How to buy an eSIM

Purchase Airalo mobile data plans (eSIMs) directly from your AstroPay app — no physical SIM card needed.

Written by Nina Montero

You can buy an Airalo eSIM directly from your AstroPay app and get mobile data in supported countries — without changing your physical SIM card.

What's an eSIM?

An eSIM is a digital SIM card built into your device. It gives you mobile data without needing a physical SIM, as long as your device is eSIM-compatible.

Benefits

  • Buy your eSIM in the AstroPay app, paid from your wallet balance.

  • Get activation instructions right after purchase.

  • Stay connected in supported countries while traveling.

  • Pick a plan that matches the data and duration you need.

How to buy

  1. Open the AstroPay app and browse the available Airalo eSIM plans.

  2. Pick a plan that fits your destination, data, and duration.

  3. Review the details (plan, data, validity, USD price) and confirm.

  4. The amount is deducted from your AstroPay USD balance.

  5. Install and activate the eSIM on your device following the instructions you receive.

Before you buy

  • Make sure your device supports eSIM technology.

  • Your AstroPay account must be active and have enough USD balance to cover the plan.

Refunds

Refunds only apply when there's a technical fault from Airalo, and within 5 days of purchase. Refunds are not issued for user errors during activation or for devices that don't support eSIM.
