Solid overall, just wish there was a bit more data for the price. Setup instructions in the app were clear and simple.

Worked fine but took a little while to connect at first. Coverage was strong even outside the city.

Frequently asked questions

How much does the Japan eSIM cost?

The Japan 1GB 7Days (nonhkip) plan costs $1.58 for 1 GB over 7 days, paid once with no hidden fees.

How do I activate my Japan 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 Japan.

It works on any eSIM-compatible, carrier-unlocked phone — iPhone XS and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, and recent Samsung Galaxy models.
