What is an eSIM?
A SIM card that lives inside your phone
An eSIM is a digital SIM built into most recent phones. Instead of buying a plastic card at the airport, you download a travel data plan straight to your device. Your regular SIM stays where it is, so you can still get calls and texts on your home number.
With RoamX you pick a country, a region or a global plan, choose how much data you need, and you're set before you board.
