How to Use Your Jetset eSIM

The modern way to travel is to arrive connected. With a Jetset eSIM, you can forget about expensive roaming bills, frustrating airport queues, or the risk of losing your physical SIM card. Our digital SIMs are designed to give you instant, reliable mobile data the moment you land.

Here's your step-by-step guide to using your Jetset eSIM for a stress-free trip.

Step 1: Purchase Your eSIM Plan Online (Up to 180 Days in Advance)

You can purchase your plan up to 180 days before your trip. This gives you plenty of time to prepare. All of our plans come with a money-back guarantee, so you can buy with confidence.

  • Visit the Jetset eSIMs website and select your destination (e.g., United States, Europe, Thailand).

  • Choose a data plan that fits your travel needs. Our plans vary by data amount (e.g., 1GB, 5GB, 10GB, 50GB) and duration (e.g., 7, 15, or 30 days).

  • Complete the purchase and check your email. We'll instantly send you a confirmation with a QR code and activation instructions.

Step 2: Install and Activate Your eSIM (Just Before You Fly)

This is the key to a seamless experience. You should install your eSIM before you travel, but wait to activate your data plan until you are just about to depart. This ensures you're ready to go as soon as you land.

For iPhone Users (iOS)

  1. Go to Settings > Mobile Data.

  2. Select Add eSIM.

  3. Choose Use QR Code and scan the code from your email.

  4. Follow the on-screen prompts to label your new eSIM and set it as your default for Mobile Data. Make sure to choose “Turn on this Line” or “Travel Line”.

  5. Set your home SIM as your default for Voice and SMS so you can still receive calls and texts from your UK number while using the eSIM for data.

  6. Crucially, do not turn on Data Roaming for your new Jetset eSIM until you arrive at your destination.

For Android Users

  1. Go to Settings > Network & Internet > SIMs.

  2. Tap Add SIM and select Download an eSIM instead, or a similar option.

  3. Scan the QR code from your email.

  4. Follow the prompts to label your new eSIM and set it as your preferred SIM for mobile data.

  5. Keep your home SIM as your default for calls and texts if you wish.

  6. Important: Keep data roaming on your home SIM turned off to avoid unexpected charges.

Step 3: Enjoy Data from the Moment You Land

That's it! Your Jetset eSIM is now active and ready. Once you arrive at your destination and turn off airplane mode, your phone will automatically connect to a local network, giving you high-speed data without any extra steps.

Whether you're ordering an affordable plan for each family member or a large data bundle for a solo adventure, a Jetset eSIM saves you money and eliminates a major source of travel stress.
