FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
An eSIM is a digital SIM built right into your phone — no plastic card needed. You install a mobile plan over the air in seconds. It is perfect for travel because you can buy and activate a new plan instantly, wherever you are.
Your eSIM connects to trusted local networks the moment you arrive. You get fast 4G/5G data without hunting for a store or swapping cards. Think of it as a local data plan you can buy before you even pack your bag.
Pick your destination and data plan on avelis.com, check out in under a minute, and your eSIM arrives by email instantly. You can also redownload it anytime from your account — even at the airport.
Scan the QR code in your email with your camera, or tap the one-tap install link. Your phone will guide you through the rest. Tip: save the email before you travel so setup works even without Wi-Fi.
Installation takes under 60 seconds. Most plans activate automatically when you connect to a local network at your destination. Some start the moment you install them — check your plan details in the confirmation email.
An eSIM wins on speed, price, and convenience. You can buy it before departure, switch plans instantly, and keep your physical SIM in place so your home number still receives calls and texts. No more juggling tiny cards.
Yes — turn on data roaming for the Avelis eSIM line only. This lets the eSIM connect abroad while your primary SIM stays free of roaming charges. On dual-SIM phones you can set the Avelis line as your default data source in Settings.
If your eSIM has not been installed or used, our 24/7 support team can process a full refund. For partially used plans, we review each case individually and aim to be fair. Reach out via chat or email.
Absolutely. WhatsApp is tied to your original phone number, not the eSIM. Avelis only provides mobile data, so your number, chats, and verification codes stay exactly the same. Just keep your original SIM in the phone.
On iPhone: Settings › Mobile Data › select the Avelis plan › Remove Mobile Data Plan. On Android: Settings › Network & Internet › SIMs › select the Avelis eSIM › Erase. Deleting the plan does not affect your device or other SIMs.
