Payment by card & guarantees
Plans for Asia are charged in UAE dirhams by card: 5 GB for 30 days, for example, is charged exactly AED 33.99; the charge is in UAE dirhams. The seller is registered outside the UAE, so some banks may still add a foreign-merchant fee; your card must allow online payments to sellers abroad. How card payment works.
Sold by JET SHARING MOBILITY INC (United States); your bank statement shows JET SHARING. Full refund within 30 days of purchase while the eSIM has not connected to any network. If the eSIM doesn't work and it isn't your phone's fault, we refund the payment whether or not it was installed. Questions: WhatsApp or support@esimgo.ae.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a day of mobile data cost in Asia?
On plans with a fixed data allowance, AED 0.87 to AED 29.28 a day in Asia: 3 GB for 30 days at AED 25.99 is the lowest daily price, 50 GB for 7 days the highest. Cheapest plan that lasts the whole trip: for 7 days, 1 GB at AED 2.71 a day; for 15 days, 2 GB at AED 1.53 a day; for 30 days, 3 GB at AED 0.87 a day. Unused days are not refunded.
Does one eSIM work in all the countries in Asia?
Yes, in the 18 countries listed on this page: when you cross a border, your phone joins the local network on its own, with the same profile. If you are visiting only one country, the plan for that country is usually cheaper.
What if the eSIM doesn't work when you land in Asia?
Check, in this order: data roaming is on for the eSIM line, the eSIM is chosen as the line for mobile data, and airplane mode is off. Then the APN: on this plan it is entered by hand on Android, wbdata. Still no connection? See what to check when the eSIM has no signal abroad.
General questions have their own pages: how card payment works, refund policy, how to install an eSIM and help and FAQ.
