
Yes! That's the key benefit. Install your IQ Mobile eSIM once, and it stays on your phone. For each new trip, simply add a plan or top up data for your destination—no need to install again. Your eSIM is yours to keep and reuse forever.
Is my phone compatible with eSIM?
Most modern smartphones support eSIM. This includes iPhone XS and newer, Samsung Galaxy S20 and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, and many others. Check your phone settings for 'Add Cellular Plan' or 'Add eSIM'. If you're unsure, our support team can help verify compatibility.
Can I use hotspot/tethering with IQ Mobile eSIM?
Yes, hotspot and tethering are fully supported. Share your data connection with laptops, tablets, or other devices just like you would with your regular SIM. Perfect for remote workers or families traveling together.
Can I use dual SIM with my regular UK number?
Absolutely. IQ Mobile eSIM works alongside your regular SIM. Keep your UK number active for calls and texts, while the eSIM handles all your data. You can even set which SIM to use for data, calls, or texts in your phone settings.
When should I activate my eSIM?
We recommend activating your eSIM before you travel. In some countries, provider websites and apps may be blocked, so it's best to set everything up while you're still at home. Once activated, your eSIM will connect automatically when you land.
What if I need a refund?
We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee if you haven't activated your eSIM. Once activated, refunds are handled on a case-by-case basis. Contact our support team if you experience any issues—we're here to help.
What does 'unlimited' mean?
Our unlimited plans include generous data allowances with fair use policies. After reaching the fair use threshold, speeds may be reduced, but you'll still have data access. Check plan details for specific fair use limits. For most travelers, this is more than enough.
Can I keep my UK number active while using IQ Mobile?
Yes. With dual SIM, your UK number stays active on your primary SIM for calls and texts. The IQ Mobile eSIM handles data. This way, you don't miss important calls or messages, and you avoid expensive roaming charges.
Can I switch destinations mid-trip?
Yes! If you're traveling to multiple countries, you can add regional or global plans that cover multiple destinations. Or, if you're extending your trip, simply top up or add a new plan for your next destination—all from the app.
Is my data secure?
Yes. IQ Mobile uses secure, encrypted connections. We don't track your browsing history or personal data. Your connection is as secure as any reputable mobile network. We're committed to protecting your privacy and security.
