eSIM Prepagada para Francia y Europa 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, popular compatible models include Samsung Galaxy S20 and later, Google Pixel 4 and later. 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 profile).
• Activate: Once you arrive in Europe — turn on Data Roaming to activate your plan. Your validity period starts from the moment the eSIM first connects to the network.

After purchase, you'll receive a QR code via email (delivery can take up to 24 hours). Simply scan the QR code with your phone to install the eSIM profile — no physical SIM card or store visit needed.

Your eSIM connects to the Bouygues Telecom network in France, one of France's three major carriers offering extensive 4G/5G coverage nationwide. When roaming in other supported European countries, you will connect to local partner networks.

Your eSIM works across 32 European countries including: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom, and Andorra.

Please note: Switzerland is not included in the coverage.

You can request a refund if your device is not compatible or you have not yet activated your eSIM. Refunds are processed back to your original payment method within 5–15 business days, subject to verification that the eSIM has not been used.

6. Keep your personal SIM as the default for calls and data while at home.

Yes — we recommend installing the eSIM a few hours before your departure while connected to Wi-Fi. However, do not turn on Data Roaming until you arrive at your destination, as this is when your plan's validity period begins.

After scanning the QR code, the eSIM profile typically downloads within a few minutes. However, in some cases, network activation may take up to 30 minutes. If your eSIM does not connect immediately after arriving at your destination, please wait patiently and do not delete the eSIM profile.

Your default eSIM PIN is 0000. We recommend changing it to a personal PIN after activation for security. You can change it in your phone's SIM settings.

Bouygues Telecom eSIM QR codes are reusable — you can keep your QR code and use it to install the eSIM on a new device if needed. However, the eSIM can only be active on one device at a time. Remove the eSIM from your old device before installing it on the new one.

Your plan validity depends on the package you purchased (typically 15 or 30 days from activation). The eSIM profile itself remains valid for 12 months, meaning you can recharge and reuse it for future trips within that period.

Yes — most Bouygues Travel eSIM plans include unlimited calls and SMS within Europe. This means you can make calls and send texts to numbers in any of the covered European countries at no extra charge. Check the product page for the exact 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

Note: Calls to destinations outside of Europe are not included in the unlimited allowance and will be charged per minute.

No — you can receive calls and SMS for free while in any of the covered European countries, regardless of where the caller is located.

They can call or text you on your French phone number using the +33 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 Bouygues 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 and calls.

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.
