👍 What we like

✓QR code is emailed immediately after checkout and setup takes about 30 seconds through native phone settings — no app to download
✓Top-ups bought from your LotsOfTravel account are added to your existing plan instantly, with no new QR code to install
✓Broad reach: 4501 live plans across 194 countries in our comparison, starting at $4.99
✓Dual-SIM friendly by design: the setup guide keeps your home number active for calls and verification texts while the eSIM handles data

👎 Worth noting

–No detailed refund policy is published on the official site, and a third-party review describes a strict stance once a plan is activated
–Support is email-only ([email protected]) with no live chat, so urgent mid-trip issues can be slower to resolve
–Installation requires an internet connection and LotsOfTravel recommends doing it 1-2 days before departure, so it is less convenient if you buy last-minute on arrival without Wi-Fi

2Install over Wi-Fi
Buy through the provider, then scan the QR code or use their app to add the eSIM to your phone before you travel.
3Connect on arrival

Other brandsMotorola Razr/Edge, Xiaomi 13+, Oppo Find, Huawei P40+ — most 2019+ flagships

Tip: open Settings and look for "Add eSIM" or "Add cellular plan" to confirm your device supports eSIM. Your phone must also be carrier-unlocked.

About LotsOfTravel

Everything happens on the LotsOfTravel website — no app is needed. Pick a destination and plan, pay by Apple Pay, Google Pay, or any major card such as Visa or Mastercard (payments are processed via Stripe), and a unique QR code is emailed immediately after payment. LotsOfTravel recommends installing the eSIM over Wi-Fi 1-2 days before departure, since installation needs an internet connection (iPhone: Settings > Cellular > Add eSIM > Use QR Code; Android: Settings > Network > SIMs > Add eSIM), then activating on arrival by enabling the eSIM data line and turning on data roaming for that line. If you run low on data, you buy a top-up from your LotsOfTravel account and it is added to the existing plan instantly, without installing a new QR code. Their guide suggests keeping your home SIM line active for calls and verification texts while routing data through the eSIM.

LotsOfTravel — quick answers

What is the cheapest LotsOfTravel eSIM plan?

The cheapest live LotsOfTravel plan in our comparison is $4.99. In total we track 4501 live plans across 194 countries, so most destinations have several data sizes and durations to choose from.

Can I use a LotsOfTravel eSIM alongside my regular SIM?

Yes — LotsOfTravel's own setup guide is built around a dual-SIM arrangement: your home SIM stays active for calls, texts, and verification codes, while the LotsOfTravel eSIM handles all data. In your phone settings you set the eSIM as the data line and enable data roaming for that line only, so you stay reachable on your usual number while abroad.

When should I install and activate a LotsOfTravel eSIM?

LotsOfTravel recommends installing the eSIM over Wi-Fi 1-2 days before departure, since installation needs an internet connection and this leaves time to troubleshoot. The QR code is emailed immediately after purchase. You then activate on arrival by enabling the eSIM data line and switching on data roaming for that line in your phone settings.

How do LotsOfTravel top-ups work if I run out of data?

You buy a top-up from your LotsOfTravel account on the website, and the extra data is added to your existing plan instantly. Unlike some providers, you do not need to install a new QR code or set up a second eSIM profile to keep using data.

Does LotsOfTravel have an app?

You don't need one. LotsOfTravel works entirely through the web: you buy plans on the website, receive the QR code by email, install it through your phone's native eSIM settings, and buy top-ups from your account in a browser. That keeps setup to roughly 30 seconds, though it also means data usage is tracked through your phone's own settings rather than a dedicated app.
