Why eSIMnow is the best value

Not the Cheapest. The One That Actually Works.

A low cost is no good if your signal fails when you need it. eSIMnow delivers full-speed data, three major local networks, hotspot sharing, and clear pricing. That keeps you connected for your whole United Kingdom trip.

  • Three Major Local Networks

    Your United Kingdom eSIM runs on GB - O2 5G, GB - Vodafone 5G, and GB - 3 5G. Three of the biggest mobile networks across the country.
    Walking through London, catching a train to Edinburgh, exploring the Cornish coast, or hiking in the Scottish Highlands, your connection stays steady.

  • No App to Download

    Your QR code is sent to your email as soon as you complete your purchase. There is no app to install and no account to create.
    Go to your phone settings, scan the code, and follow the simple steps. Your device is ready before you board your flight.

  • Full-Speed Data, Never Throttled

    This plan comes with no speed limits. You can use your data at the full speed the network provides from the first day of your trip to the last.

  • Hotspot Included

    Need to get your laptop or tablet online? Share your phone's connection with them. Hotspot sharing is part of every United Kingdom plan.
