How can I check how much data I have left?

To check the data balance you have left, log in to our Holafly Center with the credentials we sent you by email when you made the purchase. You can also check your data balance from the data settings on your device.

When should I set up my eSIM?

up arrow

You need WiFi to set up your eSIM so we recommend that you install and activate your eSIM just before your departure. You can also wait until you arrive at your destination to activate the eSIM but remember that you need a prior WiFi connection for the set-up process.

How do I set up the eSIM on my device?

up arrow

After your purchase, we will send a QR code to your email. Either print the QR code or open it on your computer. On your cell phone, go to Settings > Mobile/Cellular Data > Add Data Plan and scan the QR code. Your phone will allow you to set up a specific name to this data plan. You will now be able to switch between your Holafly data plan and the original plan from your provider. The Holafly data plan will only work once you arrive at your destination. Once you land, turn on data roaming on your cellphone settings and activate the Holafly data plan. Check the phone’s user manual for more details on adding a data plan. All eSIM products come with comprehensive set-up instructions.

Can I share data with other devices?
