Travel eSIM FAQ


It is recommended to activate your eSIM on the day of your flight departure, where there is Internet connection available. Ensure your device has Wi-Fi or alternative Internet connection to scan your eSIM QR code. You may also need to restart your mobile device upon arriving at your destination.

*Important: Please take note that upon scanning the QR Code, the eSIM’s data validity will start at the exact activation time and will expire at the 2359hr timing mark on the eSIM’s last day. (Singapore Time Zone, UTC+08:00)

e.g. A 1-day eSIM’s validity starts from 0000hr to 2359hr only.
An eSIM activation at 1400hr would allow the user to have data connection until 2359hr on the same day.

eSIMs can only be added & activated once. Once removed from your mobile device, the eSIM will no longer be valid for use. To save on data usage, it is recommended to have a temporary disable or pause on the eSIM when it is not needed for usage. However, once activated, the eSIM’s package validity will not stop.
You may want to remove your eSIM when:
  • The data package of the eSIM has passed validity period.
    The eSIM has a specific valid duration of use. The validity is depending on the data package you have purchased.
  • You do not require using the eSIM anymore.
    If you no longer plan to use the eSIM for further usage.
    Note: eSIMs can only be activated & used once. i.e cannot be reactivated again.
  • You have finished your travels and/or in another country.
    As the eSIM’s data package is based on your selected country of intended usage, it cannot be used in any other country.

While eSIMs data packages have wide Internet coverage for the country selected, please note that the data signals might not be as strong when at coastal areas.

The QR code for an eSIM is only valid for 30 days from the date of purchase. Please note that it can only be scanned once, for activation on a single mobile device*.

A Travel eSIM is a virtual version of a physical SIM card. With most phones today having eSIM compatibility, simply scan a QR code to get instant data activation & connection on the spot.

A Travel eSIM with an unlimited* data package consists of both a fixed amount of high-speed & endless lowered-speed data to use when travelling overseas (*subject to fair use policy).

Depending on the eSIM plan bought & activated, the data provided will start off with the high-speed data given per day. Afterwhich, the remaining endless data’s speed will be lowered down to 128kbps.

Example: Australia 3 Days E-Sim Unlimited Data 2GB High Speed Daily

  • The 2GB high-speed data will reset each day, for 3 days.
