– hereinafter "Provider" – and customers through the website withavelis.com (hereinafter "Website") or other digital channels of the Provider.

1.2 Terms and conditions of the customer that deviate from or supplement these T&Cs shall not become part of the contract unless the Provider expressly agrees to them in writing.

1.3 These T&Cs apply equally to consumers (as defined by § 13 BGB) and business customers (§ 14 BGB), unless explicitly differentiated.

Service Description

2.1 The Provider sells digital SIM cards (eSIMs) worldwide, designed as data products for mobile internet use abroad.

2.2 The service offering includes:

  • One-time purchases: data packages with a fixed volume and validity period for a specific destination country or region;
  • Subscriptions: automatically renewing data plans on a monthly or annual basis;
  • Top-ups: subsequent recharging of an existing eSIM with additional data volume or an extended validity period.

2.3 Details regarding available packages, prices, data limits, validity periods, and supported countries are set out in the respective product description on the Website.

2.4 To use the eSIM, the customer requires an eSIM-compatible and network-unlocked device. A list of compatible devices is available on the Website. The Provider does not guarantee compatibility with any specific device.

Formation of Contract

3.1 The presentation of products on the Website does not constitute a binding offer, but an invitation to submit an offer (invitatio ad offerendum).

3.2 The customer submits a binding offer by completing the order process (clicking "Order with obligation to pay" or an equivalent button).

3.3 A contract is formed only upon dispatch of the order confirmation by email. The order confirmation includes a summary of the order as well as the QR code or activation link for the eSIM.

3.4 The Provider reserves the right to refuse a customer's offer without giving reasons, in particular in the event of payment defaults or suspected misuse.

Prices and Payment

4.1 The prices displayed on the Website at the time of the order shall apply. All prices are final prices; VAT is shown separately where applicable.

4.2 The Provider accepts the following payment methods: [e.g. credit card (Visa, Mastercard), PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay]. Available payment methods are displayed during the order process.

4.3 For subscriptions, payment is charged upon commencement of the subscription and subsequently automatically at the beginning of each renewal period, unless the subscription has been cancelled in advance.

4.4 In the event of unauthorised chargebacks or payment defaults, the Provider reserves the right to suspend access to the eSIM and to assert claims for dunning costs and other damages.

Delivery and Activation

5.1 The eSIM is provided exclusively in digital form. After successful payment, the customer receives a QR code by email and/or an activation link for installation directly in the browser.

5.2 Delivery usually takes place within a few minutes after receipt of payment. The Provider accepts no liability for delays caused by external service providers (e.g. email providers) or technical disruptions on the customer's side.

5.3 If the customer does not receive the eSIM within 30 minutes, they should first check their spam/junk folder and then contact customer support.

5.4 Each QR code and activation link may only be used once. The customer is responsible for keeping it secure.

5.5 Installation instructions are provided together with the eSIM and are also available on the Website. Device- or operating system-specific particularities are the customer's responsibility.

Subscriptions

6.1 Subscriptions are concluded for an indefinite period or for the minimum term stated on the Website and renew automatically for the respective renewal period (monthly or annually), unless cancelled in time before the end of the current period.

6.2 The customer may cancel the subscription at any time via their customer account on the Website. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period; amounts already paid will not be refunded, unless a statutory right of withdrawal applies.

6.3 The Provider is entitled to terminate subscriptions with 30 days' notice, in particular if the underlying network product is discontinued or prices increase materially. The customer will be informed in advance in such cases.

6.4 Price changes for current subscriptions will be communicated to the customer at least 30 days before they take effect by email. If the customer does not object within this period, the price change shall be deemed accepted as of the beginning of the next renewal period. In the event of objection, the customer has the right to cancel the subscription by the end of the current period.

Top-Up

7.1 The customer may top up an active eSIM at any time with an additional data package or a validity extension.

7.2 Top-ups are treated as separate one-time purchases and are credited immediately after payment.

7.3 Unused credit from a top-up will generally expire after the validity period stated in the product description, unless otherwise expressly stated.

Right of Withdrawal

8.1 Right of Withdrawal for Consumers

Consumers generally have a statutory right of withdrawal of 14 days. The withdrawal period begins on the day the contract is concluded.

Withdrawal Policy

You have the right to withdraw from this contract within fourteen days without giving any reason. The withdrawal period is fourteen days from the day on which the contract is concluded.

To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (Avelis Technologies UG (haftungsbeschränkt), Winterhuder Weg 29, 22085 Hamburg, Germany, Email: support@withavelis.com) by means of an unequivocal statement (e.g. a letter sent by post or an email) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You may use the model withdrawal form below, but it is not obligatory.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

Consequences of Withdrawal

If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse all payments received from you, including delivery costs (with the exception of supplementary costs resulting from your choice of a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us), without undue delay and not later than fourteen days after the day on which we received the communication about your withdrawal from this contract. We will use the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

8.2 Expiry of Right of Withdrawal for Digital Content

The right of withdrawal expires prematurely if the Provider has begun performance of the contract and the consumer has:

  • expressly consented to the Provider beginning performance before the expiry of the withdrawal period, AND
  • confirmed that they are aware that their right of withdrawal is lost upon commencement of performance.

This consent and confirmation is given by ticking a corresponding checkbox during the order process, before the customer clicks "Order with obligation to pay". Once the QR code has been delivered or the customer has installed the eSIM via the browser activation link, this shall be deemed the commencement of performance. From this point onwards, no right of withdrawal exists.

This does not affect the refund right set out in Section 9 in the event of proven technical errors.

Network Availability

11.1 The Provider cooperates with local network partners in the respective destination country. Network coverage and quality may vary depending on location, device, and network load.

11.2 The Provider does not guarantee uninterrupted network availability. Interruptions may occur in particular due to: maintenance work by network partners, overload, force majeure, regulatory restrictions in the destination country, or technical limitations of the end device.

11.3 For data packages labelled "unlimited", network partners reserve the right to reduce transmission speeds after a fair use limit has been reached. The applicable fair use limit is stated in the product description.

11.4 The Provider is not responsible for roaming charges incurred because the customer has failed to deactivate the data roaming function of their primary SIM card.

Warranty and Liability

12.2 The Provider's liability is limited to intent and gross negligence.

This limitation of liability does not apply to damages arising from injury to life, body, or health, fraudulently concealed defects, or claims under the Product Liability Act.

12.3 Where the Provider's liability is limited, this also applies to the personal liability of its employees, representatives, and vicarious agents.

15.2 If the customer does not object within 30 days of receipt of the notification of amendment, the amended T&Cs shall be deemed accepted. The Provider will draw specific attention to this right in the notification of amendment.

15.3 For current subscriptions, the customer has the right to terminate the subscription by the end of the current term in the event of rejection.

Online Dispute Resolution and Consumer Dispute Resolution
