Before getting started we recommend that you:

  1. Make sure your phone is compatible with eSIM, with fully up-to-date software. You’ll find information about eSIM compatibility in our Device Compatibility Tool.

  2. Use a desktop or other secondary device to log in to My Account rather than your phone.

  4. Select between a Physical SIM or eSIM.
