Europe Prepaid Travel eSIM

An eSIM is a digital SIM card embedded directly into your mobile device. It allows you to activate a mobile plan without needing to insert a physical SIM card — simply scan a QR code and you're connected.

Please note that not all devices support eSIM. Check your device's compatibility before purchasing.

Your device must meet these requirements:

• eSIM-capable (most smartphones from 2019 onwards)
• Carrier-unlocked (not locked to another network)

iPhone XS / XR and later models all support eSIM. For Android, check your device specs or contact your manufacturer. If unsure, please check our eSIM Compatibility List before purchasing.

No. Your phone must be carrier-unlocked to use this eSIM. If your device is locked to another network, please contact your home operator to unlock it before installation.

• Buy: Any time before your departure.
• Install: A few hours before your trip (you'll need a stable internet connection to download the eSIM).
• Activate: Once you arrive in Spain — turn on Data Roaming to activate your plan. Your credit validity starts from this point.

After purchase, you'll instantly receive a QR code in your order confirmation email. You can also find it anytime in your Orange Travel account (website or app) under My eSIMs. Simply scan the QR code to install and you're ready to go.

The QR code has no expiry date — it remains valid until scanned. However, each QR code can only be scanned once and installed on one device only. Once scanned, it cannot be reused or transferred to another device.

Your eSIM connects to Orange Spain's network, one of Spain's largest carriers, with 99% country coverage. You'll enjoy full 4G/5G speeds with no throttling or daily data caps. When roaming in other supported EU countries, you will connect to local partner networks.

You can request a refund if:

• Your device is not compatible
• You have changed your travel plans
• You have not yet activated your eSIM
• You experienced a technical issue and were unable to use the service

Refunds are processed back to your original payment method within 5–15 business days, subject to verification that the eSIM has not been used. Please note that top-ups are non-refundable.

Important: You can only download your eSIM once. Do not delete it — a new QR code cannot be issued.

1. Scan the QR code from your order confirmation email using your iPhone camera.
2. Tap Set Up when prompted on screen.
3. Optionally label your eSIM (e.g. "Orange Travel") to distinguish it from your personal SIM.

No. Each eSIM QR code can only be scanned once and is tied to a single device. It cannot be transferred, reused, or installed on a second phone. If you plan to switch devices, install the eSIM on your new device before scanning the QR code.

• Samsung Android: Settings → Connections → Mobile Networks → enable Data Roaming
• Google Pixel: Settings → Network & Internet → Mobile Network → select your Orange Travel SIM → enable Roaming

Important: You must enable Data Roaming specifically for your Orange Travel eSIM, as your phone recognises it as a roaming connection even when you have purchased international coverage.

APN settings are configured automatically on most devices. If you need to set them manually:

• Access Point Name (APN): orange
• Username: orange
• Password: orange

After saving, restart your device.

Yes! You can top up your eSIM as many times as needed via the Orange Travel website or app. Top-ups are credited within a few seconds and you'll receive a confirmation email. We recommend completing the current top-up before purchasing another, as multiple top-ups cannot be accumulated simultaneously. Please note that top-ups are non-refundable once applied.

Yes, data tethering and hotspot are supported with no usage restrictions. Simply enable Personal Hotspot (iPhone) or Mobile Hotspot (Android) in your device settings to share your connection with other devices.

Yes. Depending on your plan, you may be able to roam across EU/EEA countries at no extra cost, just like a local Spanish user. Data-only plans provide coverage in Spain, while plans with calls and SMS may include EU roaming. Check the specific inclusions on your product page for details.

It depends on the reason for expiry:

• Plan or credit expired: Simply top up your eSIM via the Orange Travel website or app to continue using it.

Try these steps in order:

1. Confirm Data Roaming is enabled for your Orange Travel eSIM in your device settings.
2. Verify your phone is carrier-unlocked (iPhone: Settings → General → About → Network Provider Lock = "No SIM restrictions").
3. Check APN settings are correct: APN / Username / Password all set to orange.
4. Toggle Airplane Mode on and off, then restart your device.
5. If still not working, do not delete your eSIM — contact our support team for assistance.

Depending on the plan you select, you may have voice and text included, or it may be a data-only plan. Plans labelled "Data + Calls + SMS" include unlimited calls and texts. Check the product page for the full inclusions of your specific plan.

Dial + (or 00), followed by the country code, then the local phone number. Remove the leading zero from the local number where applicable.

Example — calling Australia (+61): +61 4XX XXX XXX

They can call or text you on your Spanish phone number using the +34 country prefix. International rates from their plan may apply.

Alternatively, use internet-based apps such as WhatsApp, FaceTime, Viber, Facebook Messenger, or iMessage for free messaging and calls over data.

Your eSIM works as a second line on your phone (dual SIM). Keep your home SIM in the device with Data Roaming turned OFF for it, and set the Orange Travel eSIM as the active data line. This way, you can still receive calls and texts on your home number while using the eSIM for affordable local data.

• Activate voicemail: Dial +34 656 242 242 from your Orange line and follow the voice instructions to set up your greeting.
• Check messages: Dial 242 (free from your Orange number) to listen to voicemail.
• Disable voicemail: Dial ##002# and press the call key.

Note: When calling from abroad, use the full number +34 656 242 242 to access your voicemail.

Absolutely. Apps like WhatsApp, FaceTime, Skype, Viber, and Google Voice all work over your data connection and are a great way to make free calls and send messages while travelling.
