What’s an eSIM?
An eSIM is a tiny chip that’s already installed in your device. During set up, you load your SIM profile onto it by connecting to the internet.
- You don’t need to use a physical SIM
- You can change provider without ordering a new physical SIM
- Only available for Vodafone Pay monthly customers with a compatible device
