Install Your eSIM

Sometimes known as electronic SIM cards, eSIM actually stands for embedded SIM. As the name suggests, this means that SIM functionality can now be integrated directly into the device, rather than a separate card needing to be inserted.

In case you have the eSIM capable phone or tablet, you can use an eSIM instead of the regular physical SIM card.

Airbalticcard eSIM enables you to make calls, send SMS and use data.

You can select the data plan you need among our large range of prepaid data plans. We provide global or area specific data plans depending on your destination and data consumption.
Once you have selected the data plan you want, based on your travel destination, just click on “buy”. Your data plan will be added to your Airbalticcard Account.

Data plans will activate automatically after you have installed your eSIM.

You´ll need to activate all data plans before the usage under My Account area. Data plans will not activate automatically.

Airtime/credit lasts one year (12 months) from your last recharge/top-up. Your eSIM card will stay “live” as long as you recharge/top up once a year.

You can add credit easily online at any time. You simply have to choose whether you would like to add some airtime or a data plan and make the payment (via credit card, PayPal or other payment methods). After successful payment, your airtime or data plan is added to your SIM card.

Steps to add data plan.

• Go to “My Account” area
• Choose a data plan
• Make payment
• Activate the data plan
• Start using the service

Airbalticcard eSIM covers 135+ countries. You can see the full network list here.

Either is possible. Buy it right before you leave, or when you arrive at your destination. Whichever is most convenient for you. Airbalticcard data plans have different validities, and the validity period starts upon purchase. So, unless you’re traveling for over a month, you can buy it before you leave, and the validity will still cover your stay abroad.

If you haven’t purchased a plan before leaving, you can also buy your data plan when you arrive at your destination.

Please keep in mind that you have to switch the service provider to Airbalticcard when you start your travels. eSIM functionality enable you to use multiple carriers, so you have to make sure that you´ll switch on Airbalticcard before your travel.

We also recommend you to switch off the “allow Mobile Data Switching” – otherwise you would risk roaming on your local carrier.
