Holafly international eSIM: App to manage the data plan

Having cellular internet is an essential requirement for travelers. For this reason, this app has become an excellent alternative to activate and manage eSIM with cellular data in more than 160 destinations.

This means spending time searching for a local operator. And many times, facing problems due to language and cultural barriers that are likely to complicate the process even more.

With this type of app now everything is easier! For example, Holafly users can buy eSIM cards through the online store and then download the international eSIM app on their cellphone to have control of active and non-active eSIMs. They can also check payments made and daily consumption.

For now, the Holafly app is available for iOS users and very soon for Android.
