Frequently Asked Questions

An eSIM (embedded SIM) is a virtual SIM card built right into your phone. Unlike physical SIMs, you don’t need to insert or remove a physical SIM card. Just download a plan digitally and connect. It’s an innovative and seamless way to stay connected, especially if you’re looking for a travel eSIM or switching between countries.

eSIM can be transferred only before installation; once installed, the same eSIM cannot be installed on another device.

A Niyo user can buy an eSIM for their friends and family (if they don’t have a Niyo account themselves) and transfer the QR Code to them from their device, but only before installation.

eSIM activation and installation are simple with Niyo. Once you buy your eSIM online via the Niyo app or website, we’ll send you a QR code. Just go to your phone’s settings, scan the code, and complete your eSIM setup in a few taps before you take off. The eSIM auto-activates the moment you land in your destination country.

You can convert your existing number to an eSIM in India by contacting your current telecom provider. If you’re looking for an international eSIM for travel, you can keep your physical SIM and use Niyo eSIM as a second line, no conversion needed.

An eSIM works like a traditional SIM, but it’s installed in your device. After installation, your phone connects to a mobile network in your destination country for easy eSIM activation using digital credentials. For global travellers, a travel eSIM like Niyo means you can stay online in 120+ countries without ever swapping physical SIM cards.

Yes. Most major eSIM providers in India allow you to convert your physical SIM to an eSIM card. Follow their instructions via SMS or app. For international travel, consider keeping your current number active and using Niyo as your dedicated international eSIM.

If you’re looking for the best eSIM for international travel, Niyo eSIM offers instant connectivity, plans starting at ₹50 (affordable eSIM price), and works in 120+ countries. It’s a smart pick for frequent flyers and first-time travellers alike.

Visit the Niyo website or app, select your destination, and plan your trip. You can buy eSIM online in minutes — no documents or physical delivery needed. Once you purchase, you’ll receive a QR code to complete your eSIM setup.

Niyo’s virtual SIM card gives you:
• No need to swap SIMs
• Instant eSIM installation with a QR code
• Instant eSIM activation across 120+ countries
• Competitive eSIM plans starting from ₹50
• App-based management, recharges & support
It’s a hassle-free upgrade from traditional SIM cards, especially for travel.

To ensure your eSIM activates correctly, follow these steps:

1. Make sure the eSIM is installed on your device
2. Enable the eSIM line for data
3. Turn on Data Roaming in your device settings
4. Ensure Niyo eSIM is set as the preferred SIM for data

Once these are set, your Niyo eSIM will automatically activate when you land and connect to a mobile network in your destination country. No manual activation is needed.

To check whether your device is eSIM compatible or not just follow the following steps:

  1. Open the Dialer app on your phone and dial *#06#
  2. If you see an EID number along with the IMEI number(s), your phone is eSIM compatible. If you don’t, your phone does not support eSIM.

Yes. Niyo works as a secondary travel eSIM, so you can keep your Indian number active for calls and SMS, while using Niyo for international data. It’s the best of both worlds.
