Q: 3. When does the eSIM activate?

The eSIM usually activates as soon as you scan the QR code and install it on your device . The plan starts being used from the first moment your eSIM connects to the local network at your destination , not at the time of purchase.

Once the eSIM is installed, you usually need to activate mobile data and roaming in your device's settings for the connection to work abroad.

Q: 9. Can I share my connection with other devices?

Musée de l'Orangerie ticket purchase saved me!

8 June 2026

I bought tickets to the Musée de l'Orangerie via Paris je t’aime. It worked out great. We were in line at the museum to purchase tickets. One of the museum workers asked it anyone already had purchased tickets. Earlier in the day I had thought about buying tickets via Paris je t’aime, so I bought the tickets while in line and was able to enter the museum almost immediately, instead of standing in the long line for purchasing tickets. It was great. The tickets arrived to my phone immediately.

2. Is my smartphone compatible?

Most recent smartphones are eSIM-compatible (iPhone XR/XS/11/12/13/14/15, Google Pixel, recent Samsung Galaxy models, etc.). To check: dial #06# — if an EID code appears, your device supports eSIM.

3. When does the eSIM activate?

4. Can I purchase and activate my eSIM before I leave?

Yes! You can purchase your Travel eSIM before your trip and receive the QR code immediately. It is advisable to install and activate your eSIM upon arrival at your destination so that you do not use up your data too early.

5. Can I keep my usual number?

Yes — the eSIM does not affect your main number: you keep your usual phone number on your main SIM card. The eSIM is only used to access mobile data during your stay.

6. Can I use my eSIM in multiple countries?

This depends on the plan you choose: some Travel eSIMs are specific to a certain area (e.g. France or Europe), while others offer international coverage in over 200 destinations.

7. Do I need to activate mobile data or roaming?

Once the eSIM is installed, you usually need to activate mobile data and roaming in your device's settings for the connection to work abroad.

8. What should I do if I run out of data?

If you have used up all your data allowance, you will need to purchase a new eSIM or a new add-on (if this option is available) to continue browsing.

9. Can I share my connection with other devices?

Yes — if your smartphone allows it, you can usually enable connection sharing (hotspot) to use data on other devices.
