The Best eSIM For India - Travel Roam For You

Anyone planning a trip to India needs to look into getting an eSIM to ensure they stay in contact with the people who matter. Travel Roam is here to help with that, so let’s talk about what’s on offer.

Travel in India means you’ll need a good eSIM. Picking the right one is key. We offer different data plans to suit your needs, varying plan lengths and data provision to suit any trip. All you need to do is ensure that you pick the right one for your needs.

Choosing an eSIM for India is easy when you know what things to keep in mind. We’ve highlighted the big factors for you to take a look at:

-Where will you be visiting during your time in india? For a lot of people, this influences how much data they need, and whether they need a regional or global plan - for many people, India is a stop on the journey, not the whole destination.

-How long will you be travelling? We offer plans of different lengths, so you can pick what you need.

You should never buy an eSIM before checking compatibility with your device. It’s a good habit to get into - trust us on that. Older models of phone don’t support using an eSIM, so you need to get one which does. Look for a phone which doesn’t have a fixed contract, and also for a phone which is eSIM compatible - this usually applies to most phones made in the last couple of years.

Buying and Installing a Travel Roam eSIM - Your Guide

To help you, we have put together a guide for buying and installing an eSIM in India.

1. Buy your eSIM

The first thing you need to do is go onto the Travel Roam website and buy an eSIM for yourself. We have tried to make this process easy-to-do and you can look at different plan lengths and data options to find what works for you.

Once you buy your eSIM, you will need to go and install it on your phone. There are three ways you can do this. You can follow the prompts to directly set up the eSIM, scan your QR code to install the eSIM that way, or manually input the details to your settings.

Once you have installed your eSIM, you will need to activate it. You need to check the activation policy for your eSIM, because some cards go live automatically upon installation. If that’s the case, wait until you get to India and then install the eSIM.

Now you’re ready to connect to an eSIM network. Once you are ready to connect, go to the settings of your device and find the option to access data roaming. The way you do this will vary from one device to the next.
