How to activate an eSIM for an Android mobile device?
To activate your eSIM, you need a wireless carrier which provides you an eSIM profile as well as an eSIM data plan.
To download your eSIM profile on your Android device, you may receive an “activation code” from an eSIM carrier. The activation code is in fact a download link. It is often in the format of a QR code that you will scan with the camera of your phone or tablet to install and activate your eSIM profile on your device. It takes just a couple of minutes to complete the whole process and get connected.
Other ways of getting an eSIM profile include downloading the app of your carrier and follow on-screen instructions or going directly through your Android device connectivity settings.

Very reliable every time but we would like to see the discounts extend for a year since most people travel once a year. We’ve been using your services for a few years now but no customer loyalty program.

The service worked very well
The service worked very well in all the countries I visited, except for a brief interruption while crossing from Germany into Switzerland. Overall, the experience was very positive. The activation and top-up process is very easy and straightforward. I will probably use it again on future trips.
