Teodoro Lima

Easy to use, worked well for me while staying for one week in the Bahamas. Took the free 100mb to confirm if it worked on my mobile and the 7day 1 Gb thereafter. Much cheaper and easier than buying a Sim card.

Mariana Sola

It was a great service and easy to use and install. I would use it again.

Have used GigSky with several devices in the Dominican Rep. and it has worked great each time.

Installation is easy with the provided instructions. Once you have set up the eSIM, you don't have to reinstall it when you buy future packages. Just make sure to not delete the GigSky eSIM, or you have to ask them to re-enable it. For me the big difference with other eSIMs is that GigSky will use any available provider. Other companies have a contract with only one provider, often one of the cheaper ones that may not provide coverage in rural areas. So far, GigSky worked very well in rural Bolivia and Argentinian Patagonia. One day, two providers went down in Ushuaia, but GigSky didn't miss a beat, as they just switched to the last working provider. Highly recommended if you travel to off the beaten path areas!

I've tried other E-Sims and they just don't compete. I always get great strong/fast service. They price is already affordable AND on top of that they promotions and coupons AND every time you purchase data, you receive credit towards your next purchase (further lowering cost). Thank you Gigsky for making my travels so smooth!

I have used GigSky for a number of international trips including India, Vietnam and Europe. While other travellers had trouble with reliability of their eSim company, I did not experience any issues with GigSky. The "Europe" package allowed seamless access between countries. Tip is to turn off roaming for apps that you don't access while travelling to ensure data isn't used unnecessarily. Easy to install.

Vanessa

Purchased to use in Bali. I had previously purchased with another esim provider which failed to work. Not one problem with GigSky.

Claudia Dengler

Used Gig Sky on a recent trip to Cuba and it worked well.

Excellent service while cruising across the Atlantic. And excellent customer service before my trip!! I would highly recommend GigSky!!

Cavan Gallagher

I was having trouble with Airalo so opted for Gigsky as an alternative. The eSIM was simple to set up (though I would consider myself reasonably tech-savvy; may be harder for people of an older generation) and worked great for a few days. After 3 days or so my connection just dropped out and despite lots of tech support articles online, I was unable to fix the issue myself so reached out to the support team at Gigsky. They replied nearly immediately via email and within a couple of hours they had it working again. If I need an eSIM in future I will be sticking to Gigsky.

Eric Lovinger

GigSky was easy to use and we went to several countries and was very helpful providing internet access wherever we went. I will use it again on my next visit to Europe.

FAQs

What is an international eSIM and how does it work?

An international eSIM is a digital version of a regular SIM. Installing one allows you to activate a mobile data plan without needing a physical SIM card. With a GigSky eSIM, worldwide travel is supported by our network of 400 partners across 200 countries and regions, 200+ cruise ships and 20+ airlines.

‍

What countries does GigSky work in?

With a GigSky eSIM card, international roaming is supported in over 190 countries. But our commitment to effortless eSIM plans doesn’t end there. You can also stay connected in the air and at sea by purchasing cruise, inflight data plans and offshore data plans.

‍

How Does Your Free eSIM plan work?

GigSky offers a free 100MB eSIM international data plan to all new customers. No credit is required. Whether you want to test our GigSky or get comfortable with the eSIM service to avoid data roaming, our free eSIM will provide you with cellular data in over 190 countries.

‍

What benefits does an international eSIM card offer?

The list is long, but the two primary benefits are convenience and efficiency. Because there’s no need for a physical SIM, you don’t need to worry about switching, losing, or damaging your temporary eSIM or original SIM card. Plus, eSIM carrier activation is straightforward, and network switching is automated for effortless connectivity.

‍

Will my home phone number still work with an international eSIM?

Yes. Because GigSky provides you with a data-only eSIM, your phone number doesn’t change. So, you can stay logged into your usual messaging app accounts with uninterrupted access to your contacts and conversations. However, your home network provider may apply additional charges if you make or receive calls or send texts in your destination country without using internet-based apps like WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger.

How much data do I get with GigSky’s international eSIM plans?

GigSky offers a range of prepaid data plans ranging from 1GB to unlimited data. Ultimately, it’s simply a case of choosing the right plan based on your expected data usage while traveling abroad. If you need more data, you can purchase a top-up plan to extend your service at any time.

‍

How do I top up my international eSIM?

After turning on notifications during installation of your GigSky international data eSIM, you’ll receive alerts when you’re approaching a 0MB balance and when your plan duration is about to expire. Please note that top-ups are valid from the purchase day rather than adding days to your original digital SIM plan. For example, if your plan expires on the 15th of the month, and you buy a 7-day top-up on the 12th, your new expiration date will be the 19th (12 plus 7).

‍

Is GigSky internet and network coverage reliable?

Yes! At GigSky, we’re dedicated to providing high-quality, reliable network coverage so you don't have to rely on Wi-Fi hotspots.

Are GigSky international eSIM plans good value for money?

Yes. By offering local network coverage at affordable prices, the cost of a GigSky plan usually equates to a fraction of your typical data roaming fee.

‍

How do I check if my smartphone supports a GigSky eSIM abroad?

Most modern smartphones are eSIM compatible, provided your phone is unlocked for international use. However, some older devices may not support international or worldwide eSIM technology. Click here to check compatibility.

‍

Can I use my international eSIM on multiple devices?

You bet. GigSky international eSIM cards are versatile across various devices, including iPhones, certain Android smartphones, tablets, and even smartwatches. You can view a complete list of compatible devices here.

What should I do if I experience problems using my international eSIM?

Double-check your mobile device is running the latest version of the operating system and that your eSIM is turned on and selected for cellular data. If you’re sure your settings are correct and still experiencing problems, contact the GigSky Support team at help@gigsky.com.
