Why our USA bundles are different
Most Travel eSIMs Are Data Only. Ours Are Different.
Many USA travel eSIMs give you mobile data, but no real US mobile number, no local calls, and no texts. That can make travel harder when you need Uber, hotel bookings, forms, restaurants and local services.
Most Travel eSIMs
✕ Data only
✕ No US mobile number
✕ No USA calls
✕ No USA texts
✕ Harder to use with Uber, forms, bookings and local services
✕ Often no setup before you fly
Better for USA travel

Device compatibility
USA eSIM Compatibility for UK Travellers
Our USA eSIM works with most modern eSIM-compatible smartphones. Check your device before ordering so you can connect smoothly when you arrive in the United States. If you have an older phone that does not use eSIM, you can still choose our USA physical SIM.
✓ iPhone XR onwards
✓ Samsung Galaxy S21 onwards
✓ Google Pixel 3a onwards
✓ Many newer eSIM-compatible devices
Great for UK travellers who want USA data, calls, texts and a real USA mobile number without expensive roaming charges.
Roaming comparison
UK Roaming vs a USA eSIM or SIM
UK roaming can be expensive on longer USA trips, and it usually does not give you a local US mobile number. A USA eSIM or SIM gives you local network access, clear bundle pricing, and a real USA number for travel.
✕
UK roaming can mean daily charges and fair-use limits.

USA eSIM & SIM FAQs
Questions UK Travellers Ask Before Buying a USA eSIM or SIM
Clear answers about phone compatibility, activation, data, USA numbers, hotspot, delivery and support.
Will my phone work with your USA eSIM or SIM?
Most recent iPhones, Samsung Galaxy phones and Google Pixel phones work with our USA eSIMs. Older devices may need to use a physical SIM card instead.
To check if your phone supports eSIM:
- Go to your phone settings. If you see “Add eSIM” or “Add Mobile Plan”, your phone supports eSIM.
- Or dial *#06# on your phone. If an EID number appears, your device supports eSIM.
Should I choose eSIM or a physical SIM for the USA?
For most travellers, eSIM is the easiest option because it is delivered by email and you do not need to wait for postage or swap SIM cards.
Physical SIM cards are still a good option for older phones that do not support eSIM.
The important thing is the bundle inclusions. Our USA eSIMs and physical SIMs include proper travel features such as data, a real USA number, and USA calls and texts.
When should I activate my USA eSIM or SIM?
You do not need to choose your activation date when placing your order.
After purchase, you’ll submit your activation details separately.
You can activate before leaving the UK, but your bundle will only begin once you arrive in the USA and connect to the US network.
Do I get a real USA mobile number?
Yes. Our USA eSIMs and SIM cards include a real USA mobile number.
You can use your USA number for calls and texts within the USA, Uber and rideshare apps, restaurant bookings, hotel bookings, forms, tour operators and staying in touch while travelling.
Many travel eSIMs are data only. Ours include a real USA number with USA calls and texts included.
Can I use hotspot and tethering in the USA?
Yes. Most of our USA eSIM and SIM bundles allow hotspot and tethering.
This lets you share your data connection with laptops, tablets, other phones and travel companions.
Hotspot availability and speeds can vary depending on the bundle you choose.
Is support available while I’m in the USA?
Yes. Support is available while you’re travelling in the USA.
You can contact us by email or WhatsApp if you need help with eSIM setup, SIM activation, troubleshooting, network questions or general travel connectivity support.
