How much is an eSIM for United Kingdom?
Shpper eSIM plans for United Kingdom start at $2.86. You can choose from 16 plans with 1–50 GB or Unlimited, valid 3–90 days.
Does the eSIM include a phone number?
No, it’s a data plan. Keep your usual SIM in your phone for calls and texts, such as bank codes, while the eSIM handles your mobile data.
When should I install my eSIM?
Install it before you travel, over Wi-Fi. Your plan only starts when the eSIM first connects to a network in United Kingdom, so installing early doesn’t use up your days.
Can I use one eSIM for United Kingdom and other countries?
Yes. Regional and worldwide packs such as Europe, Worldwide and Africa + Europe also cover United Kingdom, so one eSIM can cover your whole trip.
Can I share my data with a hotspot?
Yes. Hotspot is supported, so you can share your eSIM data with your laptop or travel companions.
Will the eSIM work on my phone?
Your phone needs to support eSIM and be carrier-unlocked. That includes iPhone XS/XR or newer, Google Pixel 3 or newer and Samsung Galaxy S20 or newer.
