What is an eSIM?
An eSIM (Embedded SIM) is a 100% digital SIM card built directly into your phone’s hardware. It does everything a traditional physical SIM card does, but without the plastic.
How does it work? Instead of swapping tiny plastic cards or visiting a local carrier store, you simply download a digital data plan from the Roafly app.
- Get a plan: Choose your destination and data package on the Roafly app or website.
- Install: Download the eSIM to your device in minutes (via Direct App Install, QR Code, or Manual Entry).
- Connect: Turn on your eSIM data when you arrive, and instantly connect to the local mobile network.

- No Swapping: Never worry about losing or damaging a tiny plastic SIM card again.
- 100% Digital: Eco-friendly and completely managed through your phone.
