When does the Ecuador eSIM activate?
It activates when you connect to a supported network in Ecuador (usually upon arrival). No manual activation needed—just land, turn on your phone, and you're connected, whether you're in Quito, Guayaquil, or Cuenca.
How does an eSIM work?
An eSIM is a digital SIM built into your phone that activates mobile data without a physical card. After purchase, you install the Ecuador eSIM in one tap from your order email. Once you arrive in Ecuador, your phone connects to local networks automatically—no SIM swaps or roaming fees.
How do I install Ecuador eSIM on iPhone?
Open your order email on your iPhone and tap the install button: the eSIM installs in one tap, then follow the prompts. Once installed, select the eSIM as your data line. You’ll need to enable Data Roaming on the eSIM line (not your primary SIM) to connect in Ecuador.
How do I install Ecuador eSIM on Android?
Open your order email on your Samsung, Pixel or other eSIM phone and tap the install button: the eSIM installs in one tap. Set the eSIM as your data line and enable Data Roaming on the eSIM profile to use mobile data in Ecuador.
Can I install my Ecuador eSIM before travel?
Yes! Install anytime before your trip—it won't activate until you arrive in Ecuador and connect to a local network. You have 180 days from purchase to activate.
Do I need to turn on Data Roaming for Ecuador eSIM?
Yes, enable Data Roaming on the eSIM line (not your primary SIM). This allows the eSIM to connect to local networks in Ecuador. You won't be charged roaming fees—it connects as a local plan with no extra charges from your home carrier.
Does Ecuador eSIM support hotspot/tethering?
Yes, you can share your data with other devices using hotspot on most plans. Check your phone's hotspot settings after the eSIM is active, especially if you're exploring beaches or hiking near Cotopaxi.
Will WhatsApp work with a data-only eSIM?
Yes! WhatsApp and iMessage stay linked to your home number. The Ecuador eSIM is data-only, so your existing messaging apps work perfectly—you keep all your chats and contacts.
Can I make calls with a data-only eSIM?
This eSIM doesn't include a phone number for regular calls/SMS. However, you can make calls using WhatsApp, FaceTime, Skype, or other internet-based apps over your data connection.

Can I top up my Ecuador eSIM?
Yes! All fixed data plans support instant top-ups. Purchase a top-up package using your original eSIM reference number—there is nothing to reinstall.
Which networks does Ecuador eSIM use?
Your eSIM connects to premium local networks including Movistar with 3G/4G/5G coverage, whether you're in Quito, Guayaquil, or the Galápagos Islands. You get the same service as locals, with automatic switching between carriers for the best signal.
Is Ecuador eSIM better than buying a local SIM?
Yes—no airport queues, passport checks, or language barriers. Install your Ecuador eSIM before you travel, so you can land and go straight to exploring the Basilica del Voto Nacional or the Amazon rainforest.
