✅ Short Answer:
You can buy your eSIM anytime—it stays valid for 180 days after purchase. However, when to activate it depends on your plan’s specific start conditions:
✨ Before Your Trip
If your plan starts when you connect to a local network, we recommend:
- Purchasing and activating the eSIM in advance
- This ensures a smooth setup before arrival
⏳ Be Cautious with Activation Timing
Some plans begin immediately upon activation, not upon arrival. To avoid wasting data days:
- Check your plan’s “Product Details” section in the product page or email
- Avoid activating too early if the plan starts right after scanning the QR code
