Where to purchase the Holafly eSIM for the USA?

The first step is for you to visit the official Holafly online store, or maybe you prefer to download the Android or iOS app to get your eSIM data plan for the USA.

How to purchase a Holafly eSIM for the USA?

In this guide, we’ll show you how to purchase the eSIM for the USA from Holafly using the website in a few steps!

Step 1: Visit the Holafly homepage

Visit the official Holafly website, where you’ll see the “Destinations” menu and a search bar. Let’s discuss both options! 

Step 2: Choose the eSIM for the USA

If you click the button “Destinations,” you’ll see a list of different options, and the USA eSIM is the first option among “Best Sellers” due to its high-quality service!

Once you click on the “USA” option, you’ll be taken to the Holafly eSIM for the USA page, where you can choose your data plan.

If you want to use the search bar, this option allows you to save some time and instantly search for your destination on the main page. Type “USA” and you’ll see the available eSIMs for visiting the country.

When you press on the “USA” option, you’ll be taken to the eSIM page to select the data for your trip!

Step 3: Pick the plan that best suits you

On the eSIM USA page, you can select the number of days you plan to stay in the country. No matter how many days you plan to buy, they all include an unlimited data plan.

Here’s what you need to do to select your eSIM for the USA:

  • Press on “Number of days” and select the exact amount of days you are traveling to the USA. 
  • Click “Number of eSIMs” to choose the number of eSIMs you need, depending on whether you are traveling alone or with a company.
  • After you have chosen the number of days and eSIMs, press “Get unlimited internet” to complete the process.
  • If you need to buy two eSIMs but don’t need both to work for the same duration, you’ll need to add both separately.

Step 4: Shopping cart

Before moving to the checkout, you’ll see a pop-up window at the right side of the site, where you can double-check your order, look at the final price, or add an additional eSIM with unlimited data for your trip.

You can proceed to the checkout to buy your virtual SIM card if all the information is correct.

Step 5: Purchase form

By clicking on “Checkout,” you’ll be taken to the payment page. Here, you can check again to see if your data packages are correct or if you need to make any changes before completing the purchase.

If everything is okay, you can select your preferred payment method. PayPal and Google Pay are available for express checkout, but you can also use credit cards.

If you choose PayPal or Google Pay, a new window will appear, and if all your data is stored, you can proceed with the payment with one click.

However, if you prefer to use a card, after filling out the form, you’ll be requested to add your credit card details or choose PayPal in case your card is linked to your account.
