Land in any of 30+ European countries, the eSIM activates automatically. 500MB of mobile data, valid for 2 days from first use.

Common questions

Is it really free?

Yes — completely free. No credit card. No auto-renewal. Once your 500MB or 2 days are up, the eSIM stops working unless you choose to top up.

Does my phone support eSIM?

Most phones from 2019 onward support eSIM. iPhone XS and newer, Pixel 3 and newer, recent Samsung Galaxy S/Note/Z. If you're not sure, check our compatibility list — or just sign up and the QR install will tell you immediately.

Which countries does the free trial cover?

30+ European countries, including the UK, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Greece, Switzerland and the Nordics. Full list on the coverage page.

What happens after the trial?

Nothing automatic. The trial eSIM sits dormant on your phone. If you want more data — for the rest of your Europe trip, or anywhere else in the world — top it up with a paid bundle from your dashboard.
