What Is a Prepaid eSIM?
A prepaid eSIM, also called a pay-as-you-go eSIM or eSIM prepay, is a digital SIM with a data plan you pay for once. There's no contract, no monthly bill and no credit check. You buy a plan online, install it in minutes and use your data until it runs out or the plan ends. Need more data? Top up anytime.

FAQ
Prepaid eSIM FAQ
Is a prepaid eSIM the same as SIM only?
Almost. Both come without a phone contract. A SIM-only deal is usually a monthly plan with a number, while a prepaid eSIM is data you pay for once, with nothing to cancel.
Can I get a no-contract eSIM?
Yes. Every Avelis plan is no-contract: no monthly bill, no minimum term and nothing to cancel. Unlike a postpaid plan, you only pay when you buy.
Which prepaid eSIM plans have no monthly fee?
All Avelis plans. You pay once per plan, with no monthly fee and no activation fee.
How quickly can I activate a prepaid eSIM?
Your eSIM arrives by email right after checkout. Installing takes under a minute, and you can go online straight away.
Can I use a prepaid eSIM and a regular SIM card at the same time?
Yes. Most eSIM phones hold two lines at once. Keep your SIM card for calls and texts, and use Avelis for data.
Do I get a phone number?
No. Avelis plans are data-only. Your current SIM keeps your number for calls, texts and WhatsApp.
Can I turn my prepaid SIM card into an eSIM?
Only your current provider can convert your SIM card. Avelis offers prepaid eSIMs only: buy one online and install it next to your SIM card in minutes.
Does it work in my home country?
Yes. Choose the plan for the country you're in and it connects to local networks there. Turn on data roaming for the Avelis line.
How do I top up?
Log in to your account, choose your eSIM and pick a top-up. The data is added to the same eSIM, so there's nothing to reinstall.
Why do some apps think I'm in another country?
Some plans route your data through a neighbouring country, for example France or the Netherlands. Apps that check your location may show that country on mobile data. On Wi-Fi, nothing changes.
What if my eSIM gets deleted?
Contact our 24/7 support. Depending on your plan, we can reissue your eSIM so you can install it again.
