How to Activate Your SIM

Activating your eSIM from Simply eSIMS is straightforward and takes just a few minutes. There are two methods you can use: scanning a QR code or entering the details manually. Both achieve the same result — choose whichever is more convenient for you.

Method 1: QR Code Activation

This is the quickest way to install your eSIM.

1. Open the email you received after purchase. It contains your QR code and activation details.
2. On your device, go to Settings > Mobile Data (or Cellular on iOS).
3. Tap Add eSIM or Add Data Plan.
4. Choose Scan QR Code and point your camera at the QR code from your email.
5. Follow the on-screen prompts to confirm and install the eSIM profile.
6. Once installed, you can label the plan (e.g., "Travel Data") for easy identification.

Method 2: Manual Activation

If you cannot scan the QR code, you can enter the details manually.

1. Go to Settings > Mobile Data > Add eSIM.
2. Select Enter Details Manually.
3. Enter the SM-DP+ address and activation code from your confirmation email.
4. Confirm the installation and wait for the profile to download.

Important Tips

• Make sure you have a stable Wi-Fi connection during activation.
• Your device must be carrier-unlocked for the eSIM to work.
• You can install the eSIM before your trip — the data plan activates when you first connect to a network at your destination.
• Do not delete the eSIM profile once installed, as QR codes are single-use.
