The (almost) 5-star eSIM
The eSIM was very easy to install and, once I reached my destination, I had a connection from the very first moment without having to worry about roaming.
Activation was quick and simple, and I had a connection the whole time with no hassle. Coverage and speed were very good.
I went on a trip around Latin America and had coverage everywhere, at a very good price. Highly recommended 💪🏼

More about the Ecuador eSIM
eSIM for Ecuador: internet without roaming
With our eSIM for Ecuador, you arrive at Quito or Guayaquil airport and already have mobile data instantly, without looking for a store or swapping your SIM card. The plan runs on the country's real networks, mainly Claro and Movistar, which are the carriers with the best 4G/LTE coverage in tourist areas. Everything activates from your phone with a QR code, so you keep using your regular number for WhatsApp while browsing on a local data line.
Roaming in Ecuador: why an eSIM works for you
Ecuador is not part of the European Union, so there's no "roam like at home" here. Using your local carrier's data can cost you between 10 and 15 € per day, and a single call or a few videos can spike your bill without warning. An eSIM Ecuador solves the problem at the root: you pay a fixed rate upfront, you know exactly what you're spending, and you forget about surprises when you get back. It's the simplest way to have internet in Ecuador without paying the usual expensive roaming.
How much does an eSIM for Ecuador cost?
The price goes up depending on the GB and days you need. For a short trip with maps, messaging, and social media, 1 or 3 GB is usually enough. If you're spending one or two weeks traveling the Sierra, the Coast, and the Amazon, or if you're sharing the connection, a plan of 5 to 10 GB is worth it. You can compare all the options and check the price of the eSIM Ecuador alongside the rest of all destinations before deciding.
eSIM vs physical SIM card in Ecuador
A physical SIM card in Ecuador means standing in line, showing your passport for registration, and swapping the chip, losing your number. The eSIM is 100% digital: you get it by email before you travel, install it at home with wifi, and arrive with data working. Plus, you can keep your regular SIM in the same phone and switch between both lines without removing anything.
Does the eSIM work in Quito, Guayaquil, and Cuenca?
Yes. Coverage from Claro, Movistar, and the state carrier CNT covers the big cities like Quito, Guayaquil, Cuenca, Ambato, and Manta, as well as tourist spots like Baños, Montañita, or the access points to Galápagos. In remote Amazon villages or high in the mountains, the signal can drop — that's normal with any SIM card in Ecuador — but in the usual destinations you'll have stable mobile data in Ecuador.
How do you activate the eSIM for Ecuador?
After purchase, you receive a QR code by email. You scan it from your phone's settings, select the eSIM as your data line, and that's it — no stores, no waiting. We recommend installing it with wifi before leaving home and activating it when you land. If it's your first time, follow our eSIM guide step by step, and you'll travel connected from minute one.
