Frequently asked questions

How much does the Africa eSIM cost?

How do I activate my Africa eSIM?

Scan the QR code in your phone settings (Cellular/Mobile → Add eSIM) or tap Install in the eSIM TopUp app. Install on Wi-Fi before your trip; it activates when you arrive in Africa.

Can I top up the same eSIM instead of buying a new one?

Sara Sara eSIM TopUp Support

Absolutely, Noah — you can top up the same Africa eSIM rather than buying a fresh one, and your usage stays visible in the app. Just head to your account when you're ready to add more data. – Sara

Which networks does this connect to?

Grace Grace eSIM TopUp Support

The plan page lists the carriers for that destination. Selection is automatic.

Do I need to install it before I travel or after I arrive?

David David eSIM TopUp Support

Set it up before departure. Installing needs internet, and airport Wi-Fi is not always reliable.

Does the validity start on purchase or on first use?

Priya Priya eSIM TopUp Support

Validity starts on first connection at your destination, not at purchase.

Yuki B. · 5 months ago

Can I top up the same eSIM instead of buying a new one?

Mark Mark eSIM TopUp Support

Yes, if the plan supports top-up you can add data to the same eSIM rather than installing a new one.

Can I use it in nearby countries too?

Omar Omar eSIM TopUp Support

That depends on the plan — country plans work in that country only, while our regional and global plans cover multiple destinations.

Wei L. · 8 months ago

Will this keep my WhatsApp active with my home number?

Yuki Yuki eSIM TopUp Support

It does — your home number stays live for WhatsApp, calls and texts. The eSIM only carries data.

Louis D. · 9 months ago

Is 5G supported or just 4G?

Tom Tom eSIM TopUp Support

You get 5G on networks that carry it, and 4G everywhere else. No setting to change.

L

Lea P. · 9 months ago

Does this work on an iPhone 13?

Sophie Sophie eSIM TopUp Support

It does. Every iPhone from the XS onwards supports eSIM, including the 13.

Is roaming charged extra or is it all included?

No extra roaming fees — the price you see is the price you pay.
