FAQ

Your questions, answered

Quick answers before you buy.

Does the Central African Republic eSIM come with a phone number?

No. It's a data-only eSIM. You can still call and text through WhatsApp, FaceTime, Messenger and other apps, and your normal SIM can stay on for calls and texts from home.

Which networks does it use in Central African Republic?

It connects to Orange on 3G.

When should I install it?

Install it at home on Wi-Fi a day or two before you fly, then turn on the eSIM line and data roaming when you land. You have 180 days from purchase to start using it.

Can I share my data with a laptop?

Yes. Hotspot is included, so you can share your data with a laptop, tablet or a friend's phone.

What if I run out of data?

You can top up the same eSIM with more data at any time, so you don't need to install anything new.

Why does my IP address show another country?

Your data is routed through the US, so websites and apps may see an IP address from there. This is normal for travel eSIMs and doesn't affect your coverage.

Will it work on my phone?

It works on eSIM-compatible phones that are carrier-unlocked. Dial *#06#: if you see an EID number, your phone supports eSIM.
