What is an eSIM?
An eSIM (embedded SIM) is a digital SIM card built into your phone. Instead of slotting in a plastic card, you install a mobile plan by scanning a QR code, and you’re connected. A Volo eSIM gives you data abroad with no roaming bills and no airport SIM queue.
How it works
From tap to connected
You buy a Volo plan and receive a QR code by email within minutes.
You scan it once, on Wi-Fi, to install the eSIM profile on your phone.
When you land at your destination, the eSIM connects to a local network and your data is live.
Why eSIM
eSIM vs a physical SIM
Nothing to lose, swap, or wait for in the post.
The eSIM runs as a second line beside your normal SIM, so calls and texts still come through.
Delivered by email in minutes, set up before you fly.
One flat price, paid upfront.
Store several eSIMs and switch between countries.
Compatibility
Is my phone compatible?
Most phones released from 2018 onward support eSIM and just need to be carrier-unlocked. Check the full list on our Compatible devices page.
